Сослагательное наклонение / Subjunctive mood

В английском языке существует три типа сложноподчиненных предложений с придаточными условий. Вы уже знакомы с придаточными условными предложениями I типа. В них содержится указание на реальное, выполнимое условие.

She'll go to the party if Mike invites her. — Она пойдет на вечеринку, если Майк пригласит ее.

Сослагательное наклонение (The Subjunctive mood) используется в условных предложениях II типа (Conditionals type 2). В этих предложениях содержится указание на нереальное условие, по причине которого осуществление действия главного предложения проблематично или невозможно. В таких предложениях действия могли бы произойти внастоящем или будущем, но это маловероятно. В главном предложении употребляется Future-in-the Past, в придаточном Past Simple.

She would go to the party if Mike invited her. — Она пошла бы на вечеринку, если бы Майк пригласил ее. (Это все еще возможно, поскольку вечеринка еще не состоялась, но это маловероятно.) 

Обратите внимание! Сокращенная форма would = 'd
I'd help you today if I had time.

Глагол to be в условных предложениях II типа имеет форму were.

If I were older, I would work as a ranger. — Если бы я был старше, я бы работал лесником.
If I were you I'd spend this money on books. — На твоем месте я потратил бы эти деньги на книги.

6  Look through the text and find out which of your questions about summer jobs it answers.

7   Emily showed Misha an article with advice on summer jobs for American teenagers. Listen to the text and read it for detail.

"It would be nice to have a job this summer. "
"If I had more time, I'd definitely look for a job. "
"If only they could give me something interesting to do,
I'd be happy to try a job out." "If I were older..."
 
Does this ring a bell? If you want to find a summer job. don't just sit around and dream. If you want to get results, get up and get moving. You'll  be surprised how many options there are. But you won't know about them if you don't make the effort.
Your first step should be to look for adverts in the local papers. Then try to talk to your neighbours, relatives or anybody else who will listen to you.
So what are the options you can try?



•    Working at a cafe or a restaurant. This will suit someone who wants to earn as much money as possible. Hot summer days are usually a very busy time for cafes and bistros, so they'll probably want all the help they can get. But you have to bear in mind that it's not an easy job. You have to be physically fit and work well under stress if you a job like this is for you. Your attitude is also a factor. If you think to yourself "I hate this job" as you wash the dishes or clear the tables, you won't get much from it. But if you think positive, you could learn a lot about the restaurant business and later this knowledge could be useful when you start a business of your own.
•    Babysitting. This is a traditional job for teenagers to do. If you are responsible and love kids, then this is the job for you. There will always be a family with busy working parents who'll be more than happy
to give you a job to help out over the summer. Your help will be even more welcome if you can do something useful with the children: teach them music or languages or do sports with them.
•    Yard work or cutting the grass. There will always be people who'll be glad to pay you for looking after their yard. A lot of things in the garden need attention in summer, and not everybody who has a garden is born with green fingers. Fresh air and lots of physical activity is an extra advantage.
•    Dog walking. "I'd have a dog, if I weren't so busy." You sometimes hear people say that, but not everybody is so responsible. A lot of people who have pets don't have enough time to walk them properly and often feel guilty about it. You can get quite a lot of clients if you just stick an advert up on the bus stop near your house. Summer is the time when people want to go on holiday. If your parents don't mind, you can also offer tp look after a dog or a cat for a couple of weeks until the owners come back from holiday.

•    Teaching people how to use computers or the Internet. It's probably hard for you to imagine what it is like to live without a computer. You'd feel completely cut off if you switched off your computer even for a day. Well, you'll probably be surprised to know that there are a lot of people who don't have a clue about how to use one. They'd like to be able to, but they're scared. You may be able to help those people if you're very good at using a computer, and patience is your strong point.
•    Working at an amusement park. Most of these places are only open in the summer, but they hire hundreds of people. Going on free rides, having a lot of fun and getting to know lots of new people are all guaranteed.
•    Working at a summer camp, national park or a holiday resort. If you have a friendly and outgoing personality and if you like to travel, this is the job for you. The only problem is that jobs like this are really popular, so you'll need to apply early and hope that you'll be selected.
