5-1 将来时的基本规则
如果我们在句子中,有需要提到将来的事情,就可以使用将来时,举例来说,以下的句子都用将来时。
I will go to America tomorrow.
He will dance tonight.
Peter will finish his work next month.
如果不用〝will〞,我们可以用〝verb to be +going to+ verb〞,如果我们如此做,以上的三个句子就变成了以下的句子
I am going to go to America tomorrow.
He is going to dance tonight.
将来时常和别的句子用在一起,以下是典型的例子
1. When you come tomorrow, I will already be in Taipei.
2. After I graduate, I am going to be a good doctor in Africa.
5-2 将来时的变形
将来时可以和进行式合起来用,以下是将来进行式的例子
I will be watching TV tomorrow at eight.
He will be eating a big dinner after he gets out of the hospital.
I will be studying mathematics at home when you come.
Two days later, I will be driving a new car.
将来时可以和完成式合在一起用,而成为将来完成式,这种句子都是在于强调将来要完成的事。举例来说,”我明天六点以前,我会完成这工
作了”,就可以用将来完成式:
I will have finished this work by six o’clock tomorrow.
