Traffic police are sometimes very polite. During a holiday in Sweden, I found this note on my car: 'sir, we welcome you to our city. This is a "No Parking" area. You will enjoy your stay here if you pay attention to our street signs. This note is only a reminder.' If you receive a request like this, you cannot fail to obey it!

三、课文和语法

1、If you park your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it.

1) if 引导的条件状语从句

条件状语从句有真实的和非真实的区分，本节课主要讲真实的条件（可能发生或能够发生）

2) 这里的you是泛指

2)位置：if引导的条件状语从句可放在主句前，也可在主句后

3)时态：

>> 如果将来的事情可能发生，if从句用一般现在时或现在进行时（主将从现：主句将来时，从句一般现在时或现在进行时）；从句用现在进行时则强调动作正在进行.

If it is fine tomorrow, I will go swimming.

If he is dioing his homework now, I will call him later.

You’ll miss the train if you don’t hurry.

>> 如果对主句动作要发生的程度不那么确信，或表达建议、命令等其他含义，就可用情态动词来替代will (主情从现：主句用情态动词，从句一般现在或现在进行时)

>> 如果想加强命令、建议等，主句可用祈使句（主祈从现：主句祈使句，从句一般现在时或现在进行时）

4、However, this does not always happen.

however adv. 可是，然而，不过
