New Cutting Edge Intermediate Modules 11 and 12
Use as many cards below as you can to make one third conditional sentence. You get one point for each card if your partners accept your sentence as possible. If your sentence makes no sense (e.g. “I would have abandoned my dice if I had been fascinated”) they should reject it, and play passes to the next person. You are allowed to change the grammar of the words below, e.g. “compensate” instead of “compensation”.
