Future continuous 将来进行时
Grammar
一、将来进行时的构成
shall (will) + (not) be + doing
二、将来进行时的用法
1. 表示将来某个时刻正在进行的或持续的动作。
What will you be doing this time tomorrow
I’ll be taking my holidays soon.
2. 将来进行时常与特定的将来时间状语连用。
At nine o’clock tonight I will be doing my homework.
In the year 3000 a lot of people will be living on space stations.
3. 表示已经决定或安排要发生的动作或事情。
You needn’t cook supper, Mum. I shall be cooking dinner tonight.
4. 表示预料中要发生的动作。
Tom will be telling you about it this afternoon.
1.两者基本用法不一样
将来进行时 V.S 一般将来时
将来进行时表示将来某时正在进行的动作,一般将来时表示将来某时将要发生的动作。
例:
What will you be doing this time tomorrow
明天这个时候你会在做什么呢?
What will you do tomorrow
你明天干什么?
将来进行时 V.S 一般将来时
2. 两者均可表示将来,但用将来进行时语气更委婉。
When will you finish these letters
你什么什候处理完这些信件?
When will you be seeing Mr White
你什么时候见怀特先生?
直接询问,如上司对下属
委婉询问,如下属对上司
将来进行时 V.S 一般将来时
3. 有时一般将来时中的will含有“愿意”的意思,而用将来进行时则没有此意,只是单纯地谈未来情况。
Mary won’t pay this bill.
玛丽不肯付这笔钱。
Mary won’t be paying this bill.
不会由玛丽来付钱。
