hi I'm Andrew and welcome to this the
latest in my series of videos about the

現在進行形

IELTS exam we are looking specifically
at the IELTS spoken exam and this

particular lesson is about a particular
type of question that occurs in part 3

of the exam and I'm going to show you
how you can give a sophisticated answer

that will help your score for
grammatical range it will create a good

impression with the examiner because you
will be able to show that you understand

how to use a particular construction in
English that we call the second

conditional in order to answer a
particular type of question if you find

this video useful please subscribe to my
channel and if you would like a lesson

with me my contact details are available
below this video so the type of question

that we're going to look at today is
what I call prediction questions

these are very common questions in part
three of the exam an example how do you

think mobile phones will change in the
future so you could answer this question

in one of two different ways you could
just news the simple future tense for

example I think mobile phone companies
will make phones with bigger screens in

future simple future tense but that's
not really very sophisticated and a more

sophisticated answer involves using the
second conditional construction so to

get a good score in your IELTS speaking
exam you need to show a good grammatical

range you need to prove to the examiner
that you know how to news a variety of

grammatical constructions in English the
future tense

in English is not considered to be a
complex construction it would be

grammatically correct to news it but the
second conditional would create a better

impression because it's more complex and
that's the answer to the question why

should you news the second conditional
instead of only using the simple future

tense to answer these prediction
questions now how can you use the second

conditional in English the news that is
relevant for these questions the

prediction questions in the IELTS exam
is to news the second conditional to

talk about something in the future which
is very unlikely to happen for example

if I won the lottery I would buy a boat
wouldn't we all like to buy a light or

in answer to the question how do you
think mobile phones will change in the

future you could say I don't know what
mobile phone companies will do next

but if I designed mobile phones then I'd
make the keyboards bigger so what is the

form of the second conditional in
English you should news if plus the

simple past tense of the main verb in
one part of a sentence and would plus

the infinitive of a verb in the other
part of the sentence so if I played

football for England I'd score a lot of
goals played is the simple past tense of

the main verb
I'd score involves using wood and the

infinitive of a verb in the other part
of the sentence so I'm now going to give

you three examples of how to use the
second conditional to answer prediction

type questions how do you think teaching
will change in the future

ah well if I
in a school I'd expect to news a lot

more technology in the future that's for
sure

as I think that's clearly the direction
of trouble so I'd be making sure that I

learnt everything there is to know about
how computers can be used to teach young

people because I definitely think that
the future of teaching will be all about

technology another example how do you
think people's diets in your country

will change in the future
hmm that's not something that I fought

about before but I think that if I
worked for a food production company

then I definitely be looking to tap into
the booming market for vegetarian and

vegan food because there's no doubt that
those types of food have been getting

more and more popular in England and I'd
expect that trend to continue and for

more and more people to become
vegetarian or vegan one final example

bit of a silly one how do you think
tourism will develop in future hmm it's

hard to say really
but if I ran a trouble agency then I'd

think about space I know that seems a
bit far-fetched but then people on earth

have already been almost everywhere they
could go to or at least which people

have and I think there's a real thirst
for new experiences and spaces as they

said on Star Trek the final frontier
so let's look very quickly at how we

news the second conditional in all three
of these answers in this one if I ran a

travel agency then I'd think about space
second conditional in this one if I

worked for a food production company
then I definitely be looking to tap into

the booming market for vegetarian and
vegan food etc second conditional in

this one about teaching if
I taught in a school I'd expect to use a

lot more technology in the future
second condition okay so if you would
