进行时,顾名思义,是正在进行中的意思。大家都很熟悉现在进行时,那么将来进行时又是什么样的呢?请看下文讲解。

The Future Continuous tense is often used in English as a way to talk about something happening at a given point in the future.
将来进行时经常用来谈论未来某个时间点会发生的事情。

The Future Continuous tense isn't taught very much in English classes but, in fact, English speakers use it a lot. You will sound much more natural if you master this tense.
将来进行时可能不怎么作为教学内容在课堂上出现,但是英语人士经常使用这个时态。如果你掌握了这个时态,你的英语听起来会更加地道。

Future Continuous has two different forms: "will be doing " and "be going to be doing" Unlike Simple Future forms, Future Continuous forms are usually interchangeable.
将来进行时有着两种不同的形式:“will be doing”和“be going to be doing”不同于一般将来时,将来进行时的两种形式经常可以互换。

(注意也有shall be doing的用法,只用于英式英语。)

1、 “will”的用法 [will be doing]
例子:
(1)等待飞机抵达。
You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.
Will you be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight?
You will not be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.

(2)吃早餐。
we will be eating breakfast.
Will we be eating breakfast?
We will not be eating breakfast.

(3)在聚会上唱歌跳舞。
She will be singing and dancing at the party.

2、"be going to "的用法 [am/is/are + going to be doing]
例子:
(1)等待飞机抵达。
You are going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.
Are you going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight?
You are not going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.

(2)吃早餐。

(3)在聚会上唱歌跳舞。

REMEMBER :It is possible to use either "will" or "be going to" to create the Future Continuous with little difference in meaning.
记住:使用“will”或者“be going to”有时可表达相同的意思(可互换)。
