The document discusses the four types of conditional sentences in English: zero, first, second, and third conditional. It provides examples for each type of conditional sentence. The zero conditional uses the present simple tense in both the if-clause and main clause to express facts. The first conditional uses the present simple in the if-clause and future simple in the main clause. The second conditional uses the past simple in the if-clause and "would" plus the base form of the verb in the main clause. The third conditional uses the past perfect in the if-clause and "would have" plus the past participle in the main clause.
