1. Read the text below and fill in the right modal verb (can, might, must (x3), have to, can not) in
the correct tense and form with the main verbs in the brackets. (7 points)

I remember going to the British Museum one day to read up the treatment for some slight ailment of
which I had a touch. I read all I came to read and then I began to study diseases, generally, turning the
leaves idly.

I came to typhoid fever, read the symptoms and discovered I (1) might be having (have) it for months
without knowing it. Cholera I had with severe complications and diphtheria I (2) have to be (be) born
with. I was relieved to find that Bright’s disease I had only in a modified form and, so far as that was
concerned, I (3) can live (live) for years. The only disease I (4) must conclude (conclude) I had not got
was housemaid’s knee.

I sat and pondered. I thought what an interesting case I (5) must be (be) from a medical point of view. I
was hospital in myself. All students need do would be to walk round me and after that take their
diploma.

I tried to feel my heart. I (6) can not feel (not feel) my heart. I think now that it must have been there all
the time, and must have been beating, but cannot account for it. But the work was waiting for me and at
3 p.m. I (7) must met (meet) my colleague in the hospital despite the fact I felt not well.

I had walked into that reading-room a happy, healthy man, I crawled out a decrepit wreck.
(After "Three Men in a Boat" by Jerome K. Jerome)

5. Use the words and phrases from the list below to complete the text (10 points).

Required special, minor variations, qualified for, black populations, adult citizens, property or income,
convicted criminals, extended, means of ensuring, privileged groups.

The history of the suffrage, or franchise, is one of gradual extension from limited (1) privileged groups
in society to the entire adult population. Nearly all modern governments have provided for universal
adult suffrage. It is regarded as more than a privilege (2) extended by the state to its citizenry. In democ-
racies it is the primary (3) means of ensuring that government are responsible to be governed. The basic
qualifications of suffrage are similar everywhere, although there are (4) minor variations from country
to country. Usually only the (5) adult citizens of a country are eligible to vote there. The insane, certain
classes of (6) convicted criminals, and those punished for certain electoral offences are generally barred
from the suffrage.
Before the evolution of universal suffrage, most countries (7) required special qualifications of their
voters. In the 18th-19th century Britain, for instance, there was a (8) property or income qualification. At
one time, only men (9) qualified for the suffrage. Thus, for example, South Africa, at one time, and the
Old South of the United States did not permit their (10) black populations to vote.
