Part2 单元语法
一般将来时的被动语态
一般将来时的被动语态用来表示将要发生的被动行为,强调主语为“动作的承受者”,多用于不需要提及动作发出者或者强调主谓为被动关系的将来情况。
考点1 一般将来时被动语态谓语部分构成
结构类型
构成
例句(主动→被动)
will 结构(通用)
will be + 动词的过去分词(done)
主动: They will hold the meeting tomorrow. 他们明天将举行会议。
被动: The meeting will be held tomorrow. 会议明天将被举行。
be going to 结构(计划)
be(am/is/are)
going to be + 动词的过去分词(done)
主动: We are going to build a bridge here. 我们打算在这里建一座桥。
被动: A bridge is going to be built here. 一座桥将在这里被建。
考点2 常见用法
1. 表示“单纯未来的被动动作”(不强调“计划”):用“will be + 动词的过去分词”,常搭配时间状语(tomorrow/next week)或状语从句(when/as soon as...)。
例:The handmade gift boxes for Teachers’ Day will be packed by our group tomorrow.我们小组将于明天打包这些教师节手工礼盒。
The old playground’s broken swing will be fixed as soon as the repairman comes. 修理工一来,旧操场的坏秋千就会被修理。
2. 表示 “提前计划好的未来被动动作”:用“be going to be + 动词的过去分词”,隐含“已安排好”的逻辑。
例:These dirty clothes are going to be washed this afternoon. 这些脏衣服今天下午将要被洗。

Dear astronauts,
I am writing to you with great excitement. I am proud of your remarkable accomplishments made in China’s space expeditions. With my curiosity about your life and work in the space station, I am writing to enquire about your situation. What’s the coolest thing you’ve done in space? Have you got used to the weightless environment? If you miss your family, is it possible for you to make video calls on a regular basis? What’s the most difficult thing about living in space? I have long been curious about these questions. Additionally, I am looking forward to“Tiangong Class”. I hope we can learn a lot about space from it.
Wish you a successful mission and a comfortable journey! We all hope you will return to Earth smoothly and land safely.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua

Dear Tom,
I’m glad to receive your email. You asked about China’s space achievements, and I’d like to share some with you. By the end of April in 2025, China’s Long March rockets had been launched 573 times. Astronauts on Tiangong Space Station have done over 200 science projects, like growing rice successfully. Also, Chang’e 6 brought back lunar soil from the moon’s far side in 2024. Space exploration helps us know the universe better and even improves our life on Earth. I believe China will make more great achievements in the future.
I believe you’ll be more interested in China’s space program!
Yours,
Li Hua
