He _______ be lazy, but he is not stupid.
Answer: D
The answer is may: 'He may be lazy, but he is not stupid.'
'May' here makes a concession: it admits something may be true before the contrast introduced by 'but'.
'Needn't' expresses lack of necessity, 'mustn't' prohibition, and 'shall' future or obligation; none of them fits the pattern of conceding a point before 'but'.
