Unit 7 Will people have robots?
知识点扩展
1. There will be.. = There is/are going to be.
There be就近原则,也就是be动词后面那个名词的单数决定be动词用is,后面的名词是复数用be动词are。
例如:There is an apple and some pears on the table.
There are some pears and an apple on the table.
2. 一般将来时:
是指will+动词原形,或者be going to+动词原形,表示动作将要发生或者存在的一个状态。
一般有tomorrow,next month, in the future这样一些表示将来的时间状语。
3. Books will only be on computer, not on paper.
paper是不可数名词,需要量词来表达“一张纸” a piece of paper, a sheet of paper, 复数是变量词two pieces of paper, two sheets of paper.
paper的第二种意思是报纸/论文/试卷。
4. Will people use money in 100 years?
in+时间段,“在...以后”,经常回答How soon...? 这样的问句,
---How soon will you comeback to Shanghai ?
---In a week.
5. There will be fewer pollution.
many /much.比较级是more(后跟可数复数或不可数名词)
little比较级是less(后跟不可数名词)
few的比较级fewer(后跟可数复数名词)
pollution为不可数名词,它的动词是pollute
air pollution空气污染, water pollution水污染, noise pollution噪音污染
