    Something to Remember
    This kind of contitional is called Factual or Real conditional. We use it When we want to talk about:

    FACTS

    If you always tell a lie, nobody believes you.

    General truths

    If there is not oxygen, living things die.

    Habit

    If I eat chiken grill, I dont eat french fries

    Common events

    If it rains too much, there is an avalanche here.

    Think it!
    PROBABILITY 100% CONDTIONAL EXAMPLE TIME Any time

    Zero conditional If you freeze water, it turns into ice.

    Note! Most zero conditional sentences mean the same thing if "when" is used instead of "if"

    Excercises:
    ice / float / you / drop / it / in water ____________________________. you / not / eat / you / die _____________________________. if / no / rain / the grass / not / grow ______________________________. iron / rust / it / get / wet _________________________.

    TAG QUESTIONS
    A tag question is a short question added to the end of a positive or negative statement.
    He is, isn't he?

    He does,

    doesn't he?

    He will, He can,

    won't he? can't he?

    How are they formed?


    1. If the auxiliary verb in the sentence is positive, the tag is negative. You are Spanish, aren't you?

    2. If the auxiliary verb in the sentence is negative, the tag is positive. You're not Spanish, are you?

    3. If there is no auxiliary verb in the sentence, we use do. You live in Japan, don't you?

    Functions
    We use tag questions to confirm information.

    This meal is horrible, isn't it?

    We use tag questions to check information.

    You haven't got a piece of cake, have you?

    Excercises:
    1) She is collecting stickers,________ ? 2) We often watch TV in the afternoon,_________ ? 3) You have cleaned your bike,______________ ? 4) John and Max don't like Maths,____________ ? 5) Peter played handball yesterday,___________? 6) They are going home from school,__________? 7) Mary didn't do her homework last Monday,____ ? 8) He could have bought a new car,__________ ? 9) Kevin will come tonight, _____________? 10) I'm clever,________________ ?
