I was so happy to get a new letter from you! Thanks a lot for all your news.

Sometimes I forget to take an umbrella too. Well, I live in Moscow and summers here are usually short, cloudy and windy. I know that some people like to go for a walk when it rains but not me. I prefer to stay home and wait for the rain to stop. I protect myself from bad weather by wearing warm clothes.

Sorry to hear about your bad buy. What type of shoes did you buy? Why do you want to return them? What size do the shoes have?

Well, I’d better go now as I have to do the shopping. Write soon!

Bye for now,
Vera

Situation 2: A: Are you busy this evening?

B: Well, I really haven’t made any plans. I’ll eat/I’m going to eat dinner, of course. And then I’ll probably watch /I’m probably going to watch TV for a little while.

In situation 2, either will or be going to is possible. Speaker B. has not planned his evening. He is «predicting» his evening (rather than stating any prior plans), so he may use either will or be going to.

Summary

· Be going to always indicates a link with the present.

a) present intention/plans/preparations

b) present evidence of a future event

· When we use will, the emphasis is more on the future than on its link with the present.

· Will is more formal than be going to and is therefore used more extensively in written English.

Write the correct form of going to and use one of these verbs to complete the sentences. Use each verb once only:

1. Look at these clouds! It.

Look at these clouds! It is going to rain.

2. Look at the sun! It. hot today.

3. Susan’s not working very hard. I think she. her exams.

4. He’s very angry. He. to the manager.

5. It’s nearly 4 o’clock. The lesson. soon.

6. I don’t like travelling by plain. I. there.

7. This plan is to complicated. It (not).

8. The President’s very ill. I think he.

9. Watch the baby. She. the bed!

10.This bus is very slow. I think we. the train

Exercise 56

Put the verbs into the be going to future or the shall / will future, if both tenses are possible, choose the one that is most appropriate for the context.

With the verbs to go or to come use the present progressive as future instead of the be going to future.

Two friends, Jack and Dave, are talking.

j: Have you decided what you ‘ are going to do (do) this weekend?

Chart 18. Future Progressive

a) I will begin to study at seven.

You will come at eight.

I will be studying when you come.

b) Right now I am sitting in class.

At this same time tomorrow, I will be sitting in class.

The future progressive expresses an activity that will be in progress at a time in the future.

c) Don’t call me at nine because I won’t be home. I am going to be studying at the library.

The progressive form of be going to:

d) Don’t get impatient. She will be coming soon.

e) Don’t get impatient. She will come soon.

Sometimes there is little or no difference between the future progressive and the simple future, especially when the future event will occur at an indefinite time in the future, as in (d) and (e).

Future Progressive

will be + present participle: I’ll be coming, etc.

The future progressive is not used with verbs that do not normally take the continuous form. See Unit ____.

Contrast: future progressive versus will future

will future: expresses intention, belief, hope, assumption and willingness

future progressive: indicates future activity or event but does not express intention or willingness

I’ll come and visit you tomorrow.

I’ll be coming to visit you tomorrow so I can bring the magazines then.

future activity in normal course of events

Will you come to the meeting tonight?

Will you be coming to the meeting tonight?

Present Tenses for the Future

Present Progressive as Future

· To describe arrangements. We use it to talk about the future when the plans have been made. It is quite informal and is used to describe personal arrangements such as social activities rather than official plans. As it refers to personal arrangements, the subject of the verb should be a person or people and not a thing.

I’m meeting Charlotte for lunch tomorrow.

Put the verbs in brackets into the present progressive tense.

1. My uncle (make) a speech on Friday.

2. I (take) my sister to the ballet tomorrow.

3. He (play) at Wimbledon next summer.

4. I (meet) her at the station at 10

5. The sales (not start) till Monday.

7. The windows (be) cleaned today.

8. We (have) dinner early tonight as we (go) to the theatre.

— I (go) to Holland.

10.I (buy) her a burglar alarm for a wedding present.

11.The elections (be) held next week.

12.The committee (meet) next Wednesday.

13.Smith’s (open) a new branch in this street in July.

14.We have bought a new house and (move) in very soon.

15.I (not take) up judo next winter.

Say if the verb refers to the present or the future.

What are you reading?

Oh, It’s a book about china. I’m going there next month. Barry and I are having a holiday there.

That sounds exciting.

Yes, I’m really looking forward to it. We are doing a tour of the country. So I’m finding out as much as I can about it.

For each situation write a sentence with the present progressive. Use the verbs in brackets.

Louise has accepted an invitation to Dave’s party next week. (go)

She’s going to Dave’s party next week.

1. Elaine has agreed to be in the office on Saturday. (work)

2. Karen has just bought her plane ticket to Acapulco. (fly)

3. Tim and Mike have booked a badminton court for tomorrow afternoon. (play)

4. all the arrangements have been made for Princess Diana to spend a day at the new world Fun Park on June 10. (visit)

Contrast: be going to future versus present progressive as future

· a) I’m going to visit my aunt in hospital tomorrow.

b) I‘m visiting my aunt in hospital tomorrow.

Both these sentences are correct and the difference between them is slight.

Sentence (a) places more emphasis on the intention and sentence (b) places more emphasis on the arrangement.

We do not generally use the present progressive with activities that do not involve the making of an arrangement or plan. We can say: “I’m going to write a letter to my parents tonight” (the intention is important) but we do not say. “I’m writing a letter to my parents tonight (no arrangement is required).

We tend to avoid using verbs of motion, e. g. to go and to come in the be going to future and prefer instead to use the present progressive with these verbs. E. g. We’re going to the theatre tonight.

· a) Look at that helicopter coming down. It’s going to land in a minute.

b) Look at that helicopter coming down. It’s landing in a minute.

Sentence (a) is correct but sentence (b) is not possible. We do not use the present progressive to make a prediction based on present evidence.

· We can only use the present progressive as future with a future time reference or where the future time reference is clear from the context. Where this is not the case, we use the be going to future.

He’s having a swim. (= now, if there is no time reference)

He’s going to have a swim. (in the future)

· Verbs not normally used in the progressive are not used in the present progressive as future.

We cannot say: I‘m needing some help next week.

We can sometimes use verbs not normally used in the continuous with the be going to future. This does not happen very often as these verbs do not describe events that we normally predict or intend.

I’m going to need some help next week.

Rewrite the dialogue substituting the verbs in the be going to future with the present progressive as future where this is possible.

A: Are you going to come to the meeting tomorrow about the proposed staff cuts?

A: Oh yes, definitely.

A: Have you read the report about the cuts?

B: No, not yet. I‘m going to read it tonight. What does it say?

A: Well, there are going to be quite a few cuts in this department.

B: Oh no. I wonder who’s going to lose their jobs.

A: I don’t know. I think they’re going to ask people if they want to take voluntary redundancy.

B: Well, I certainly don’t want that. We’re going to move into a new flat next month and the rents quite high. I don’t know what’s going to happen if I lose my job.

A: oh, don’t worry about it too much. I’m sure everything’s going to be all right. Look. why don’t we go out for a drink after work?

A: I can t. I m going to meet some friends for a meal and then we’re going to go to the cinema.

A:: Well what about tomorrow night? Are you going to go out then?

B: No, I m not going to do anything.

A: So let’s go out after the meeting.

Put the verbs in brackets into the present progressive or the be going to forms.

1. A: I (dye) these curtains.

B: You (do) it yourself or (have) it done?

A: I (have) it done. Who should I take them to?

2. A: You (not ask) your boss to give you a fire in your office?

B: It isn’t worth while. I (leave) at the end of the week.

A: Really? And what you (do) then? You (have) a holiday?

B: No, I (start) another job the following Monday.

3. A: I hear you have bought a caravan. You (use) it for your holidays?

B: No, I (live) in it. I (start) moving my things next week.

A: What you (do) with your house?

B: I (sell) it to the man who sold me the caravan. He (get) married next month.

4. A: He isn’t happy at his boarding school. I (send) him to a day school.

B: Have you decided on the other school?

A: No, but I (see) (have an appointment with) the headmaster of the Park School this afternoon. I’ll probably send him there.

5. A: Tom (arrive) tomorrow.

B: He (spend) the weekend here or (catch) the night train back as usual?

A: (spend) the weekend. He (give) a lecture on Friday and (attend) a big reception on Saturday.

6. A: I hear you’ve bought a new house.

B: Yes. I (move) in next week.

A: You (have) a house warming party?

B: Not just yet. I (paint) the house first. The paintwork’s terrible.

Contrast: Future Progressive versus Present Progressive as future

Present progressive as future: used for plans. The intention is not important.

Future progressive can also be used to refer to plans. It is not generally used when we first tell someone about a plan. It is often used to refer to a plan when this plan is relevant to the main future event in the sentence.

We’re spending the summer on the coast. (Telling someone about our plans)

a: Have you ever been sailing?

B: No. but we’ll be spending the summer on the coast so I might try it then.

a: Will you be using your bike tomorrow?

a: Well, I wonder if I could borrow it for the afternoon.

(Asking about plans in order to make a request for the future that is connected to those plans.)

Put the verbs in brackets into the present progressive or the future progressive.

It is often the case that either tense is correct. Choose the tense that you think is the most appropriate.

1. A: Will you be seeing (you/see) Tony at work tomorrow?

A: Do you think you could give him a message for me?

2 A: where (you/go) this summer?

B: We (go) to the Pyrenees for a couple of weeks in July to do some walking.

3 A: Have you read the notes for the meeting?

B: No not yet, but I (sit) on the train for three hours tomorrow so I can do it then.

4 A: Can you post this letter for me on your way to work?

B: I’m sorry but I (not walk) past the post box this morning because Emma (give) me a lift to work. I’ll post it for you later on though.

B: No, I don’t think so. I (see) quite a lot of her at our play rehearsals next week.

6. A: I must collect my new glasses from the optician.

B: Do you want me to collect them? I (go) past there later on anyway.

Present Simple as Future

· We use the present simple to refer to the future in clauses of time and condition, e. g. after if, unless, when, as soon as, until, before, after, by the time.

We’ll phone you when we get there. Please wait here until I get back.

And after everything, anything, whatever, it is important etc

Everything that you say will be recorded.

· We can use the present simple to refer to future events when the event is part of a fixed timetable, e. g. a travel timetable, a holiday itinerary, other organised events, an official trip by a member of the government.

Спасибо, что написала мне о своей проблеме. Мне так жаль, что несчастлива в новой школе из-за того, что ты там никого не знаешь. У меня есть кое-какой совет для тебя, как завести новых друзей.

Первым делом ты должна попытаться стать частью новой школы. Например, как насчет того, чтобы вступить в драмкружок? Таким образом ты покажешь людям, что ты действительность хочешь быть частью всего этого.

Другое предложение — пригласить пару-тройку твоих одноклассников позаниматься с тобой. Это лучше, чем учить уроки одной и, таким способом ты лучше узнаешь людей.

Я надеюсь, мои советы будут полезными для тебя. И не забудь, все зависит только от тебя. Дай мне знать, как все пойдет. Я думаю, у тебя скоро будет полно новых друзей.

С наилучшими пожеланиями, Паула.

Thank you for writing to me about your problem. I am sorry to hear that you get very stressed before my school exams. I have some advice about how you can improve things.

First of all you should do is try to increase your confidence. The lack of confidence is usual problem of all students befor exams. Learn to face the exams, despite your fear for a possible failure! If you are sure that you know all subject issues, you’ll feel less stressed about exams. What you need to do. Take care for your good preparation. You can create a schedule and organize your time. Try to do your exam revisions with your friends. It’s always better to test your knowledge with friends. Meet with them and ask each other questions. Try to explain to your friends what you have understood from studying, if you can explain to others, then you have understood!

Another advice is try to get more sleep. I know you have problems with it. But you should try to do it. Relax your mind, avoid drinks with caffeine and stay away from bright lights before you go to bed. Open your window and air the room well. And remember to be more confident! This will help both your body and mind work better!

I hope you find my advice useful. Don’t forget it’s up to you to make things happen. Let me know how things go. I think that you will soon calm down.

All the best, Lena

Спасибо, что написала мне о своей проблеме. Мне так жаль, что ты боишься перед школьными экзаменами. У меня есть несколько советов, как все исправить.

В первую очередь ты должна попытаться поднять уровень своей уверенности. Недостаток уверенности — это обычная проблема всех учащихся перед экзаменами. Научись сдавать экзамены, несмотря на свою боязнь возможного провала! Если ты будешь уверена, что знаешь все вопросы по предмету, ты будешь испытывать меньше стресса перед экзаменами. Что тебе нужно сделать. Позаботься о хорошей подготовке. Ты можешь составить расписание и организовать свое время. Постарайся готовиться к экзаменам со своими друзьями. Всегда лучше проверять свои знания с друзьями. Встреться с ними и задавайте друг другу вопросы. Постарайся объяснить друзьям, что ты поняла во время учебы, если ты можешь объяснить другим, значит ты и сама все поняла!

Другой совет — постарайся больше спать. Я знаю, что у тебя с этим проблемы. Но ты должна попытаться сделать это. Очисти свой разум, избегай пить на ночь напитки с содержание кофеина и держись подальше от яркого света перед сном. Открой окно и хорошо проветри комнату. И помни, будь более уверена! Это поможет твоему телу и разуму работать лучше!

Я надеюсь, мои советы будут полезными для тебя. И не забудь, все зависит только от тебя. Дай мне знать, как все пойдет. Я думаю, совсем скоро то успокоишься.

Решение

ОТВЕТ
Dear Steve,
Thank you for your letter. I’m really sorry that you have caught a bad cold. I also feel bored when I feel ill. Usually I stay in bed and read some books. My mum brings hot food and drinks and we can play a board game. I like to read fantasy books, and of course “Harry Potter” books are my favourite.
Honestly I don’t like being ill. Healthy diet, sports and open air help me to keep fit. Much sleep, well−organized work and going to fitness clubs are also important for it. They help me to rest and relax and be in good mood.
I reduced fast food, sweets, chocolate. I eat healthy food. Fruit and vegetables are important for my body.
I do sports regularly. I visit the sport centre, do skating or skiing, swim or do aerobics.
I sleep 8 or 9 hours every night.
I brush my teeth twice a day and wash my face, hands and body well. I avoid any stress and always keep calm.
Hope you will follow some my advices.
Get well soon,
Lena

Перевод ответа
Дорогой Стив,
Спасибо за Ваше письмо. Мне очень жаль, что вы сильно простудились. Мне также скучно, когда мне плохо. Обычно я лежу в постели и читаю книги. Моя мама приносит горячую еду и напитки, и мы можем поиграть в настольную игру. Я люблю читать книги в жанре фэнтези, и, конечно же, мои любимые книги о Гарри Поттере.
Честно говоря, я не люблю болеть. Здоровое питание, спорт и свежий воздух помогают мне поддерживать форму. Для этого также важны много сна, хорошо организованная работа и посещение фитнес−клубов. Они помогают мне отдохнуть, расслабиться и быть в хорошем настроении.
Я сократила фастфуд, сладости, шоколад. Я ем здоровую пищу. Фрукты и овощи важны для моего тела.
Я регулярно занимаюсь спортом. Я хожу в спортивный центр, катаюсь на коньках или лыжах, плаваю или занимаюсь аэробикой.
Я сплю по 8 или 9 часов каждую ночь.
Я чищу зубы два раза в день и хорошо умываю лицо, руки и тело. Я избегаю стрессов и всегда сохраняю спокойствие.
Надеюсь, вы последуете моим советам.
Поскорее поправляйся,
Лена
