对将要发生的事、或打算、计划、决定要做的事情，用“begoing

to

＋动词原形”表达。口语中多用此形式表将来，且这种表达表示一个事前考虑好的意图，相当于中文的“打算、计划、准备”。而“will/shall

＋动词原形”表示未经事先考虑的意图。

书面语中当主语为第一人称I/we时，常用“shall”。而口语中所有人称和数都可用“will”。

willnot=won’t.

以前我们还学习过用进行时表将来的表达。一般将来时句型如下：（1）肯定句：主语＋will/shall

＋动词原形。（2）否定句：主语＋will/shallnot

＋动词原形。（3）疑问句：Will/Shall

＋主语＋动词原形

注意：对疑问句的回答用will或shall，但是在肯定回答中用不能用缩写，如I’ll,只能说“Yes,Iwill.”因为will与shall在句末不能用缩写。2.“therebe

”

句型一般将来时的表达。肯定句：Therewillbe

＋名词（短语）否定句：Therewillnot/won’tbe

＋名词（短语）一般疑问句：

Willtherebe

＋名词（短语）？

－Yes,therewill./No,therewon’t.

注意：由于will后接动词原形，因此在“therebe”句型一般将来时的句中will之后用be动词的原形，即“be”一词，无论后面是单、复数或不可数名词（短语）。

e.g.Therewon’tbeanypapermoney.

Therewillonlybeonecountry.

Therewillbemoreleisuretime.
