语法详解
一般将来时
◆
一般将来时基本概念
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。由助动词shall或will加动词原形构成，shall
用于第一人称，will用于第二、三人称。除英国外的说英语的国家，在陈述句中，即使在第一人称一般也用will，在英国也有这种趋势。在口语中，常用shall,
will的缩写形式为’ll
,
如：I’ll,
you’ll等。shall
not的缩写式为：shan’t,
will
not
的缩写式为：won’t.
肯定句：I/We
shall/will
go.
You/He/She/They
will
go.
否定句：I/We
shall/will
not
go.
You/He/She/They
will
not
go.
疑问句：Shall
I/we
go
?
Will
you/he/she/they
go?
◆
一般将来时常与一些表示将来的时间状语连用
tomorrow（明天），
next
week（下周），
from
now
on（从现在开始）；in
the
future（将来）等。
其时间状语有如下几种：
1.
this引导的短语
如：this
year
2.
tomorrow及其相关短语
如：tomorrow
morning
3.
next引导的短语
如：next
month
4.
from
now
on；in
the
future；in
an
hour等。
◆
一般将来时的五种用法
（1）Will/Shall+
动词原形
表示将要发生的动作或情况。如：
?
I
will
(shall)
arrive
tomorrow.
我明天到。
?
We
won’t
(shan’t
)
be
busy
this
evening.
我们今晚不忙。
①在一般将来时的句子中，有时有表示将来时间的状语，有时没有时间状语，这时要从意思上判断是否指
未来的动作或情况。如：
?
Will
she
come?
她（会）来吗？
?
We’ll
only
stay
for
two
weeks.
我们只待两星期。
?
The
meeting
won’t
last
long.
会开不了多久。
②在以第一人称I或we作主语的问句中，一般使用助动词shall，这时或是征求对方的意见，或是询问一
个情况：
?
Where
shall
we
meet?
我们在哪儿碰头？
?
Shall
we
have
any
classes
tomorrow?
明天我们有课吗？
在这类问句中，近年来也有不少人用will，特别是在美国。如：
?
How
will
I
get
there?
我怎么去？
（2）be
going
to+动词原形
①表示打算、准备做的事。如：
?
How
are
you
going
to
spend
your
holidays?
假期你准备怎样过？
②表示即将发生或肯定要发生的事。如：
?
I
think
it
is
going
to
snow.
我看要下雪了。
?
There’s
going
to
be
a
lot
of
trouble
about
this.
这事肯定会有很多麻烦。
③＂will＂句型与＂be
going
to＂句型区别：前者表示纯粹将来，后者表示打算、计划、准备做的事情，更
强调主语的主观意愿。如：
?
Tomorrow
will
be
Saturday.
明天是周六了。
?
We
are
going
to
visit
Paris
this
summer.
今年夏天我们打算游览巴黎。
（3）用现在进行时表示。
表示位置转移的动词（如：go,
come,
leave,
start,
come,
go,
arrive,
reach等），可用现在进行时态表示按计划安排即将发生的动作。如：
?
Uncle
Wang
is
coming.
王叔叔就要来了。
?
I’m
leaving
for
Beijing.
我要去北京。
（4）用一般现在时表示。
①某些词，如come,
go,
leave,
arrive,
start,
get,
stay,
live,
fly等的一般现在时也可表示根据规定或时间表预计
要发生的动作。如：
?
The
new
term
starts
(begins)
on
August
29th.
新学期八月二十九日开学。
?
He
gets
off
at
the
next
stop.
他下一站下车。
?
The
train
leaves
at
12：00.
火车12点离站。
②当主句为将来时态或表示将来意义时，时间和条件的状语从句必须用一般现在时表将来。如：
?
If
it
doesn’t
rain
tomorrow,
we
will
go
out
for
a
picnic.
如果明天不下雨，我们将出去野餐。
?
Turn
off
the
lights
before
you
leave.
走前关灯。
?
I’ll
write
to
her
when
I
have
time.
我有空会给她写信。
（5）＂be
to+动词原形＂和
＂be
about
to+动词原形＂表示将来。
①＂be
to+动词原形＂表示按计划要发生的事或征求对方意见。如：
?
Are
we
to
go
on
with
this
work?
我们继续干吗？
?
The
boy
is
to
go
to
school
tomorrow.
这个男孩明天要去上学。
?
He
is
to
visit
Japan
next
year.
明年他将访问日本。
②＂be
about
to+动词原形＂表示即将发生的动作，意为：很快，马上。后面一般不跟时间状语。如：
?
We
are
about
to
leave.
我们马上就走。
◇
there
be句型中一般将来时的用法
There
will
be…
There
is/are
going
to
be…
?
There
is
going
to
be
a
basketball
match
this
afternoon.
今天下午将有一场篮球。
?
There
will
be
a
party
in
his
house.
他家将要举行一个聚会。
（6）与条件状语从句和时间状语从句搭配使用时，从句用一般现在时表示，主句用一般将来时。如：
?
If
it
is
fine
tomorrow,
we’ll
go
swimming.
如果明天天气好的话，我们将去游泳。
?
When
he
comes
back,
I’ll
tell
him
to
call
you
back.
他回来后，我会告诉他给你回电话。
（7）在＂祈使句+and/or+陈述句＂句型中，陈述句只能用will或情态动词加动词原形。如：
?
Work
hard,
and
you
will
pass
the
exam.
努力学习，你就会通过考试。
?
Work
hard,
or
you
will
fail
your

In
a
classroom，Garry
Golden
is
sharing
his
ideas
with
some
university
students.
Golden
is
a
futurist.
Futurists
are
scientists
who
study
the
world
today
and
use
that
information
to
make
predictions
about
the
future.
Some
futurists
study
the
environment.
Some
study
human
society.
Golden
studies
transportation—the
science
of
how
to
move
people
from
place
to
place.
Golden
says
there
will
be
fewer
cars
in
cities
in
the
future.
“Cars
take
up
a
lot
of
space，”Golden
says.“
We
have
to
build
lots
of
parking
lots
(停车场)
for
them，but
having
so
many
parking
lots
is
not
efficient．Much
of
the
time
the
parking
lots
are
empty.”
Golden
says
cities
will
make
new
laws
to
limit
(限制)
the
number
of
cars
in
the
future.
“Buses
have
the
same
problem
as
parking
lots，”Golden
says.
Sometimes
they
are
full，and
sometimes
they
are
empty.
Golden
says
in
the
future
people
can
use
phones
to
send
messages
when
they
want
to
take
the
bus.
And
buses
can
change
their
want
to
take
the
bus.
And
buses
can
change
their
ways
to
pick
them
up.
“Traffic
is
a
big
problem
for
cities
today，”Golden
says.
“But
there
are
so
many
things
we
can
do
to
improve
it.
I
believe
that
in
thirty
years
we
will
live
in
a
very
different
world.”
1.
How
many
kinds
of
futurists
are
mentioned
in
the
passage?
A．One.
B．Two.
C．Three.
D．Four.
2.
What's
the
Chinese
meaning
of
the
underlined
word
“efficient”？
A．有效率
B．有资格的
C．有计划的
D．有必要的
3.
Why
will
there
be
fewer
cars
in
the
future?
A．Because
more
people
will
work
at
home.
B．Because
there
will
be
laws
to
limit
the
number
of
cars.
C．Because
cars
will
be
more
expensive.
D．Because
there
will
be
not
enough
parking
lots.
4.
What
is
the
passage
mainly
about?
A．Why
we
should
build
so
many
parking
lots.
B．How
to
improve
our
environment.
C．When
there
will
be
no
traffic
problems
in
cities.
D．How
transportation
will
change

TOKYO,
Japan
(AP)
—
Japan
is
very
serious
about
robotics
(机器人技术).
If
the
droids(机器人)
are
going
to
fit
in,
they
probably
need
to
learn
the
Japanese
custom
of
serving
tea.
Fortunately,
researchers
at
the
University
of
Tokyo
are
exploring
just
that.
In
a
show
this
week,
a
humanoid(有人特点的)
with
camera
eyes
made
by
Kawada
Industries
Inc.,
poured
tea
from
a
bottle
into
a
cup.
Then
another
robot
on
wheels
delivered
the
cup
of
tea
in
an
experimental
room
that
has
sensors
embedded
in
the
floor
and
sofa
as
well
as
cameras
on
the
ceiling,
to
simulate(模仿)
life
with
robot
technology.
＂A
human
being
may
be
faster,
but
you’d
have
to
say
‘Thank
you,’＂
said
University
of
Tokyo
professor
Tomomasa
Sato.
＂That’s
the
best
part
about
a
robot.
You
don’t
have
to
feel
bad
about
asking
it
to
do
things.＂
Sato
believes
Japan,
a
rapidly
aging
society
where
more
than
a
fifth
of
the
population
is
65
or
older,
will
lead
the
world
in
designing
robots
to
care
for
the
elderly,
sick
and
bedridden(卧床不起的).
Already,
monitoring
technologies,
such
as
sensors
that
automatically
turn
on
lights
when
people
enter
a
room,
are
becoming
widespread
in
Japan.
The
walking,
child-size
Asimo
from
Honda
Motor
Co.
greets
people
at
showrooms.
NEC
Corp.
has
developed
a
smaller
companion
robot-on-wheels
called
Papero.
A
seal
robot
available
since
2004
can
entertain
the
elderly
and
others
in
need
of
fuzzy
companionship.
Sato
says
his
experimental
room
is
raising
awareness
about
privacy
questions
that
may
arise
when
electronic
devices(设备)
monitor
a
person’s
movements
down
to
the
smallest
detail.
On
the
bright
side,
the
tea-pouring
humanoid
has
been
programmed
to
do
the
dishes.
5.
What
is
the
best
title
of
this
passage?
A.
“Thank
You”
Will
Never
Be
Needed
in
Japan
B.
Monitoring
Technologies
Are
Widespread
in
Japan
C.
Robot
Is
Designed
to
Care
for
the
Elderly.
D.
Robot
technologies
are
widespread
in
Japanese
daily
life.
6.
The
underlined
word
＂embedded＂
in
the
first
paragraph
probably
means
________________.
A.
fixed
B.
established
C.
settled
D.
rooted

Sato,

of
being
monitored
by
robots
B.
the
technology
of
robots
has
been
highlighted
in
Japan

10.
__________The
fastest
way
of
traveling
is
by
plane.
With
a
modern
airliner(客机),
you
can
travel
in
one
day
to
places
which
needed
a
month
or
more
to
get
to
hundreds
of
years
ago.
Traveling
by
train
is
slower
than
by
plane,
but
you
can
see
the
places
you
are
traveling
through.
Modern
trains
have
comfortable
seats
and
dining-cars.
11.
_____________
Some
people
prefer
to
travel
by
sea.
You
can
visit
many
other
countries
or
different
parts
of
your
country.
12.
__________
Many
people
like
to
travel
by
car.
13.
___________
You
can
travel
three
or
four
hundred
miles
or
only
fifty
or
one
hundred
miles
a
day,
just
as
you
like.
You
can
stop
if
there
is
something
interesting,
for
example,
at
a
good
restaurant
where
you
can
enjoy
a
good
meal,
or
at
a
hotel
to
spend
the
night.
4.
____________
D
B
E
A
C
A.
You
can
make
your
own
timetable.
B.
They
even
make
the
longest
journey
enjoyable.
C.
That’s
why
traveling
by
car
is
popular
for
pleasure
trips,
while
people
usually
take
a
train
or
a
plane
when
they
travel
on
business.
D.
Modern
life
is
impossible
without
traveling.
E.
Ships
are
not
so
fast
as
trains
or
planes,
but
traveling
by
sea
is
a
very
pleasant
way
to
spend
a
holiday.
