Grammar
一、if引导的条件状语从句
if ?“如果,假如”:“主将从现” ? if 引导的是条件状语从句,另一句是主句,
f it isn’t rainy tomorrow , ?I will go on a picnic.
主从句可互换位置,即:I will go on a picnic ,if it isn’t rainy tomorrow.
二、if引导的从句中,主句也可用含有情态动词或是祈使句,如:
If you are an animal-lover, you may feel sad about it.
Don’t miss this programme if you like music.
注意:有了情态动词或祈使句,就不要用将来时了。
三、unless 引导的条件状语从句
unless “除非,如果...不”,相当于“if...not” 其他用法和if类似,如:
Unless it rains, the game will be played.= If it does not rain, the game will be played.
