爱华网在前面的语法点中，Kelly老师已经给同学们讲述了5中时态了，它们是：
（1）过去时间动作或状态的：一般过去时 过去进行时
（2）现在时间内动作和状态： 一般现在时 现在进行时
（3）过去的动作和现在有联系： 现在完成时
今天Kelly老师介绍一个新的时态： 一般将来时
毋庸置疑，一般将来时句子中表示的动作肯定还没有发生，一般将来时表示将来要发生的事情。

（二）一般将来时结构：
1. will +do
will 适用于所有的人称，而且will没有人称变化；will 之后用动词原形（注：am,is,are的原形为be)

shall 仅适用于第一人称I和we,shall可以用will来代替。

be goingto适合所有的人称，be动词使用相应的形式am, is, are
be going to 后直接用动词原形，也可以加名词，eg. I am going to the park this weekend.
