Conditional Sentences (2)How does Henry remember something?If you make the picture big, strange or silly, you will remember it better.We have already learnt to use conditional sentences to talk about probable results.We can also use conditional sentences to talk about results that will certainly happen.If you put salt into water, it disappears.The if-clause talks about a possible action.The main clause talks about the result
that will certainly happen.When we use a conditional sentence to talk about something that will certainly happen, both verbs should be in (the simple present tense/ the simple future tense).We can also say: Salt disappears if you put it into water.Ex. A1Possible actions
If you take a fish out of water,
If you switch off the lamp,
If you put wood into water,
If you water a plant,
If you drop a glass,Results
it grows.
it dies.
the room becomes dark.
it breaks.
it floats.A2 In pairs, make conversations about the sentences in A1 on page 103. Follow the example.S1: What happens if you take a fish out of water?
S2: It dies.
S1: Are you sure?
S2: Of course, I’m sure. If you take a fish out of water, it dies. A3 Complete these sentences with the words in brackets.If you _______ ice, ____________________________ water.
(turns/ heat/ it/ into)
If you _______ steam, _________________________ water.
(into/ cool/ turns/ it)
3. Oil _______________________________ water.
(on/ floats/ pour/ it/ you/ if)
Water ____________________________ it.
(you/ heat/ boils/ if)heatit turns intocoolit turns intofloats if you pour it onboils if you heatB. if…not and unlessThe word unless can mean if… not. For example, the two sentences below have the same meaning:If you do not get enough sleep every night, you will not remember things well.
Unless you get enough sleep every night, you will not remember things well.We can also put the if-clause and the unless-clause after the main clause.You will be late for school if you do not leave now.
unless you leave now.Ex. B1A
We will have a picnic tomorrow
I will finish the book today
Unless you want to watch something,
I am going to buy a dress for my mother
Unless you practise playing the piano every day.B
you will not play it well.
if it does not rain.
