Period 5 Grammar and usage
Teaching aims
Learn the grammar ‘Future continuous tense.
Teaching aids
Computer, multi-media Teaching
Teaching procedures
Step 1: Future continuous tense
Continuous (Progressive) Tenses
Verbs in Continuous Tenses always express "actions" that are in progress during the time framework indicated: present, past, future, or any of the perfect timeframes.
Continuous Tenses always engage the verb "BE," which expresses the timeframe of the action in progress. The main verb is always in the continuous form (ING).
Future continuous tense
The Future Continuous Tense applies the verb "BE" in the Future Tense (WILL BE). The main verb is always in the present participle form. Or to make it clear, it is formed by using will be or shah be with the verb form ending in -ing.
The Future Continuous Tense is used to express an action expected to be in progress at another relative time in the future or to describe an ongoing or continuous action that will take place in the future. An adverb of time that indicates the future, is often used with the future continuous tense, e.g.:
1) I will be eating dinner with my friends at 7 tonight.
2) I will be riding the bus at 11:30
3) At this time next year, I'll be scuba diving off Mexico.
4) What will you be doing when new year arrives?
4) We 'll be having dinner when the film starts
5) Take your umbrella. It will be raining when you return.
6) Next week we will be having a party. Can you come?
7) The fog shall be covering the land and sea.
8) The temperature will not be rising above 11 ?C
9) Next week, Dr Tanaka will be presenting her ongoing research into genetically modified plants.
10) Dr Tanaka will be investigating issues of biodiversity with colleagues in the United States when she takes up her scholarship.
11) Changes in government funding for universities will be aiming to stop Australians who have technical and scientific expertise leaving the country.
12) Many countries shall be signing an agreement on controlling greenhouse emissions in the hope of limiting the depletion of the ozone layer.
Step 2: More about Future continuous tense
1. Compare the following sentences, and find the differences between them.
1) Toby will be climbing in the Himalayas all next week.
2) Toby will not be in London on 5th September. He will be climbing in the Himalayas.
3) Toby will go and climb in the Himalayas next week.
In the first sentence, the action climbing in the Himalayas will be a continuous activity next week and Toby will probably not do other things. In the second sentence, the action climbing in the Himalayas starts before 5th September and probably continues after it. In the third sentence, will +the base form of a verb expresses future with intention. The speaker announces a deliberate future action in accordance with Toby's wish.
2. Go over Point 1 on page 28 to get familiar with situations in which the future continuous tense is usually used.
3. Discuss how to form the future continuous tense in statements, in questions and in short answers, and then go over Point 2 on page 28.
4.Go over the exercises on page 29. Read the note first to find out what Wang Hailing, the boss, wants David to do. Then read the schedule to find out what David is going to do from 13th June to 30th June.
5. Complete the reply by David. Pay attention to the forms of the verbs or auxiliary verbs used.
Answers (1) traveling (2) will be (3) will be (4) will (5) will be exploring
6. Do Part C1 on page 96 in Workbook to get more practice with the future continuous tense Answers Part C1 (page 96)
1 am planning will be helping 2 will be waiting will be standing will be having
3 have been practicing will be giving 4 Will be using will be staying
Step 3: Future in the past
Future tense
In linguistics, a future tense is a verb form that marks the event described by a verb as not having happened yet, but expected to in the future.
The Simple Past Future(The Future-in-the-Past Tense) 過去將來時
The past future tense is used to indicate future time within the past. It has two purposes. First, it is used in the reported speech to express what is expressed in the actual speech by the future tense. Second, it is used to express various degrees of supposition.
Form l: would+ 動詞原形would 可簡縮為:I'd, you'd, he'd 等:would not 常簡縮為 wouldn't.
Form 2: was/were going to +動詞原形 Form 3: was/were (about) to +動詞原形
Form 4: was/were+-ing
e.g.: 1) I told him I should visit it at three o'clock.
2) I didn't know if she would come.
3) I wasn't sure whether he would do it.
4) It was said that the building would be completed in a year.
5) We asked him where we should go to work next week.
6) He said he would write to me as soon as possible.
7) I was told that we would be given an exam soon.
8) Lei lei said that she would visit her uncle the next Saturday.
9) I'm here because they/he told me to come back when I had my phone number。（時間狀語從句中一般過去時代替過去將來時）
l0) I didn't know if she was going to come.
11) Lei Lei said that she was going to visit her uncle the next Saturday.
12) Yesterday I said that we would/were going to do it today.
Step 4: More about Future in the past
1. We can use different verb forms to express future in the past. Read the following sentences and identify which tense are used in these sentences.
Toby said that he would go and climb in the Himalayas soon. (future in the past)
Toby was busy packing, (the past continuous tense) because he was leaving that night. (future in the past)
Toby phoned his friend and told him he was going to leave at 10. (future in the past)
Toby was just about to dive into the sea when he saw a shark. (future in the past)
Toby said goodbye to his friend, not knowing that they were never to meet again. (future in the past)
2. Go over Point 1 on page 30 to get familiar with situations in which future in the past is used. In the sentence "They set off at 9 a .m. and would reach the airport an hour later," future in the past is used to express what would happen an hour later when the first action set off was done at 9 a . m.
In the sentence "I was going to leave, but then it rained," future in the past is used to express a past intention. The speaker talks about what happened to him/her in the past when he/she wanted to do something. He/She wanted to leave and was just about to do so, but then it rained. So he/she probably couldn't leave.
In the sentence "Colin called Jennifer to say that he was seeing her late that afternoon," the past continuous tense is used to express a past arrangement. The speaker tells us what Colin arranged to do late that afternoon.
In the sentence "The journey that was to change Toby's life started in July that year," future in the past is used to express an idea of destiny.
3. Go over Point 2 on page 30 to get familiar with how future in the past is used in statements. Other verb forms, such as was/were to and was/were about to can also be used to express future in the past.
4. Finish Part A on page 30 individually to make sure you understand situations that call for future in the past. We'll check the answers with the whole class.

The sentences used to describe the beauty of Shangri-la. (... a beautiful kingdom where three rivers joined together, snow-capped mountains reached to the sky, and fields of long grass covered the earth.
Three mountains, Meili, Baimang and Haba which are covered with snow, tower over the land.
Lakes, surrounded by vast grasslands, look like jewels. Sheep, cows and horses feed freely on the green grass and the forests around are home to lots of birds and animals.)
