Amelia Earhart who was born at Atchison in 1897 was one of the first and is still probably the
most famous woman aviator in the world. She dropped out from Columbia University and
worked in California to earn money for flying lessons.
In 1928, she became the first female passenger of transatlantic flight. She flew from new
Newfoundland to Burry port, Wales. In 1932, at the age of thirty four, she was the first woman to
fly across the Atlantic Ocean alone, from Harbor Grace, newfoundland, to Ireland. This success
was soon followed by a series of flights across the United States alone.
In 1935, she was the first woman who made a solo flight from Hawaii to California in both
directions. In 1937, she tried to fly around the world with Fred Noonan as her navigator. After
completing more than two-thirds of the trip, her twin engine Lockheed Electra vanished near
Howland Island in the Pacific Ocean, and no trace of Earheart or her plane was ever found.

They are called conditional sentences. A conditional sentence consists of two clauses; the if-clause, and
the main clause. The if-clause can come first or second. When it comes first, we usually put a comma
between the two clauses.
The if-clause is in the present tense, the main clause uses will and the infinitive, or simple
present.
a. We use conditional sentence type 1 to talk about possible situations in the present or
future.
o If you leave earlier, you will not be late.

the infinitive, or would be and the present participle (Verb-ing).

truth, we live in a big city)
