Teoría de Repaso.

THE FIRST CONDITIONAL
Las oraciones condicionales tienen dos partes:
1. la oración subordinada con if que expresa una condición
2. la oración principal que expresa el resultado (si la condición se cumple o no)
Hay tres clases de condicionales, cada una de las cuales contiene dos tiempos verbales diferentes.
La primera condicional habla de las posibles acciones o acontecimientos que pueden ocurrir o no. La oración condicional comienza con if y va generalmente en presente simple, mientras que la oración principal va generalmente en futuro con “will” y describe lo que ocurrirá si la condición se cumple, o no llega a cumplirse.

IF + SUJ + VERB + REST OF SENTENCE /// SUJ + WILL+ VERB+ REST OF SENTENCE
If Alice works hard, she will pass the test.
If you play with matches, you will burn your fingers.

Tanto la oración principal como la subordinada pueden ir en primer lugar, pero si la oración subordinada va en primer lugar, hemos de poner una coma entre ambas.

If she likes the dress, she will buy it.

La primera condicional puede usarse también para hacer sugerencias y dar instrucciones o mandatos. En este uso se puede sustituir “will” por un imperativo.

If you need my help, call me!

La primera condicional expresa asimismo relaciones objetivas o habituales que son verdaderas e
inmutables. En estas condicionales el verbo suele ir en presente simple en ambas partes de la oración.

If you freeze water, it turns to ice.
