Zero conditional (零條件句)
上一期在【关于落在13日的迷信星期五】讨论了The First Conditional/第一条件句,今天我们继续来学习另一个条件句:
The Zero Conditional
The Zero Conditional is used when we talk about situations that are always true and as a consequence are about the past, present or future.
零条件句主要谈论一些永远是真的事实。
- If anything bad happens to me, I just blame it on coincidence
- When the sun goes down, it gets dark.*
- It lights up if you push that button.
记得,The present simple is used in both clauses. 这种情况,两个从句都用一般现在时。
* It is commonly used to talk about scientific facts. As you can see in the example above, we use the present simple in both clauses.
它通常用于谈论科学事实。 正如以上的例子:
太阳下山天空也就变黑了。
如果你按下该按钮,它会亮起。
