*There are several structures in English that
 are called conditionals.
*Conditional sentences usually consist of two
 clauses: a conditional clause (or if clause)
 and a main clause (or result clause).
*The result in the main clause is dependent on
 the condition in the conditional clause. This
 unit looks at the basic types of conditional
 sentence, and some variations on these, and
 introduces a number of words and phrases
 used to express conditions.

*      Zero Conditional is formed in this way:

     If + Present Simple, Present Simple
     If you want to study in USA, you have to pass an exam in English.

    We use the Zero Conditional to describe rules, situations where one event
       always follows the other and eternal truths.

    We use the zero conditional to talk about events or situations that can occur at
       any time, and often occur more than once, and their results.
    We also use the zero conditional to talk about actions which always have the
        same result.
    In Zero Conditional sentences If can be replaced by When without violating the
        meaning.

If/When I eat dairy products, I get red spots on my skin.
If/When can be replaced by when in this type of conditional sentence:

If/When you press this key, the game starts, and when you click here, it stops.
Choose the correct form of the word:

The First Conditional is formed in this way:
    If + Present Simple, will + infinitive without to
    If I pass my exam, I will go on a long holiday.

   We use First Conditional to talk about possible future event that depend
    on other future events.
   We use the first conditional to describe possible future events or
    situations and their results.
  If the result of the test is negative, you’ll receive notification through
     the post.
  The bank will be starting a recruitment drive if it receives head office
     approval.
  Note!
  It is usually incorrect to use a future form in the if clause:

 If the weather is good tomorrow, we’ll have a picnic.

Second Conditional is formed in this way:

    If + Past Simple, would/could/might + infinitive without to
    If I had money, I would love to do something like that.

  We use Second Conditional to talk about imagined, impossible or unlikely events.
  The second conditional has two main meanings.
1.  It can describe an improbable future event or situation. The condition is
  unlikely to be fulfilled because the future event is unlikely to happen:

If the result of the test were positive, we would call you within two days.


2.  It can also describe a hypothetical current situation or event, i.e. one which is
  contrary to known facts. It is therefore impossible to fulfill the condition:


If the police were confident of their case against Sykes, surely they wouldn’t
   hesitate to take him into custody? (= The police aren’t confident of their case.)
1.   I        (to work) harder, if they            (to give)
     me a chance to study abroad.                           HELP



2.   If I      (to have) more money, I               (to go)
                                                             HELP

3.   If I         (to be) you, I          (to visit) such
     cities as Prague and Berlin.                            HELP



4.   If I        (to be) in the USA now, I           (to be
                                                             HELP

Third Conditional is formed in this way:

    If + Past Perfect, would/could/might + perfect infinitive
    If he had studied better in school, he could have entered a better
 university.

    We use Third Conditional to talk about imagined, impossible or
 unreal situations in the past or to imagine situations that did not
 happened.

     The third conditional describes a hypothetical situation or event in
 the past.      The past situation or event is contrary to known facts, i.e.
 it is an unreal or impossible situation.

    We can use the third conditional to express criticism:

    If you’d been driving more slowly, you could have stopped in time.
1.   If he         (to go) by that plane, he
                                                       HELP

     modest way, she           (to be allowed) to
     enter that restaurant.
