Conditional sentences transformations

Look at this face...


This is the face of my students when they don't understand something (usually while I'm still explaining it). 

Sometimes, they translate this face into words. And it's something like that: "I don't entender very mucho".

Well, one of this phenomenal moments took place this morning when we were going through conditional transformations. Do you know what I'm talking about? Those exercises in which you are given one sentence and you are asked to create a second sentence with the same meaning as the former but using different words. Brilliant. 

Well, I've been gathering some on line practice. Help yourselves!

I'm reposting what I wrote last year, so you don't have to look up that specific entry in my post list.
