CONDITIONAL´S PRACTICE

 Two weeks ago, we learnt the First conditional


Form: if + simple present, will –future
Example: If I find her address, I’ll send her an invitation.

send w ill receive


1. If you (send) this letter now, she (receive) it tomorrow.

2. If I (do) this test, I (improve) my English.

3. Peggy (go) shopping if she (have) time in the afternoon.

4. Simon (go) to London next week if he (get) a cheap flight.

 Now we have to learn Second conditional.


Form: if simple past, conditional (would infinitive)
It is possible but very unlikely, that the condition will be fulfilled.
Example: If I found her address, I would send her an invitation.

had w ould sail


1. If we (have) a yacht, we (sail) the seven seas.

2. If he (have) more time, he (learn) karate.

10. She (not / talk) to you if she (be) mad at you.


 Third Conditional
Form: if + Past Perfect, Conditional (= would + have + Past Participle)
