Объяснение:

формула Present Perfect : have/has + V3/V-ed

так как в 4-ом предложении нам дан глагол have, то мы используя формулу PP и have заменяем на had и впереди используем have, получается have had.

также, если перевести предложение " Я был сонным в это утро, но сейчас я чувствую себя энергично! Я уже выпил немного кофе.

предложение используется в настоящем времени и действие совершилось к настоящему моменту, закончилось только что. действие , результат = настоящее.
