special forms in the future tense.
B. Preparation
- T : some exercises
- Ss : review the future tense
C. Procedure
I./ SIMPLE FUTURE .
1. Form:
(+) S + will/shall + V
Eg : I’ll go to market tomorrow.
(-) S + will/shall not + V

Eg : She will not visit her parents next week.
(?) Will/Shall + S + V ? - Yes, S + will/shall
- No, S + will/shall not
Eg : Will you go to school tonight? - Yes, I will
- No, I won’t
Note: will/shall = ’ll ; will not = won’t ; shall not = shan’t
2. Use :
It is used to express
- the speaker’s opinions, assumptions, speculations about the future: (ý kiến, giả định,
sự suy đoán về tương lai)
Eg : He’ll come back.
They’ll wait for us.
- future habitual actions which we assume will take place: (thói quen được giả định
trong tương lai)
Eg : Spring will come again.
- in sentences containing clauses of condition time, and some purpose.
Eg : If you drop that glass, it will break.
When it gets waemer, the bears will wake up.
* But not in an If – clause or time clause even when the meaning is in the future:
Eg : If he is late tomorrow………(not: If he will be late tomorrow)
- in fomal announ cements of future plans and weather forecasts
Eg : It will rain tomorrow

II./ BE GOING TO + V
Eg : I’m going to meet her at the station
He is going to be a dentist when he grows up
They are going to sing an English song
Note : the use of shall (with I or we) to express future time is infrequent and formal.

- 16 -

* “Will” and “be going to” usually give the same meaning, but sometimes they
express different meanings.
- “be going to” and “will” are the same meaning when they are used to make
predictions about the future
Eg: She is going to/will succeed because she works hard.
- “be going to” (but not will) is used to express a preconceived (định trước) plan.
Eg: I bought some wood because I am going to build a bookcase for my
apartment.
- “will” (but not be going to) is used to volunteer or willingness.
Eg: This chair is too heavy for you to carry alone. I’ll help you. (the speaker is
happy to help)
* Using “ probably” with “will”
Eg : Ann will probable not go to the park tomorrow (formal)
Bob probably won’t go to the park tomorrow

III./ BE ABOUT TO + V (SẮP) – IMMEDIATE (NEAR) FUTURE.
- The idion ( thành ngữ ) “be about to do sth” expresses an activity that will happen
in the near future, usually within 5 minutes.
Eg: Ann’s bags are packed,and she is wearing her coat. She is about to leave for
the airport. (Ann is going to leave something in the next minutes)
IV. BESIDES, THE SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE OR PRESENT PROGRESSIVE
TENSE ARE SOMETIMES USED TO EXPRESS DEFINITE FUTURE
ARRANGEMENTS WITH A TIME EXPREEIONS
Eg: The children start schoool on Sunday
What are you doing next Saturday?
- present simple to express future action which happens regularly (sự đều đặn thường
xuyên, lặp đi lặp lại)
Eg: The train SP leaves at 11.20 tomorrow.
- present progressive to express future action.
Eg: He is coming here late.

* Present plans for future activities using : intend, plan, hope
“ Entend, plan, hope” are used in present tense to express present ideas about future
activities.
Eg: - I’m entending/entend to go to Paris.
- I’m planning/plan to take a trip next month.
- I’m hoping/hope to fly to Paris next week.
“Entend, plan, hope” are followed by an infinitive (To-V the simple form of a verb)
Note: Structures
- to be going to do sth
- to entend to do sth
- to be to + V
- to be about + V-ing
- to be on a point of + V- ing
Eg : I’m to teach you = I’m about teaching you.

- 17 -
V./ THE FUTURE PROGRESSIVE TENSE
1. Form: will/shall be + V-ing
2. Use : It is used:
- as an ordinary progressive tense (actions start before a point of time and probably
continue after it)
Eg : When you arrive, they will be cooking the meal
- to express future with attention
Eg: You will be taking the exam next week.

E. Feedback
* The pressent progressive and the be going to form.
Planned future actions can be expressed by the present progressive tense with a time
expression or by the be going to form with or without a time expression. The present

- 18 -
progressive is mainly used for very definite arrangements in the near future. The be
going to form can be used more widely.
Eg: I’m playing bridge tonight with Tom and Ann.
It’s very cold. I’m going to light a fair.
* The present progressive and the simpl future.
The be going to form could be instead of the present progressive, but for the sake of
simplicity students are advided to use only 2 tenses first mentioned.
Eg: I’ll see/am seeing you tomorrow.
* Will + V and the be going to form
Future with intention can usually be expressed by will + V or the be going to
form.Very often either of these can be used, but when the intention is clearly
premeditated the be going to form must be used, and when the intention ins clearly
unpremeditated we must use will + V.
