@bubu,
Quote:My mother looked at me angrily. "I know " she said, "you are supposed to be a writer and I suppose you are.
As Roger noted, suppose = assume, which is strong enough that it can be equated with a modal meaning in the range of 'probably/likely/should'. It doesn't mean all of those all the time.
While 'probably/likely/should' express the opinion of the speaker, 'be supposed to' connotes that this is coming from some other source, usually a higher authority.
Examples:
You should do your homework.
[My opinion that it's a good thing to do your homework]
You're supposed to do your homework.
[Me, expressing that some higher authority, maybe a parent or teacher, believes you should be doing your homework]
"I know " she said, "you are supposed to be a writer [I hear on good source that you are a writer]
I suppose you are [you probably are].
