Use of English - part 2

In Paper 3, part 2 of the CAE exam you must complete a text using only ONE word in each empty space. There aren't any given options because the missing words are function words or structural words. This means that the words you need to use are the only possibility so that the sentences are grammatically correct, or lexically correct. 
For example, in the following sentence, how many possibilities can you use to fill in the space? 

They ought ___ finish this on time. 
As you can see, the only word that fits is TO

 You can practise this part of the exam with the following activity.
