Answer 1

Conditional Sentence Type 3 is used to talk about unreal situations in the past. These sentences typically follow the structure: "If + past perfect, would have + past participle." Now, let's expand the given notes into sentences using this structure:

1) If he had read the instructions, he would not have broken the vacuum cleaner. - This sentence suggests that he didn't read the instructions, which led to the vacuum cleaner being broken.

2) If you had asked politely, I would have lent you money. - In this case, the person did not ask politely, so the speaker did not lend them money.

3) If they had had more money, they might have been able to afford the most expensive restaurant. - The lack of sufficient funds in the past prevented them from affording the most expensive restaurant.
