Complete the sentences using a verb in the present tense.

1 Don't worry, I’ll go and see the lawyer before I sign the contract

2 l think our Sales Director will leave as soon as _____________________________

3 You needn’t wait for Mr Takashi. I'll stay here until _____________________________

4 My boss will be delighted if _____________________________

5 Everyone is very stressed, but things will get better when _____________________________

6 l am fairly sure that I will get promoted as soon as _____________________________

A If and unless Unless means the same as if... not. It always refers to the conditional part

of the sentence and not the result part of the sentence:

If he doesn’t get here soon, we will have to start the meeting without him.

(CONDITION) (RESULT)

Unless he gets here soon, we will have to start the meeting without him.

(CONDITION) (RESULT)

Interaction e-booklet, Level 9


We often use not + unless, which means only ... if, when we want to emphasize a condition:

They will only sign the contract if we give them an additional discount.

They won’t sign the contract unless we give them an additional discount.

B lf and in case We use in case to talk about precautions we will take before a problem
100
happens. We use if to talk about what we will do after a problem happens:

We are going to insure the shipment in case the goods get damaged in transit. (We will take

out insurance first; the problem may or may not happen afterwards.)

If the goods get damaged in transit, well make a claim. (The damage may happen, and we

will make a claim afterwards.)

Note that in sentences with in case, we often use going to rather than will because we are

often talking about something we have already decided to do

C Provided that, We can use provided that/providing, as long as, and so long as when we want to

as long as, etc. emphasize a condition. Provided that and as long as mean if and only if (providing

and so long as are a little less formal than provided that and as long as):

I will agree to these conditions provided that you increase my salary by 8.5%. (I will only

agree if you give me more money.)

The strike will be successful as long as we all stay together.

(It will only succeed if we all stay together.)

Interaction e-booklet, Level 9


Note that we use the same sentence-pattern as with other if—sentences.

D So that We use so that to explain what the result or purpose of an action will be:

I’ll take a credit card so that we don’t run out of money.

(The credit card will stop us from running out of money)

A Form The second conditional is formed by using if+ past tense and would + infinitive:

IF + PAST TENSE WOULD + INFINITIVE


101
If I knew her number, I would send her a fax.

COMMON MISTAKES: We do not use would in the if part of the sentence:

WRONG: If trains would be more reliable, more people would use them.

RIGHT: lf trains were more reliable, more people would use them.

The if-clause can come in the first part of the sentence, or the second:

If I knew her number, I would send her a fax.

I would send her a fax if l knew her number.

B imaginary situations We can use the second conditional to refer to an action or state we imagine:

1 lf these machines were not so expensive, we would buy them.

(But they are expensive, and we are not going to buy them.)

2 lf l lost my job tomorrow, I would move to London to find another one.

(l don’t think l will lose my job, but l understand the possible consequences)

In 1 we are talking about the present, and imagining a situation that is different from reality.

In 2 we are talking about a possible event in the future; however, by using the second

conditional we make it clear that we do not really think it will happen.

C Variations It is also possible to use might and could instead of would:

If we had the finance, we could expand much more rapidly.

If the terms of the contract were different, we might accept it.

In the if-clause, we can use were instead of was. This is very common when we give advice

using the expression lf l were you ...

Interaction e-booklet, Level 9


If I were you, I would have another look through those figures.

D First or second conditional?

lf we think that a future event is reasonably likely, we use the first conditional:

lf the investment grows at 6% a year, it will be worth £220,000 in ten years.

(This is likely.)
102
lf we are talking about an event that we think is unlikely or impossible, we

use the second conditional:

lf I had as much money as Bill Gates of Microsoft, l would retire.

(But l haven’t and l never will.)

Conditional Type 2

Change the verbs in brackets using would + infinitive or the past tense.

A: My session with the career counsellor was a bit of a waste of time.

B: Really? Why?
(1)
A: Well, firstly, he recommended moving to London, but that’s impossible. If I _____ (get) a job in London, I'll
(2)
_____ (have) to spend at least four hours a day on the train, and I’m not going to do that.

B: Couldn’t you move?

A: No, because if l (3)_____ (move) to London, I (4)_____ (need) to sell the house, and I don’t want to do that at the

moment.

B: Did he have any other ideas?


(5)
A: He suggested retraining to become an accountant, but that’s not a solution either. Even if _____ (start) next

week, I (6)_____ (not/be) qualified for at least three years, and that is too long. So I don’t really know what I’m going

to do.
