一、一般将来时的基本概念
一般将来时表示将来某一时刻的动作或状态,或将来某一段时间内经常的动作或状态。一般将来时由助动词shall(第一人称),will(第二、三人称)+动词原形构成。美国英语则不管什么人称,一律用will。
二、一般将来时的形式
●will 常简略为 'll,并与主语连写在一起,如:I'll,he'll,it'll,we'll,you'll,they'll。
●一般疑问句如用will you…?其简略答语须是Yes,I will或 No,I will not;如用 Shall you…?(较少见)其简略答语须是 Yes,I shall.或 No, I shall not.。
三、一般将来时的用法
1)表示将来的动作或状态
一般将来时常与一些表示将来的时间状语连用,如:
tomorrow(明天), next week(下周), from now on(从现在开始);in the future(将来)等。
2)表示将来经常发生的动作。
4.一般将来时的其他用法
四、一般将来时表示将来某一时刻的动作或状态,其表达形式除了“shall(第一人称),will(第二、三人称)+动词原形构成”外,还有以下几种形式。
1)“to be going to+动词原形”表示即将发生的或最近打算进行的事。例如:
①It is going to rain. 要下雨了。
②We are going to have a meeting today. 今天我们开会。
2)go, come,start,move,sail,leave,arrive,stay,live,fly,等可用进行时态表示按计划即将发生的动作,例如:
I'm leaving for Beijing.
我要去北京。
3)“be to+动词原形”表示按计划要发生的事或征求对方意见。例如:
①Are we to go on with this work?我们继续干吗?
五、am/is/are/going to + do和will/shall + do
1) shall用于第三人称单数,常被will 所代替,二者都可以缩写成 'll。
will 在陈述句中用于各人称,在征求意见时常用于第二人称。
Which paragraph shall I read first.
Will you be at home at seven this evening?
2) be going to +动词原形\地点,表示将来。
3) be +不定式表将来,按计划或正式安排将发生的事。
