【巧辨异同】
1．be going to do与will do
be going to与will两者都可表示将要发生的事，将要去做某事，但它们有如下几点区别：
(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。如：
He is going to write a letter tonight．今晚他要写信。
He will write a book one day．将来有一天他要写本书。
(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。如：He is seriously ill．He is going to die．他病得很严重，快要死了。
He will be twenty years old．他快二十岁了。
(3)begoing to含有“计划，准备”的意思，而will则没有这个意思。如：She is going to lend us her book．她打算把书借给我们。He will be here in half an hour．他半小时后到。
(4)在有条件从句的主句中，一般不用be going to，而多用will。如： If any beast comes at you，I’ll stay with you and help you．如果有野兽袭击你，我会和你呆在一起帮助你。
适时点津
be doing也可以表达打算要做的事。如：
What are you doing for vacation?你假期打算做什么?
活学活用

A．am going to lend B．will lend C．have lent D．am to lend

do；若是表示某个意图没有经过事先考虑，而是在说话的当时才临时想到的，则通常用will do。本题就是在事先没有考虑的情况下做出的回答。
答案：B
2．job与work
(1)job是可数名词，指零活或某个具体的工作职位。如：She has a job at a children’s hospital．她在儿童医院工作。
(2)work是不可数名词，可以指体力劳动、脑力劳动等，不能和冠词a连用，但通常可以和job互换。如：He has too much work to do．他要做的工作太多。
适时点津
一份工作可以说成a piece of work。
活学活用
It’s not easy to keep house．
A．job B．work C．works
解析：根据句意“管家是件不容易的事。’’可知此处应填名词，另外此处没有冠词a，故应选work。
答案．B

Simon Cowell，one of the judges of the talent show spoke of his shock over Ms Boyle’s voice。“This lady came up，and l’m thinking，‘This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea．’That changed when she began to sing J Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables．She knew we were going to have that reaction and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face midway through—it was one of my favorite moments，”Cowell said．
The performance was posted on line and before long，the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world．Speaking from her home in Scotland，Ms Boyle said that she hadn’t thought of changing her appearance．She said that her friend helped her with makeup．“I mean，that’s hardly a makeover．”she added．

1．be going to do与will do
be going to与will两者都可表示将要发生的事，将要去做某事，但它们有如下几点区别：

He is going to write a letter tonight．今晚他要写信。
He will write a book one day．将来有一天他要写本书。
(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。如：He is seriously ill．He is going to die．他病得很严重，快要死了。
He will be twenty years old．他快二十岁了。
(3)begoing to含有“计划，准备”的意思，而will则没有这个意思。如：She is going to lend us her book．她打算把书借给我们。He will be here in half an hour．他半小时后到。
(4)在有条件从句的主句中，一般不用be going to，而多用will。如： If any beast comes at you，I’ll stay with you and help you．如果有野兽袭击你，我会和你呆在一起帮助你。

When we talk about stars，especially women stars，it seems that they are always young，pretty and own charming body shapes．But recently a Britain’s Got Talent(英国达人)star Susan Boyle has changed our views absolutely(完全地)．
Simon Cowell，one of the judges of the talent show spoke of his shock over Ms Boyle’s voice。“This lady came up，and l’m thinking，‘This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea．’That changed when she began to sing J Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables．She knew we were going to have that reaction and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face midway through—it was one of my favorite moments，”Cowell said．
The performance was posted on line and before long，the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world．Speaking from her home in Scotland，Ms Boyle said that she hadn’t thought of changing her appearance．She said that her friend helped her with makeup．“I mean，that’s hardly a makeover．”she added．
