语法探究　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　　Step 1　观察及探究
　　(一)一般将来时态
　　【观察】
　　—Will people have robots
　　—Yes, they will./No, they won't.
　　“人们会有机器人吗 ”“是的,他们会有的。”/“不,他们不会有。”
　　Kids won't go to school in the future.
　　在将来孩子们不会去上学。
　　There will be a soccer match tomorrow.
　　明天将会有一场足球赛。
　　—Will there be a meeting next week
　　—Yes, there will./No, there won't.
　　“下周会有一次会议吗 ”“是的,会有。”/“不,不会有。”
　　What will our school be like next year
　　明年我们的学校会是什么样子
　　Where will we live in ten years
　　十年后我们将居住在哪里
　　When will we start
　　我们将何时出发
　　How will he get there
　　他将如何到达那里
　　【探究】
　　在英语中,表示将来要发生的动作或存在的状态,要使用　一般将来　时态,谓语动词由“助动词　will　+　动词原形　”构成,这种时态一般和表示　将来　的时间状语连用,如:tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, next week, next year等。肯定句变为否定句时,在will后加not,缩写成won't;变一般疑问句时,将助动词　will　提前,回答时使用助动词　will　。特殊疑问句的结构:特殊疑问词+　will　+主语+　动词原形　+其他
　　(二)省略句
　　【观察】
　　Sounds cool.听起来(很)酷。
　　—I want to live on the earth.
　　—Me, too.
　　“我想居住在地球上。”“我也是。”
　　I'll take a holiday in Beijing when possible.
　　可能的话,我会在北京度假。
　　【探究】
　　在英语中,为了避免重复,常常省略句子的一个或几个成分,这样的句子叫　省略句　。
　　在对话中,谈论双方都知道的对象时,可以省略句子的主语。如:“Sounds cool.” 前面省略了主语　that　; “when possible”的完整结构是“when (it is) possible”。
　　在“—I am going to school. —Me, too.”中,“Me,too.”的完整结构是“I'm going to school, too.”
　　语法巧记口诀:
　　　　一般将来时态
表将来怎么办,将来时态来实现,
will动原紧相连,句子结构特简单。
变否定如何办,写成won't不太难,
一般疑问怎么办,will放在句子前,
特殊疑问不太难,句子结构记心间,
特词will主语前,后面动原还相连。

第二课时(Grammar Focus-3c)
Study of the Text　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
What: This grammar lesson is about the simple future tense and comparatives. Dialogues about future predictions present the use of “will” or “won't” and comparatives including “fewer” “less” “more” to modify uncountable and countable nouns.
Why: Grammar Focus is to present the use of the simple future tense and the three comparative words. 3a is to help students to distinguish differences among “fewer” “less” and “more”. 3b is to broaden students' sphere of predictions and to develop their writing ability. 3c is to activate students' study interest and imagination of the future.
How: Questions and answers are used to present sentences and expressions using “will” “fewer” “less” and “more”. After tips for differences among “fewer” “less” and “more”, filling in blanks in sentences is useful for students to consolidate knowledge. Lastly, students can practice grammar by making sentences and describing pictures.
