1. Present When Jack met Rose, he introduced himself to Rose. He said, "I’m a poor artist who wants to go to America. I won my ticket on Titanic here at a lucky hand at pocker.

If I worked hard, I might have money.

If I had a lot of money, I could buy a ticket.

If I bought a ticket, I would be on board.

If I were on board, I should sail for America. " Through the four sentences, ask students to find out the structure we use in unreal conditionals to state a present condition or situation.
