What would you be?

Here’s a video about the second conditional by the magazine Hot English.  Watch the video of a ‘job interview’ in which the interviewer asks ‘What would you…’ questions.  How many of the answers can you understand?  Answers in class next week.  Why don’t you leave a comment to answer some or all of the questions yourself?

  2. Hello to everybody! I couldn’t understand all the answers but I think ¿Brenda? says:
    If she won the lottery, she’d ¿go to Ireland?
    If she was a part of a bicycle, she’d be a bell because ??
    If she was a dressing for salad, she’d be honey mustard because it is sweet and spicy
    If she was a Star Wars character, she’d be Yoda because he’s weird
    And finally, she said yes for the job, but she couldn’t get it.

  3. If I won the lotery I’d travell around the world with my children and stop to job
    If I was a salad, I’d would like to be a tomato because it’s red and I love the red colour.
    If I was a bicicle part, I’d like a handlebar for controling.

  4. Hi!

    First, If I were the interviewee for this imaginary job I’d wear a superhero suit and tie.
    If I won the lottery I‘d create a brand and a new space for my drawings and I´d share a portion of the money.
    If I were a salad I wouldn’t have dressing.
    If I were a part of cycling, I’d be the wheels because I ‘d be turning to discover new things and places everyday.
    If I were a Star Wars character I’d be a green laser sword( I don’t like Star Wars).

    And finally, if I were chosen for this work I´d celebrate a party about Star Wars on bicycle and vegetables.

    =)

      1. Thanks Michael

        Stars Wars, vegetables and bicycles would be the theme for the party if I were chosen for the job (It´s in honor of the questions).
        You’re invited to the party and you choose your fancy dress.
        =)
