碽 � is correct.
And sometimes, as in your example, you can use 碼lready � in a negative sentence.

I 磀 also include shouldn 磘 have finished as a correct sentence, although can 磘 have finished expresses surprise and disbelief much more strongly. Might have finished implies that the students could be finished, not an impossibility. |

the only thing is... �shouldn 磘 have finished � is not among the options... So, I 磀 also say 碆 � is the right answer...

I agree that "can 磘 have finished" is the correct answer among the choices, and that "shouldn 磘 have finished" would also be correct, but it isn 磘 one of the choices. Another possibility is "couldn 磘 have finished".
Also, "already" is definitely correct here, since it means "sooner than expected", which is what happened in this situation.

unluckily i chose "should have finished" as i thought
a) "can 磘 have +pp" form is incorrect ...i have never seen such a form before!
b) "already" is for the affirmative forms only in the present perfect !
i was really confused! |

It is can 磘 have because of the word impossible. Should have in a different context could have also worked. |
