记录下我的思考，不是为了争个对错高低哈。
对比下 LAAD2 和 LDOCE5 。
LAAD2（2007） » I would get there early, if you can. 要是你可以早到，我也会早到的。（2000 年第一版 LAAD 并没有这个例句，从时间判断，这个句子是改编自 LDOCE 的）
LDOCE4/5（2003、2009） » I’d try to get there early if you can. 要是你可以早到，我也会尽量早到。
LDOCE 多了 try to ，直觉上讲，假如 you 可以早到，接下来要说的就是 I 也可以、必须、应该、肯定、坚决地要早到，你早到了我再晚到有点不太好吧，而不单单是 try to （尽量）早到。你都早到了，我还只是尽量早到，那这个你早到，有什么意义？
LDOCE 里的 would 以及 try to ，其实让我倾向于 I 有不去的可能性，为什么呢？假如我要去的话，我倾向于这样说：
- I will/can/would/could get there early if you can/could. 也就是如 LAAD2 那样，去掉 try to 。
就算用 try to ，因为已经假设我肯定是要去的，我倾向于用 I will try to 而不是 I would try to 。
LDOCE » I’d try to get there early if you can. 要是你可以早到，我也会尽量早到。
完整的表达可能就是：If I were you, and if I（= you）can get there early, I（= you） would (try to) get there early. （我是你的话，我能早到就尽量早到。）
当然，这句子上下文到底如何，是不是编辑自己造的，就不得而知了。

衍生讨论，I will 和 I would 的区别。
- What is the difference between I will try it. and I would try it. ? https://hinative.com/en-US/questions/379583
I would get there early, if you can.
I will get there early, if you can.
同为非过去时，I would 更加委婉。
