1st Conditional Tense - First Conditional Exercise in English

In sentence B the speaker merely states an intention (what is likely to happen).

We use the 1st Conditional in offers, suggestions, warnings and threats.

Examples: If we hurry (present simple), we will catch the bus.

If we miss it, there will be another one
