P5 Activity 3：Work in pairs and try to underline the most appropriate form of the verb.Answers:will be likeare you going to dodoes the plane arriveare going to haveis comingwill ringis going to studywill goStep GrammarThe future continuous (将来进行时):1.结构：助动词shall/ will + be + 现在分词shall用于第一人称单、复数; will用于各种人称。e.g. Our work will end in March. We will/shall be returning to New York. 我们的工作3月结束, 之后我们将回到纽约。2. 用法1）表示将来某一时刻或某一段时间里正在进行的动作。如： e.g. We will be seeing a fashion show this time tomorrow afternoon. Miss Wang will be working on this experiment until next month.2） 用于代替一般将来时（多用于口语中），使语言生动形象。用法如下：（1） 预料将要发生的动作或情况。 e.g. The train will be arriving soon.（2） 表示现已决定或安排将要做的事。e.g. Doctor Smith will be giving another talk on family health at the same time next week.3）解释将要发生动作的原因。e.g. I neednt write to him, because Ill be seeing him tomorrow.4）表示未来结果。e.g. Stop the child or hell be falling over.5）表示现在或未来一个动作之后接着的另一个动作，前后两个动作是根据安排紧接着进行的。e.g. Bob is leaving school in July, then hell be going to university.6） 表示婉转口气，表达有礼貌的询问或请求。e.g. Will you be having some tea? Will you be lending me your dictionary?3. 注意：将来进行时可以与be going to连用。e.g. Im going to be working all day tomorrow, so I wont have time to buy Mothers present.将来进行时常用的时间状语有soon, tomorrow, this evening, on Sunday, by this time tomorrow, in two days, tomorrow evening等。4.将来进行时与现在进行时的几点区别：1） 现在进行时表示一种经过考虑的、将来要进行的动作， 而将来进行时通常表示正常过程中会发生的动作，因此将来进行时不如现在进行时那样肯定，比后者偶然性要大一些：e.g. I am seeing Tom tomorrow.明天我要和汤姆见面。Ill be seeing Tom tomorrow.明天我会见到汤姆。第一句意指汤姆或说话人已经特意安排了这次会面，而第二句则意指汤姆和说话人将在日常进程中见面。不过这种差别并不是在任何情况下都很重要，而且常常两者都可以使用。2) 现在进行时通常用于表示不远的将来的动作， 必须有确定的时间，而将来进行时可以和确定的时间状语连用，也可以不连用；将来进行时既可以表示不远的将来的动作，也可以表示较远的将来的动作。可以说：We are meeting him tomorrow. 但不说 We are meeting him next year.5.
