Hi, Okedia O. Kakak bantu jawab ya.

“From the dialogue we can conclude that the minister ...." berarti “Dari dialog dapat disimpulkan bahwa menteri...”

Untuk dapat menjawabnya, perhatikan arti penggalan teks berikut:
Secretary: I know I'm sure that the minister would have attended the meeting If she had returned from middle east. (Saya yakin bahwa ibu menteri akan sudah menghadiri rapat jika dia telah kembali dari timur tengah).

Maka, dapat disimpulkan bahwa ibu menteri tidak dapat menghadiri rapat karena belum kembali dari timur tengah.

Sehingga, kalimat jawaban menggunakan Present Perfect Tense yaitu tense yang digunakan untuk menerangkan tindakan yang telah dilakukan di masa lampau dan masih berlangsung hingga saat ini.

Rumusnya:
S + have/has + not + V3 + O + C

Have digunakan untuk subjek I, you, we dan they.
Has digunakan untuk subjek she, he dan it.

Jadi, jawabannya adalah "From the dialogue we can conclude that the minister hasn't returned from  middle east."

Thank you. Happy learning!
