Page 2: The Zero Conditional

Examples:

• The zero conditional is used to talk about things which are always true — such as scientific facts and general truths

• If you heat water to 100 degrees, it boils

Page 3: The Zero Conditional

• If scientists produce laser light, they generate a light a million times brighter than sunshine

• If you look at the sky, you can see Venus

Page 4: The Zero Conditional

How can we form Sentences with the zero conditional?

• If you heat water to 100 degrees, it boils

• If you look at the sky, you can see Venus

• If scientists produce laser light, they generate a light a million times brighter than sunshine

Page 5: The Zero Conditional

Two ways to write with conditional zero

• If you heat water to 100 degrees, it boils.

• Water boils if you heat it to 100 degrees.

• If you look at the sky, you can see Venus.

• You can see Venus if you look at the sky.

• If scientists produce laser light, they generate a light a million times brighter than sunshine.

• Scientist generates a light a million times brigther than sunshine if they produce a laser light

Read this Scientific Facts and then change them to zero

conditional• EXAMPLE:• The temperature on the surface of

Mercury exceeds 430 degrees C during the day, and, at night, plummets to minus 180 degrees centigrade. This is the scientific fact.

• If you calculate the temperature of Mercury, you realize Mercury exceeds 430 degrees C during the day

Page 7: The Zero Conditional

• If you calculate the temperature of Mercury, you realize Mercury exceeds 430 degrees C during the day

• Using the zero conditional to write the same in other way.

• You realize Mercury exceeds 430 degrees C during the day if you calculate the temparature

Read and Form sentences with zero conditional in two

ways.• The oceans contain enough salt to

cover all the continents to a depth of nearly 500 feet

• The highest speed ever achieved on a bicycle is 166.94 mph, by Fred Rompelberg

• A typical hurricane produces the energy equivalent of 8,000 one megaton bombs

• 60-65 million years ago dolphins and humans shared a common ancestor

• The average person accidentally eats 430 bugs each year of their life

• Polar Bears can run at 25 miles an hour and jump over 6 feet in the air
