　语法  Grammar in use

将来时 be  going  to

（1）将来时be going to的形式由am/is/are going to +动词原形构成。

（2）将来时be going to的用法

A表示"打算"、"准备"在最近做某事。（在非正式语体中，一般多用be going to，而不用will。）

I am going to put it on the floor.

我打算把它放在地板上。

He is going to paint the bookcase tomorrow.

他准备明天给书架刷漆。

B表示按计划、安排要发生的事：

The meeting is going to begin at nine.

C表示预言一件事即将发生：

The meeting is going to begin at nine.

会议将在9点开始。

It's going to rain!

天要下雨了！

She's going to faint!

她要晕倒了！

（3）be going to的疑问式与否定式

将助动词be提至句首可将陈述句变为一般疑问句。如：

George is going to paint it pink.

乔治打算把它刷成粉红色。

Is George going to paint it pink?

乔治打算把它刷成粉红色吗？

在助动词后面加上not可以得到否定句。如上句可变为：

George is not going to point it pink.

乔治不打算把它刷成粉红色。
