Quick Grammar Aid - Modals

1. We use WILL / SHALL as modals to make predictions and state facts about the future:

There will be strong winds tomorrow in the south of the country.

We’ll meet you outside the coffee shop.

2. We use WILL / SHALL to announce decisions and to make offers:

Which size do you want? Medium or large? - I’ll have large. (decision )

Wait. He will open the door for you. (offer)

3. When we use SHALL I and SHALL WE in questions it is usually to make suggestions:

It’s getting late. Shall we go home?

1. SHOULD HAVE + past participle can mean something that would have been a good idea, but that you didn't do it.

I should have studied harder! (= I didn't study very hard and so I failed the exam. I'm sorry about this now).

2. SHOULDN'T HAVE + past participle means that something wasn't a good idea, but you did it anyway.

I shouldn't have eaten so much cake!

(= I did eat a lot of cake and now I don't feel good.)

3. We can also use this to talk about something that would have happened if everything was fine in the past, but hasn't happened.

Lucy should have arrived by now, but she hasn't.

6. In groups of 3, think about a short list (3-4 names) of people who in your opinion have made the greatest contribution to the modern world in the field of science and technology. Share your names in class. Why those people?
