将来进行时:在未来的时间将会开始,并且进行下去的一种时态。上一篇我们讲述了将来进行时的结构为“will be doing”和“is going to be doing”。那么具体又该怎么使用呢?这里小编总结了将来进行时的一些常见用法。

一、

The most common use of the Future Continuous Tense is to describe an activity that will occur in the future and continue for a certain period of time.
将来进行时最常见的用法就是用来描述一个未来将会发生、并且持续一段时间的动作。

例子:

(2)

我今晚会工作到很晚。

(3)

Students will be dancing at the party tomorrow.
学生们会在明天的聚会上跳舞。

(4)

We'll be flying over the Atlantic Ocean for three hours.
我们将会用3小时飞过大西洋。

二、

The Future Continuous is also used when we talk about an activity that will continue over a period of time from now into the future.
将来进行时也用来谈论从现在开始一直持续到未来的一个动作。

例子:

(1)

I'll be working until 6 o'clock.
我会一直工作到6点。

(2)

She will be running until she gets tired.
她会一直跑步到累为止。

(3)

三、

We can also use the Future Continuous to project ourselves into the future and see something happening.
我们也能使用将来进行时来推测未来会发生的事情。

例子:

(1)

You'll recognize me when you get there. I'll be wearing jeans and a white T-shirt.
你到了就能认出我了。我会穿牛仔裤和白色T恤。

(2)

This time tomorrow, I'll be sitting at a table at the corner and reading a newspaper.
明天的这个时候,我会坐在一个角落里看我的报纸。

总结
以上三点总得来说只需要注意一点:持续性动作。不管是描述现在开始的事情,还是未来会发生的事情,一定要注意使用持续性动词。
