Key structures
The moment you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise.
表示将要发生的事情
Instead of saying: we can say:
He will arrive tomorrow. He is arriving tomorrow.
He will come at 4 o’clock.
She will leave in two days’ time.
Note:
在英语中,现在进行时也可用来表示为将来安排好的活动和事件。这种用法通常需要一个表示时间的状语(往往是不久的将来)。arrive,come,go,leave 等动词的进行式经常有这种用法,表示行程安排有关的“将到达,将离去”等意思.
Study these sentence. Pay close attention to the words in color:
If it rains tomorrow we shall stay at home.
I shall wait here until he comes
As soon as the rain stops, we shall go out.
You must finish your dinner before you ___(leave) the table.
I will give you the message when he ____(return).
Note:
当时间状语从句表示将来时,在 after,as soon as,before,by the time,the moment,till,until 和 when等后面通常不用一般将来时而用一般现在时.
Special difficulties:
由名词+名词构成的复合名词
A car key a village bar
A world record a flower shop
A gold watch a taxi driver
Note:
第一个名词通常起形容词(或修饰语)的作用,而且一般都用单数。这类复合名词可以代替 of结构,
