1．用be doing表示将来：主要意义是表示按计划、安排即将发生的动作，常用于位置转移的动词。 如：go，come，leave，arrive等，也可用于其他动作动词。 We are having fish for dinner. We are moving to a different hotel the day after tomorrow. 这种用法通常带有表示将来的时间状语，如果不带时间状语，则根据上下文可表示最近即将发生的动作。 A: Where are you going? B: I am going for a walk. Are you coming with me? A: Yes，I am just coming. Wait for me. 2．用be going to do表示将来：主要意义，一是表示“意图”，即打算在最近的将来或将来进行某事。 Are you going to post that letter? How long is he going to stay here? I am going to book a ticket. 另一意义是表示“预见”，即现在已有迹象表明将要发生或即将发生某种情况。 It’s going to rain. George is putting on weight; he is going to be quite fat. 3. 用will/ shall do表示将来： 一是表示预见 You will feel better after taking this medicine. Do you think it will rain? 二是表示意图. I will not lend the book to you. Take it easy，I will not do it any longer. 基本结构：She will come to have class tomorrow. Will she come to have class tomorrow? She won’t come to have class tomorrow. What will she do tomorrow? 肯定形式：①am/is/are going to + do；②will/shall + do. 否定形式：①am/is/are going not to + do；②will/shall not + do. 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?
◆一般将来时用法 （1）一般将来时表示将要发生的动作或情况。 例如：I will(shall) arrive tomorrow.我明天到。 Will you be free tonight? 你今晚有空吗？ We won’t (shan’t) be busy this evening. 我们今晚不忙。 （2）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。例如： 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。 （3）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(a)，或是询问一个情况(b)： a. Where shall we meet? 我们在哪儿碰头？ b. 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。例如： How will I get there? 我怎么去？ （4）be going to+动词原形 a.表示打算、准备做的事。例如： We are going to put up a building here.我们打算在这里盖一座楼。 How are you going to spend your holidays?假期你准备怎样过？ b.表示即将发生或肯定要发生的事。例如： 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。 c.“will”句型与“be going to”句型，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。例如： 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。 （5）There be 的一般将来时形式：There is / are going to be...... = There will be ........
