一、课文原文

Lesson 91 Poor Ian

Has Ian sold his house yet?

Yes, he has. He sold it last week.

Has he moved to his new house yet?

No, not yet. He’s still here. He’s going to move tomorrow.

When? Tomorrow morning?

No. Tomorrow afternoon. I’ll miss him. He has always been a good neighbour.

He’s a very nice person. We'll all miss him.

When will the new people move into this house?

I think that they'll move in the day after tomorrow.

Will you see Ian today, Jenny?

Yes, I will.

Please give him my regards.

Poor Ian! He didn’t want to leave this house.

No, he didn’t want to leave, but his wife did!

二、每课一句

本课开始学习一般将来时的用法，本课侧重学习的是该时态的构成方式、基本用法和标志词tomorrow系列的用法。

一、构成方式

一般将来时的构成方式为will do，其中will为助动词，口语中常可缩略

为“'ll”，do为动词原形。如：

She will visist our school tomorrow.

其否定句只要在will后面加上not，即will not，口语中可缩略为won't。

如：

She will not visit our school tomorrow.
She won't visit our school tomorrow.

其一般疑问句只要把will提到句首即可，如：

- Will she visit your school tomorrow?
- Yes, she will.
- No, she won't.

如果对tomorrow提问，其问句为：

When will she visit your school?

【注意】

在英式英语中，如果主语是第一人称，往往会用shall来代替will。如：

I shall hold a party at home tomorrow.
We shall go there on foot tomorrow.

二、基本用法

一般将来时主要用来表示将来会发生的状态或动作。如：

动作：He will go to Paris tomorrow.
状态：They will be in Shanghai tomorrow.

三、标志词tomorrow系列

一般将来时最为常见的标志词就是tomorrow及其相关表达，主要有：

1、tomorrow
2、tomorrow morning / afternoon / evening / night
3、the day after tomorrow（后天）

其中，后天的上午、下午、傍晚和晚上的表达分别为：

the day after tomorrow in the morning
the day after tomorrow in the afternoon
the day after tomorrow in the evening
the night after next

同样都表将来，要注意will do与be going to do的区别：

1、be going to do侧重表达主观意愿或打算，而will do则只是客观描述将来会发生的事情，并不强调是否是主语的主观意愿。
2、be going to do一般表示短时间内就会去做的事情，而will do的间隔时间则相对更长些。
