TYPE 1 : TRUE IN THE PRESENT OR FUTURE
Type 1 is used to describe what will happen if we think a future event probable. The most commonly used form is:
If+Simple Present ,WILL Future
Truth =); It may rain . If so , we will eat inside.
Conditional Sentence =); If it rains we will eat inside.
Truth =); The cat might die . In that case , Arda will be upset.
Conditional Sentence =); If the cat dies , Arda will be upset.
Truth =); It is possible that Steve will enter the competition. And if he does, I am sure he will win.
Conditional Sentence =); If Steve enters the competition, he will win.
Truth =); Why don`t you ask for a pay rise ? You`ll probably get one.
Conditional Sentence =); If you ask for a pay rise , you will probably get one.
Truth =); The office may be closed . In that case , we won`t be able to get in.
Conditional Sentence =); If the office is closed we won`t be able to get in.
Truth =); The picture may be valuable . If so , we can sell it.
Conditional Sentence =); If the pic is valuable , we can sell it.
Truth =); It is probable that Muhammed won`t come . In that case , the party will be cancelled.
Conditional Sentence =); If Muhammed doesn`t come , the part will be cancelled.

Truth =); Perhaps she will come tomorrow. Then we will work together.
Conditional Sentence =); If she comes tomorrow, we will work together. (NOT: If she will come ... )
Truth =); Perhaps it won`t rain at the weekend . Then we will go on a picnic.
