2 Will the meaning of sentence (a) change if we replace "could" with "must" or "might"
If we replace "could" with "must", the meaning of sentence (a)
will change. It means the speaker is quite sure about the statement.
if we replace "could" with "might", the meaning of sentence (a) will
remain more or less the same. "Could" and "might" in affirmative
sentences have a similar meaning when indicating possibility.
3 What happens if we change "must" and "might" in sentences (b) and (c) into "could"
If we change must" in sentence (b) into "could",
it means the speaker is not sure about the statement,
and it's only a possibility. If we change "might" in sentence
(c) into "could", it means it's impossible for the children
to receive their presents.

To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Day, we usually have a few days off. It is a great occasion for a family to get together. During the festival, we often drink some wine. Besides, there is a kind of traditional Chinese food—moon cakes. The whole family usually admire the moon as they eat moon cakes. People often visit their friends and relatives with some delicious moon cakes and some fresh fruits. This festival is one of the most important festivals in China, which is held to celebrate the harvest, so no matter how busy they are, people usually have a thorough cleaning and decorate their house with some beautiful pictures about moon and so on.
