Modulations usually take place between highly-related keys (those with the most common notes). See the table below.

A B C# D E A D A G F# E
Notice how we end the key of A with a strong authentic cadence; but immediately use a phrase with G instead of G{{s}}, to differentiate between the keys of A and D Major. We also use an E in the first measure, but Em in the second. This emphasizes the modulation, with separation between phrases, even though the 2 keys share 6 of their 7 notes.
