一般将来时
一、基本概念
表示将来某个时间要发生的动作或存在的状态，常与一些表示将来的时间状语连用。例如：
I am going to / will watch a football match on TV this evening．
今天晚上我将在电视上看一场足球比赛。
二、基本结构
一般将来时的结构一般由“助动词will+动词原形”或“be going to+动词原形”构成。will是助动词，不能
独立使用，前面的主语不管是什么人称，其后总用will。在名词或代词后常简缩为’ll，并与主语连写在一
起。will的否定形式是will not，缩略形式是won’t。
三、时间状语
一般将来时常用的时间状语：tomorrow, tonight, the day after tomorrow, next week (month, year …), this
afternoon, evening …, soon, in + 时间段等。例如：
Tom will come back in two days．汤姆两天后回来。
I’ll be more careful from now on．从现在起我会更加小心的。
四、基本句型
(1)肯定句
1）主语+will+动词原形+其他
He will come here at once．他马上来这儿。
2）主语+be going to+动词原形+其他
We are going to climb the hill this afternoon．我们打算今天下午去爬山。
(2)否定句
1）主语+ will + not + 动词原形+其他
He will not(won’t)go to the party．他不去参加聚会。
2）主语+be + not + going to+动词原形+其他
He isn’t going to do morning exercises tomorrow．明天他不去做早操。
(3)一般疑问句

Will he help you with your English 他会帮助你学习英语吗
2）Be动词(Am，Is，Are)+主语+going to+动词原形+其他
Are you going to play computer games tomorrow afternoon
你打算明天下午玩电脑游戏吗
(4)特殊疑问句：疑问词+一般疑问句
—What will the students have for lunch today 学生们今天午饭吃什么
—They will have bread．他们将吃面包。
五、注意的问题：
（1）主语是第一人称I; we 时，常用助动词 shall + 动词原形。例如：
We shall be very happy if you accept it. 如果你接受了它，我们将会很高兴。
I shall write you a letter next month. 下个月我会给你写信。
（2）在问对方是否愿意, 或表示客气的邀请时，常用 will。例如：
Will you go to the zoo with me 你愿意和我去动物园吗？
Will you please open the door 请打开门好吗？
（3）在表示建议或征求对方意见时，用 shall。例如：
Shall we go at ten 我们在10:00走好吗？
六、There be句型与含有will和be going to的一般将来时
（1）There be句型与含有will的一般将来时基本结构：
There will be +名词+其他成分
例如： There will be only one country in the future. 未来会只有一个国家。
（2）There be句型与含有be going to的一般将来时基本结构：
There is / are going to be +名词+其他成分(注意句型中going to 后面的be不能改为have。) 常用来表示将有某事发生。例如：
There is going to be a football match next Saturday in our school.
下周六我们学校将有一场足球比赛。
注意：无论后面加单数名词或名词的复数形式，be都必须用原形。
七、be going to与will 的区别：
（1）be going to 表示近期、眼下就要发生的事情，will 表示的将来时间则较远一些。例如：
He is going to write a letter tonight. 今晚他打算写一封信。
He will write a book one day. 有一天他会写一本书。
（2）be going to 表示根据主观判断将来肯定发生的事情，will表示客观上将来势必发生的事情。例如：
I think our team is going to win the game. 我认为我们队会赢得比赛。
He will be twenty years old next year. 明年他就20岁了。
（3）be going to含有“计划，准备”的意思，而will则没有这个意思。例如：
I’m going to spend my holiday in a village. 我打算在一个小村子里度假。
He will be here in half an hour. 他一小时后到达这里。
（4）在有条件从句的主句中，一般不用 be going to, 而多用will。例如：
We’ll have a picnic if my father is free. 如果我父亲有空，我们会去野餐。
（5）be going to 表示根据目前迹象推断将要发生的事情，而在没有迹象表明的情况下进行的猜测用“will和be going to”皆可。例如：
Look at the clouds. It’s going to rain. 你看天上的云。快下雨了。
My God! We are going to crash. 天哪！我们快撞车了。
I think the weather will be nice.
I think the weather is going to be nice. 我想天会晴朗。

【参考范文】
Life in the 22nd century
Life in the 22nd century will be different from life in the 21st century.
The population is growing fast. There will be more and more people in the world and most of them will live longer than before. People will work fewer hours than they do in the 21st century, and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV, traveling and so on. More people will go to other countries for holidays.
Work in the future will be different, too. Robots will do the dangerous and hard work. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.

一般将来时
一、基本概念
表示将来某个时间要发生的动作或存在的状态，常与一些表示将来的时间状语连用。例如：
I am going to / will watch a football match on TV this evening．
今天晚上我将在电视上看一场足球比赛。
二、基本结构
一般将来时的结构一般由“助动词will+动词原形”或“be going to+动词原形”构成。will是助动词，不能
独立使用，前面的主语不管是什么人称，其后总用will。在名词或代词后常简缩为’ll，并与主语连写在一
起。will的否定形式是will not，缩略形式是won’t。
三、时间状语
一般将来时常用的时间状语：tomorrow, tonight, the day after tomorrow, next week (month, year …), this
afternoon, evening …, soon, in + 时间段等。例如：
Tom will come back in two days．汤姆两天后回来。
I’ll be more careful from now on．从现在起我会更加小心的。
四、基本句型
(1)肯定句
1）主语+will+动词原形+其他
He will come here at once．他马上来这儿。
2）主语+be going to+动词原形+其他
We are going to climb the hill this afternoon．我们打算今天下午去爬山。
(2)否定句
1）主语+ will + not + 动词原形+其他
He will not(won’t)go to the party．他不去参加聚会。
2）主语+be + not + going to+动词原形+其他
He isn’t going to do morning exercises tomorrow．明天他不去做早操。
(3)一般疑问句
1）Will+主语+动词原形+其他
Will he help you with your English 他会帮助你学习英语吗
2）Be动词(Am，Is，Are)+主语+going to+动词原形+其他
Are you going to play computer games tomorrow afternoon
你打算明天下午玩电脑游戏吗
(4)特殊疑问句：疑问词+一般疑问句
—What will the students have for lunch today 学生们今天午饭吃什么
—They will have bread．他们将吃面包。
五、注意的问题：
（1）主语是第一人称I; we 时，常用助动词 shall + 动词原形。例如：
We shall be very happy if you accept it. 如果你接受了它，我们将会很高兴。
I shall write you a letter next month. 下个月我会给你写信。
（2）在问对方是否愿意, 或表示客气的邀请时，常用 will。例如：
Will you go to the zoo with me 你愿意和我去动物园吗？
Will you please open the door 请打开门好吗？
（3）在表示建议或征求对方意见时，用 shall。例如：
Shall we go at ten 我们在10:00走好吗？
六、There be句型与含有will和be going to的一般将来时
（1）There be句型与含有will的一般将来时基本结构：
There will be +名词+其他成分
例如： There will be only one country in the future. 未来会只有一个国家。
（2）There be句型与含有be going to的一般将来时基本结构：
There is / are going to be +名词+其他成分(注意句型中going to 后面的be不能改为have。) 常用来表示将有某事发生。例如：
There is going to be a football match next Saturday in our school.
下周六我们学校将有一场足球比赛。
注意：无论后面加单数名词或名词的复数形式，be都必须用原形。
七、be going to与will 的区别：
（1）be going to 表示近期、眼下就要发生的事情，will 表示的将来时间则较远一些。例如：
He is going to write a letter tonight. 今晚他打算写一封信。
He will write a book one day. 有一天他会写一本书。
（2）be going to 表示根据主观判断将来肯定发生的事情，will表示客观上将来势必发生的事情。例如：
I think our team is going to win the game. 我认为我们队会赢得比赛。
He will be twenty years old next year. 明年他就20岁了。
（3）be going to含有“计划，准备”的意思，而will则没有这个意思。例如：
I’m going to spend my holiday in a village. 我打算在一个小村子里度假。
He will be here in half an hour. 他一小时后到达这里。
（4）在有条件从句的主句中，一般不用 be going to, 而多用will。例如：
We’ll have a picnic if my father is free. 如果我父亲有空，我们会去野餐。
（5）be going to 表示根据目前迹象推断将要发生的事情，而在没有迹象表明的情况下进行的猜测用“will和be going to”皆可。例如：
Look at the clouds. It’s going to rain. 你看天上的云。快下雨了。
My God! We are going to crash. 天哪！我们快撞车了。
