1st versus 2nd conditional

Watch the two videos. The first one is about a musician. The second one is a scene of Fiddler on the roof, where a poor man talks about his life and expectations.

  1. Which video is related to a hypothetical, improbable situation?
  2. Which one is related to a probable consequence?
  3. Can you write down a model sentence from each video and analyse their structure, as follows:

If + Subject + ...

4. Send a comment with your 1-3 answers.

In case you need some practice on: the 1st conditional: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ; the 2nd conditional: 1 2 3 4 5
