In English, some structures look similar, such as the “if” structure in this module and that in Module 5. Comparing similar structures and making notes can help you learn the structures better.
Find the sentences with “if” in the letters.
if 意为“是否”，相当于whether
If引导的条件状语从句表示某种假设情况，主句表示这种假设导致的结果。从句如果用一般现在时，主句的谓语动词多用一般将来时，有时也用“情态动词+动词原形”。
Read the “if” sentences in Module 5. Compare the differences between these sentences and the ones in Module 6.
If you ever go to London, make sure you visit the Science Museum. (P 38)
If you want to join our team, practise more after class. (P 39)
If you want to learn more about the Long March, go to the first floor. (P 39)

Dear Diana,
Last week, we had a history exam at school but I didn’t study for it. I was really worried, because if I fail exams, my parents will get angry with me. In the exam, I was sitting very near Tom and I realised I could see his answers. So I copied them. I knew it was wrong to cheat, but I didn’t want to fail the exam.
Yesterday, when our teacher gave us our results, she gave Tom zero marks because she thought he had copied from me.
I’m worried that if I tell the teacher the truth, she’ll give me zero marks, and my parents will be very angry. What should I do Should I tell my parents first Should I tell the teacher
