ALGORITHMS TO PRACTISE CONDITIONAL SENTENCES
An algorithm
is an unambiguous method of solving a specific problem.(Wikipedia)
In
mathematics and computer science, an algorithm /ˈælɡərɪðəm/ is a finite sequence of well-defined,
computer-implementable instructions, typically to solve a class of problems or
to perform a computation. Algorithms are always unambiguous and are used
as specifications for performing calculations, data processing, automated
reasoning, and other tasks.(Wiki Again)
(Inspiration for this activity came from Henry Alford´s
The New Yorker December 10 2018)
Write two
examples of conditional sentences similar to the ones below:
If you like writing long e-mails you might also like
going to a gym where you smash furniture with a hammer.
If you enjoy coffee you may like gossip.
If you read Nietzsche, you are great fun.
If you are into heavy metal, you might imagine the
roar of tectonic plates smashing against one another.
If you prefer meeting weird guys you might like
wearing big, dark sunglasses.
If you dislike staying at home you might like falling
asleep on the bus/underground.
If you achieve tiny moral victories, you might easily
feel offended.
If you enjoy unraveling complex expressions you might
not wash your hands after using the loo.
If you like sometimes but not always doing the
opposite of what´s expected of you, you might also try being offline for two
months.
If you refuse to answer e-mails you might like to buy
a house on the edge of a cliff.
If you get a penalty/ticket/fine for having an
ancestor who reached the grand old age of 100, you might also like pretending
that your phone is vibrating in order to avoid talking to someone.
If you are rushed to Hospital you might buy anything
once you check out.
If you awaken from coma you are more likely to be
fired.
If you are on voluntary lockdown, you might as well
find more about algorithms.
