The correct answer is B. Using an auxiliary verb paired with a main verb to describe what will happen as a result of a certain situation.

In English, the conditional mood typically uses the auxiliary verb "would" (and sometimes "could" or "might") combined with the base form of the main verb. For example, "I would go to the park if it were sunny."
