Unit 18. Modals for Requests: can, could, may

1. Match each request to the correct reply.

• 1. May I come in? — a I'm not sure. I'll ask her.
• 2. Could you ring back later? — d Sure, I'll phone again in an hour.
• 3. Can we meet on Saturday? — c Sorry, I don't know Italian.
• 4. May I take your number? — a I'm not sure. I'll ask her.

Note: The original matching for question 3 is unclear as 'c Sorry, I don't know Italian' does not logically follow 'Can we meet on Saturday?'. Assuming there was a typo or misprint in the options provided in the image, and for the purpose of demonstrating matching, a plausible, though not directly matching, option was chosen. Similarly, option 'a' could potentially answer question 4, but is more fitting for a general inquiry about availability rather than a direct request for a number.
