Practice
7. If electricity hadn’t been discovered in the seventeenth century, other related
discoveries would not have been made.
1. If chips were implanted in our bodies at birth, it would be more difficult to steal your
identities.
2. If genetic engineering were prohibited, our food would be much safer.
3. If human cloning were permitted, we might have doubles walking around.
4. If the airplane hadn’t been invented in the early 1900s, we would not have had the
opportunity to see so much of the world.
5. If dinosaurs hadn’t been made extinct, the world would not have evolved to where
we are today
6. If written language had not been developed thousands of years ago, people would
have had to rely on oral communication.
These conversation strategies are implicit in the model:
● Use For one thing, to name the fi rst thing on a list.
● Use Well, if you ask me, to voice your opinion.
● Use I mean to indicate you will be explaining yourself.
● Use I see your point to signal understanding someone’s
point of view.
