Do the same with the first parts of these similar sentences:

_______________________________________________, I would’ve been much happier

_____________________________________________, I would be much wealthier today

_____________________________________, I would’ve got much better marks at school

____________________________________________________, I would’ve hit him or her

Do the same, but writing a whole sentence, reading out just half, and seeing if your partner can guess the other half (giving hints if they get stuck).
