The appropriate word for blank (ii) is "mustn't".
Explanation:
When we look at the sentence "You mustn't use your cell phone during school hours," we can understand that using a cell phone during school hours is not allowed. This is a rule that students must follow.
The word "mustn't" is used to express prohibition or to indicate that something is not allowed. It is a stronger form of "shouldn't" or "can't". In this context, it means that using a cell phone during school hours is prohibited or not allowed.
Let's break down the sentence and understand its components:
- "You" refers to the person being addressed, which in this case is the students.
- "mustn't" is the modal verb used to express prohibition.
- "use" is the main verb that indicates the action of utilizing or operating something.
- "your cell phone" refers to the electronic device that allows communication and access to various applications and functions.
- "during school hours" specifies the time period when the prohibition is in effect, which is the duration of the school day.
By using "mustn't" instead of "can't" or any other option, the sentence clearly states that using a cell phone during school hours is not permitted. It emphasizes the rule and the importance of adhering to it.
In conclusion, the appropriate word for blank (ii) is "mustn't" because it accurately conveys the prohibition of using a cell phone during school hours.
