FUTURE TENSE

FUTURE TENSE

OBJECTIVE

By the end of the lesson, students should be able to express future plans in oral and written way.

GRAMMAR


WILL and BE GOING TO express future time and often have essentially the same meaning.

(WILL and BE GOING TO expresan el tiempo futuro y a menudo tienen esencialmente el mismo significado.)

WILL
Will typically expresses predictions about the future. Will does not take a final -s Will is followed immediately by the simple form of the verb

(Will expresa típicamente predicciones sobre el futuro. Will no lleva -s final Will va seguido inmediatamente de la forma simple del verbo)

Ex: Ann will come tomorrow around 5:00

Negative:     Will +  not = won´t

Alex will not be here tomorrow Alex won´t be here tomorrow.

Question:

Will  +   subject   + main verb

Will you be here tomorrow?    Yes, I will.      No, I won´t
Will is often contracted with pronouns:  I´ll,     you´ll,    he´ll.

Will is used to express willingness. In this case, will expresses a decision the speaker makes at the moment of speaking.

(WILL se utiliza para expresar disposición. En este caso, WILL expresa una decisión que el hablante toma en el momento de hablar).


We often use will in these situations:

(Nosotros usamos frecuentemente WILL en estas situaciones).

 a) Offering to do something. (Ofrecerse para hacer algo)

                                   That bag looks heavy. I will help you with it.

               A:  You know that book I lent you. Can I have it back if you have finished with it.

               B:   Of course. I will give it to you this afternoon.

    c)  Promising to do something. (Prometer hacer algo)

                  Thanks for lending me the money. I will pay you back on Friday 

    d) Asking somebody to do something. (Pedirle a alguien hacer algo)

                  Will you be quiet?       I am trying to concentrate.

  BE GOING TO

Anna is going to come tomorrow around 5:00.

Be going to also commonly expresses predictions about the future. In informal speech, going to is often pronounced "gonna"

(Be GOING TO también expresa comúnmente predicciones sobre el futuro. En el habla informal, going to se suele pronunciar "gonna")


Negative:                         Be  +    not   +     going to
                                        Tom isn´t going to come.


Question:                 Be    +   subject     +   going to

R READING

Read the following text  (Lee el siguiente texto)        

HOW WILL WE LIVE?

A. PICTURE THIS: You wake up in the morning. A soft light turns on in your room. You go into the bathroom at the shower starts. The water is the perfect temperature. After you shower, you go into the kitchen. Your favorite breakfast is already cooked and it´s on the table ready to eat. Now it is time to go to work. It´s rainy day. You live alone, but you find that your umbrella and hat are already by the door.

How is all this possible? Welcome to your future life!

APPLIANCE THAT TALK

B. Technology will allow homes in the future to be “smart.” Appliances will communicate with each other-and with you. Your stove, for instance, will tell you when your food is cooked and ready to eat. Refrigerators will suggest recipes based on food items you already have.

C. The technology is possible because of tiny information-storing devices called RFID chips. People already use them to keep track of pets and farm animals. Future RFID chips will store information about all the items in your cabinets. For example, they will record the date that you bought each item. Other devices will “read” this information using radio waves. When you need more food, your cabinets will tell you to buy it.

D. HOUSES THAT THINK

Are you tired of the color or pattern of your walls? In a smart home. You won´t have to repaint them. The walls will actually be digital screens, like computer or TV screens. The technology is called OLED, and it is here already. OLEDs are tiny devices that use electricity to light things. You can find the same technology in today´s thin TV screen. OLED walls will become clear like windows, or display colors and patterns, like walls.

E. A computer network will link these walls with everything else in your house. Called “ambient intelligence,” this computer “brain” will control your entire house. It will also adapt to your preferences. Your house will learn about your likes and dislikes. It will then use that knowledge to control the environment. For example, it will set the heat in the house to your favorite temperature. It will turn on the shower at the right temperature. It will darken the windows at night and lighten them when it is time to wake up.

Read each statement below. Then circle T for true and F for false, according to the reading.

(Lee cada una de las siguientes oraciones. Luego encierra T para las oraciones verdaderas y F para las falsas de acuerdo a la oración

 a. Someday, kitchen cabinets will tell you it’s time to buy more food.         T   F

b. RFID chips are already used today for keeping track of children.            T   F

c. People will change their wall patterns using RFID technology.                T   F

d. Darkening windows at night is an example of ambient intelligence.        T   F

GRAMMAR

The simple past is a verb tense that is used to talk about things that happened or existed before now.  (El pasado simple es un tiempo verbal que es usado para hablar acerca de eventos o cosas que ocurrieron o existieron antes)

For regular verbs, add -ed to the root form of the verb (or just -d if the root form already ends in an e):


Play→Played Type→Typed Listen→Listened Push→Pushed Love→Loved

 

For irregular verbs, things get more complicated. The simple past tense of some irregular verbs looks exactly like the root form:

 

Put→Put Cut→Cut Set→Set Cost→Cost Hit→Hit

 

For other irregular verbs, including the verb to be, the simple past forms are more erratic:

 

See→Saw Build→Built Go→Went Do→Did Rise→Rose Am/Is/Are→Was/Were


 


 ACTIVITIES

Write a paragraph in past tense using the verbs

                          CLEAN           LISTEN        DO         WATCH         HAVE


Read the text and choose the correct answer for each one question.
