5. Key structures

条件句(Conditional sentences)
if引导的条件从句指能够发生、可能发生或可能发生过的事件。如果认为将来的事件很可能会发生，那么if从句中要用一般现在时(有时也用其他形式的现在时)，主句中用will(或shall)加动词形式或其他形式的将来时。
If he is sleeping,don’t wake him up.
条件句的主句中的will表示肯定如此或几乎可以肯定会如此。如果觉得其“肯定”程度达不到使用will的程度，或者如果想表达建议等其他意思，就可以用别的情态助动词来代替will；条件句中的主句还可以用祈使语气等表示请求、建议等。
You can post these letters if you want to.
Exercises C
5 If he ______ (enjoy) concerts, why doesn’t he come with us?.enjoys, why doesn’t跟第三人称连用, 是一种建议; why not连在一起表示建议
