В первом предложении мы используем модальный глагол "could" в форме прошедшего времени для выражения уверенности в том, что что-то не могло произойти в прошлом. Во втором предложении используется третье условное предложение для выражения предположения о том, что могло бы произойти в прошлом, если бы условие выполнилось. Далее, в третьем предложении используется модальный глагол "must have" + третья форма глагола, чтобы выразить предположение о прошлом с высокой уверенностью. В четвертом предложении также используется конструкция "must have" + третья форма глагола для выражения уверенности в прошлом событии, которое могло повлиять на настоящее. В пятом предложении используется пассивный залог "hasn't been given" для выражения отсутствия действия, совершенного над субъектом. В шестом предложении используется модальный глагол "must be" + настоящее простое время для выражения предположения о текущем действии.
