Answer 1

1. If we had left earlier, we would have arrived on time. — Correct. (Third conditional: if + past perfect → would have + past participle.)

2. If Evan had called, we would make plans for later. — Incorrect. (Mixes past perfect with simple would + base verb; should be "we would have made plans" for a past counterfactual.)

3. If the rain had stopped, you could have gone to the park. — Correct. (Third conditional: if + past perfect → could have + past participle.)

4. If the flowers are blooming, they would have smelled sweet. — Incorrect. (Mixes present with past perfect result; correct forms would be "If the flowers are blooming, they smell/would smell sweet" or "If the flowers had been blooming, they would have smelled sweet.")
