CHAPTER 1 . INTRODUCING

1.1 Theoretical Background

English is such an importan language that we must concern on it. As an
international language, english is use all around the world, so if we able in
english, we can speak with anyone from many country
In english, we must pay attention on grammatical language, like tenses. It can
be easy to our listener to understand the conversation if we use the right
grammrr or tenses. One of the tenses is future tense. Future tense use to talk
something with future meaning, like an expectation , plans etc

1.2 benefit of writing

students can understand and apply the future tense

Chapter 2. Data Analyzing

2.1 Present tense with future meaning

o

Timetables : we use present simple to talk about events which we

expect to happen, because they are part of a timetable (e.g. a flight
timetable, a train timetable, a school or college timetable or calendar, a
cinema programme, a TV schedule, a shop timetable):

Their train leaves at 6 pm !

Hurry up harry, collage assembly is in five minutes

Today is the last day of the journey, Valarie goes back home
tomorrow

What time does the class finish?

The Glees tv series ends next week

Oh God, the library is shut and they dont open tomorrow

Plans

we use the present continuous to talk abaout people

(or organizations) and

their plans:

Were going to the swimming pool tomorrow

Alex is moving into her new flat next week

The computers programmer is coming on Tuesday

This actrees is filming his live journey

Helen isnt going to the cinema nect saturday

What are you doing on Friday ? (=what are your plans for
friday?)

We dont use be in the present continuous, to talk about a plan; we

often use the present simple:

Maura is driving to her village on tuesday shes there till

Thursday.

When for the future

we can use when to talk about a time in the

future; we usually use the present simple after when:

o

Will you still be here, when I get home?

When I finish the english class, Ill pick you up.

When I get cough, Ill eat some medicine.

We can also use the present perfect with when to talk

about something that will happen first before something else
will happen:

ill send my mother a letter when Ive finished my

homework.

wait)
d. We often use will with a when or if clause; we dont use will in the
when or if clause
