Perhaps you could find some articles about laws, customs and rules in different countries of the world - combine culture and grammar - e. g. which stuff is allowed in some countries and forbidden in others, when are you allowed to vote or drive, etc. what are people supposed to do/eat at certain holidays, etc.

Marina,
 
It �s difficult.
Here are some websites regarding modals with some practice sentences.

TOPICS - I would choose just one of these!"

Control of the Internet

Breast feeding babies in public

�I have chosen only (for example) 2 countries to discuss ...�.  Keep it short, because 40 minutes is not very long!

�For example, In China you CAN ... but you MAY not ... and you MUST ...�  etc.

�In India you SHOULD not ... but in certain circumstances you COULD ... you CAN and you OUGHT TO ...�  etc.

You could contrast 2 countries: "In China you CAN ..., but in India you CAN NOT ..."
�Now, students, what Rules and Regulations/attitudes/customs exist in your country about the INTERNET ... (or)  BREAST FEEDING?  What do the other students in the class think about that?"  (Class involvement!)

I hope that this helps you.

I am sorry that it is so brief, but I (and you) have little free time!
