You will read the scene it happens in, take apart the pattern behind them (if + present, will/going to + base verb), hear them in a conversation, rehearse them, and finish by saying one thing out loud to be graded.
Using conditionals to plan a flexible NYC weekend β "if" for real possibilities, "when" for certainties. Setting: planning an ambitious Saturday food crawl from the Shake Shack original in Madison Square Park to Brooklyn.
The original Shake Shack opened in 2004 as a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park. Danny Meyer turned it into a permanent kiosk, and now it's a global chain β but the original location, with its view of the Flatiron Building, still feels special.
Saturday morning. James texts: "What's the plan today?"
Maria: "If the weather is nice, I'm going to start at the original Shake Shack in Madison Square Park. If it's raining, Plan B is Chelsea Market."
James: "What about after?"
Maria: "It depends on how we feel. If we have time, we'll take the subway to Brooklyn and check out Smorgasburg. If not, we can swing by Eataly instead."
James: "Let's play it by ear. As long as I get a ShackBurger, I'm happy."
Maria: "Either way, it's going to be a great day. Worst case, we just eat our way through the park!"
