Hello!
I would like to ask you for help. I've been learning contitional sentences so far. So, if you could just check these sentences, I'd be very grateful.
1) It rained all day. If the weather hadn't been so bad, we would have gone out.
2) We expect Mary to be here soon. If she doesn't arrive, we'll phone her.
3) I sleep badly. If I don't get enought sleep, I don't get much work done.
4) We went to Paris. If we hadn't gone to Paris, we wouldn't have had such a good time.
5) My brother doesn't do any work. If he studied harder, he would pass the exams.
6) Jane and John like each other. If the asked her to dance, she would say yes.
7) Jenny's very sociable. If you ask her to a party, she always comes.
8) I did German at school. If I had done English, would I have got a better job?
9) There's a bus. If we get on that one, we'll arrive in time.
10) I can't see a bus. But even if we catched a bus now, we would be late.
The red parts are those, where I had to fill the correct forms in.
Appreciate your help,
Emma
