Hi there, Jo! Thank you for your composition today!  Regarding your query, we use \"must\" to show that we are certain something is true. We are making a logical deduction based upon some clear evidence or reason. We can use these modal verbs (also called modals of deduction, speculation or certainty) when we want to make a guess about something. We choose the verb depending on how sure we are. In sentence #3, we used \"must have + past participle\" to talk about the past. I hope this is clear. Take care and have a nice day! T. JanE ^^ HOMEWORK FOR TODAY:1.
