B - Right or Wrong? You need your sleep. a-You should not (shouldn't) stay up late. b- You should  (shouldn't) stay not up late. c-You ought to not stay up late. d-You ought to not stay up late.		NEGATIVE: should + not = shouldn't (Ought to is usually not used in the negative.)
C - Right or Wrong? a-Bob: I'm going to be late. What should do I ?    Tom: Run b-Bob: I'm going to be late. What should I do?    Tom: Run		QUESTION: should + subject + main verb (Ought to is usually not used in questions.)
D - Right or Wrong? 1- a-Bob: I'm tired today.     Tom: You should take a nap./You ought to take a nap. b-Bob: I'm tired today.     Tom: You should to take a nap./You ought take a nap. 2- a-Bob: I'm tired today.   Tom: Maybe you should take a nap./Maybe you ought to take a nap. b-Bob: I'm tired today.  Tom: You should Maybe take a nap./You ought to Maybe take a nap.		The use of ‘maybe’ with ‘should’ and ‘ought to’ softens the advice. compare: In (1): Tom is giving definite advice. He is stating clearly that he believes going home for a nap is a good idea and is the solution to Bob's problem. In (2): Tom is making a suggestion: taking a nap is one possible way to solve Bob's problem.
