Goals
●To learn to use
Second
conditional and Should for advice
●To listen and talk about
imagined life
Procedures
Warming up by learning
about Second conditional and
Should for advice
The
second conditional (also called conditional type 2) is a structure used for
talking about unreal situations in the present or in the future. This page will
explain how the second conditional is formed, and when to use it.
The structure of a second conditional sentence
Like a first conditional, a second
conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an "if" clause and a main
clause:
if clause |
main clause |
If I had a million dollars, |
I would buy a big
house. |
If the "if" clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the
"if" clause comes second, there is no need for a comma:
main clause |
if clause |
I would buy a big house |
if I had a million
dollars. |
We use different verb forms in each part of a second
conditional:
if clause |
if + subject +
simple past verb* |
main clause |
subject + would +
verb |
1a Talking about imaginary
situations
What
would you do if you had a lot of
money?
If I had
a lot of money, |
I would
give it to charity. |
If I had
a lot of money, |
I would
buy snacks. |
If I had
a lot of money, |
I would
give it to Hope Project. |
If I had
a lot of money, |
I would
buy books for the poor. |
1b
Listening and numbering
Now you
are going to listen and number the pictures 1 to 3 in the order you hear
them.
Tapescript
Girl
1: Hey, did you see this newspaper article? An old man had a million
dollars. And he gave it to charity.
Boy
1: Wow, what a nice
man!
Girl
1: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Boy
1: If I had a million dollars, I'd give the money to the
zoo. I want to help the
pandas.
Girl
1: That's a gook idea! I know
what I'd
do. I'd
buy a big house for my family.
Girl
2: Really? I'd
put the money in the bank. Then I'd
just watch it grow!
Boy
2: Hmmmm… I think I'd
give the money to medical research. I'd
want to help other people. |
Now listen again and write down the sentences with Second conditional and Should for advice
1c Doing
pairwork
Let’s pretend that we are the people in the picture on page 26.
Talk with your partner about what you would do if you had a million
dollars.
Look. This old man had a million dollars, and he gave it to
charity. |
Wow! What would
you do if
you won a million dollars? |
I’d give it to medical research. |
I’d take a chance to achieve my dream of flying to the
moon. |
If I won
a million dollars, I'd stop working and become a professional
runner. |
I’d go to an old people’s home to help them. |
I’d volunteer at the hospital twice every
week. |
2a Listening and
circling
Listen to the tape and circle the reasons in the box on page 27
why Larry is nervous.
Tapescript
Girl 1: Where
are you going, Larry?
Boy 1: To
Tom’s party.
Girl 1: Lucky
you! I’d love to go to that party!
Boy 1: Yeah,
well, I’m a little nervous. I don’t know what to wear.
Girl 1: If I
were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
Boy 1: And I
don’t have a present. What if everyone brings a present?
Girl
1: If I were you, I’d take a
small present—a pen or
something. Keep it in your pocket and if everyone
has a present,
you can give him yours. If not, you can keep
it.
Boy 1: OK. But
what if I don’t know anyone?
Girl 1: If you
don’t know anyone, you can talk to Tom. He’ll introduce you to
people.
Boy 1: I guess
I can do that.
Girl 1: Look!
You’re sure to have fun. But if you’re still nervous, you can
leave. |
Now listen again and write down all the expressions onto your
phrase book.
go to that party, a little nervous, wear a
shirt and tie, have a present, bring a present, take a small present, keep…in
your pocket, know anyone, talk to…, introduce… to …, have
fun |
2b Listening and checking
Listen to the tape again and check on page 27 the four things
Larry’s sister says to him.
2c Doing
pairwork
Xu Linfeng, you are Larry. Men Yating, you are Larry’s sister.
Xu is going to talk about his worries and Men is going to give him
advice.
X: I don’t know what to wear. |
M: If I were you, I’d
wear a shirt and tie. |
X: I don’t have a present. What if everyone else brings a
present? |
M: If I were you, I’d take a small
present—a pen or something. |
X: What if I don’t know anyone? |
M: If you don’t know anyone, you can talk
to Tom. He’ll introduce you to people. |

3a Reading and
matching
Go to
page 28. Read the problems in the boxes and match them with the correct
advice.
And now write down all the expressions into your phrase
book.
be really shy, enjoy parties, get nervous before big parties,
get pimples, look terrible, the night before…, take a big exam, do well, help
with…, eat lots of fruits, drink lots of water, take a long walk, go to bed,
look friendly, feel shy |
3b Thinking and role
playing
Next you are going to think of different advice for the
problems in activity 3a. Role play conversations with your partner.
A: I am really shy. I don’t enjoy parties.
B: If I were you, I’d go and shout in the street. I’d set up
parties and invite all my classmates to come and sing and dance.
A: I get nervous before big parties and I get pimples.
B: Pimples look good to me. They are not terrible at all. If I
were you, the night before the big exam I’d lie in bed counting the cows, the
sheep, the cattle and the horses. Then I’d have a nice sleep. If you count as
many cows as possible you’d do well in the exam.
A: I can’t lose my
weight.
B: If I were you, I’d eat lots of fruits, drink lots of water and
take a long walk before going to bed every evening.
4. Doing group
work
You are put into pairs and find out each other’s problems at
school and at home. Then give each other advice.
I really want to go to the mall with my
parents, but I don’t have the time. |
Finish your homework at school and stop going to Sunday
classes. You’ll find time that way. |
I failed the driver’s exam and cannot get
my driver’s license. |
Go practicing driving more often and go over the textbook three
more times. You won’t fail next time. |
My father does not want me to get my ears
pierced. |
If I were you, I’d go to my mother for support. Or you can ask
your mother to have her ears pierced first. |
I have to go to school on foot. I want to take the
bus. |
Going to school on foot is good for your health. Go on going to
school, to any places nearby on foot. It save money, too. |
I like to choose my own clothes, but my
mother doesn’t allow me to do that. |
Wear your school uniforms while you are still a student. Wait
till you are a big man and you’d have the right to choose your own
clothes. |
