Second Conditional2

The document summarizes the use of the second conditional to express imaginary or improbable situations. It states that a conditional clause using "if" and the past simple is followed by a main clause using "would" and the infinitive without "to." It provides examples like "If she played better, she would win" and "If I were you, I would study harder." It then provides activities for students to practice forming and using second conditional clauses.
