1. What would happen if nobody voted in the presidential election next year?
- If nobody voted in the presidential election next year, there would be no elected candidate and it would be difficult to determine the leader of the country. This could lead to political instability and a lack of representation for the people.

2. If Robert doesn't like you, he won't call you every day.
- If Robert doesn't have a positive opinion of you, he would not feel the need or desire to call you every day. People usually choose to spend time with and communicate with those they like or have a good relationship with.

3. Where would you go if you and your friends could go anywhere in the world?
- If you and your friends had the opportunity to choose any destination in the world, you would have the freedom to explore and experience different cultures, landscapes, and attractions. It would be a chance to broaden your horizons and create unforgettable memories.

4. My mom wouldn't be so angry with me if I made my bed every morning.
- If I made my bed every morning, it would show responsibility and discipline. This small action could contribute to a cleaner and more organized living space, which would make my mom less likely to get angry or upset with me.

5. You wouldn't be late for school every day if you got up twenty minutes earlier in the morning.
- If you adjusted your morning routine and woke up twenty minutes earlier, you would have more time to prepare and get ready for school. This would allow you to avoid rushing and being late, ensuring that you arrive on time and start the day off in a more relaxed manner.

6. What would you do if you saw somebody shoplifting in a supermarket?
- If you witnessed someone stealing in a supermarket, it is important to act responsibly. One option could be to inform a store employee or manager, as they have the authority and resources to handle such situations. It is important not to confront the individual directly, as it may put your safety or the safety of others at risk.

7. If they didn't have to work, they would travel all over the world.
- If the individuals in question didn't have the obligation of work or other responsibilities, they would have the freedom to travel and explore different countries and cultures. Traveling provides an opportunity to learn, grow, and broaden one's perspective on the world.
