Modal Verbs

• Modal verbs help in defining the possibility and probability of an event. It also refers to obligations, requests, permissions, commands, suggestions, and so on.

• In the given sentence, the listener is expected to not give up, and he also should not give up for his good. Thus, 'should' is used.

• 'Should have' and 'ought to have ' do not follow the format of the sentence.

• 'Shall' does not put an obligation. It shows a probability. Thus, it is not used.
