Average: 3.7 (3 votes)

Read through the beginning of this classic children's story and choose the correct missing word.

Once upon a time, in the middle of winter, when snowflakes fell like feathers, a certain Queen _1_ at her window sewing. The frame of the window by which she sat was _2_ of fine black ebony-wood and, as she sewed, and as she looked out at the fast-falling snow, the Queen happened to _3_ her finger with her needle. She said to herself:
"I wish I _4_ have a little daughter with a skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony."
Well, it wasn't long before, sure enough, a little daughter was born to her and, as the little thing began to _5_ and toddle about, she was the prettiest little girl you could wish to see, with a white skin, rosy cheeks, red lips, merry dark eyes and shining silky black hair. _6_ this little Princess's real name was, I don't know, but what I do know is that everyone called her "Snow-White."

Thank you for the Lesson Smile

should or could

We say 'I wish I could' because 'could' shows a possibility and can be used for hypothetical (unreal) situations.
'Should' is usually used to show a duty.
