Conditional Sentence Trivia Quiz

The correct answer is "I'll go with you" because the phrase "I'll" is a contraction of "I will," indicating a future action. The speaker is offering to go with the other person in the future, suggesting a willingness and intention to accompany them. The other options, "I'd go with you" and "I'd have gone with you," imply conditional or past actions, which do not fit the context of the given sentence.

This sentence suggests that the speaker is talking about a past event where someone didn't drive carefully and as a result, they crashed into another car. The phrase "if they had driven carefully" indicates a hypothetical situation that didn't actually happen.

Therefore, the correct answer is Type 3 (Condition not possible to fulfill too late).

This sentence suggests that Lisa was late for work because she got up late. The use of "would not have been" indicates a hypothetical situation in the past, implying that if Lisa had not gotten up late, she would not have been late for work.

Therefore, the correct answer is Type 3, as the condition was not possible to fulfill due to Lisa getting up late.

The correct answer is "If you had taken your medicine." This is because the sentence is discussing a hypothetical situation in the past, indicating that the person did not take their medicine.
