如果我们想描述未来的事情或表达对将来的预测等,该采用什么方式呢?我们可以用“will+动词原形”来表达,例如:
● There will be a computer on every desk in the future.
将来每个桌子上都会有一台电脑。
● Planes will be very large so flying will be very cheap.
飞机将会很大,所以坐飞机会很便宜。
● It will probably be hot all year.
很可能一整年都很热。
● No one will do heavy work.
任何人都不做重活儿。
从例句中可以看出,will表示的是一般将来时,本身没有人称和数的变化。如果要表达“将来不会……”,就要用其否定形式,可以在will后直接加not,构成will not,或缩略为won't。例如:
● Students will study on the Internet. They won't use books.
学生将在网上学习,他们将不使用书了。
● The teachers won't write on the blackboard with chalk.
老师不会用粉笔在黑板上写字了。
如果询问将来的事,我们就要用其疑问句形式,即将will提到句首,例如:
● Will students go to school in the future?
将来学生还会去学校上学吗?
● Will there be computers in school?
将来学校里会有电脑吗?
● Will people do many things on the Internet?
人们会在互联网上做很多事情吗?
下面我们将will的句式总结如下:
