將來進(jìn)行時(shí)與現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)的搭配使用

像其他進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)一樣，將來進(jìn)行時(shí)通常和某一時(shí)刻連用，表示一個(gè)動(dòng)作在該時(shí)刻之前開始竝且很可能在該時(shí)刻之後仍然繼續(xù)。這種用法最好通過實(shí)例來了解。設(shè)想一個(gè)班的學(xué)生上午9點(diǎn)半在做什麼，然後可以這樣表達(dá)：

Now they are sitting in their classroom. They are listening to a tape. This time tomorrow they will be sitting in the cinema. They will be watching a film. On Saturday there is no class. So on Saturday they will not be sitting in the classroom. They will be doing other things. Bill will be playing tennis. Ann will be shopping. George will still be having breakfast. 現(xiàn)在他們正坐在教室裡。他們在聽錄音。明天這個(gè)時(shí)候他們會坐在電影院裡看電影。星期六沒有課。因此，星期六這時(shí)候他們不在教室裡。他們會做別的事情。比爾會在打網(wǎng)球，安會去買東西，喬治會還在喫早飯。

另外，進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)也可以和一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)連用。如：

Peter has been invited to dinner with Ann and Tom. He was asked to come at eight but tells another friend that he intends to arrive at seven. The friend tries to dissuade him, 'When you arrive they'll still be cooking the meal!' 彼得應(yīng)邀與安和湯姆一起喫飯。他們要彼得8點(diǎn)到，但彼得卻告訴另一位朋友說他自己想在7點(diǎn)到。那位朋友勸阻他說：“你到的時(shí)候，他們還在做飯呢!”
