If I were rich, _______ a lot.
I’ll travel
Incorrect AnswerI can travel
Incorrect AnswerI would travel
Correct AnswerI travelled
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
correct option is 'I would travel'. The sentence is a Conditional sentence Type 2. When the verb in the if-clause is in the past tense, the verb in the main clause is in the conditional tense. The modals will, can are not used in this type of conditional sentence. Similarly, the simple past tense is not used in the main clause. The past tense in the if-clause is not a true past but a subjunctive, which indicates unreality or improbability.
