我们通常用I will来表示我们在说话的时候出现念头想去做的事情: -Oh, I've left the door open. I'll go and shut it. -What would you like to drink? I'll have an orange juice, please. - Did you phone Ruth? Oh, no, I forgot. I'll phone her now. 刚才的这些句子不可以用一般现在时表达。 比如: I'll go and shut the door. ——不可以说 I go and shut... 我们通常这样表达: I think I'll 和 I don't think I'll. - I feel a bit hungry. I think I'll have something to eat. - I don't think I'll go out tonight. I'm too tired. 在口语里will的否定形式是 won't(will not): I can see you're busy,so I won't stay long.
我们在上两个units有提到过,当谈论已经决定并安排好要做的事情的时候不可以用will: -I'm going on holiday next Saturday. -Are you working tomorrow? 已经安排好要做的事情我们用be going to来表达。 在下面这些场景里,我们通常会使用will: 1.提供帮助或服务: That bag looks heavy. I'll help you with it. 2.同意去做某事: A:You know that book I lent you. Can I have it back if you've finished it with it? B: Of course, I'll give it to you this afternoon. 3.承诺去做某事: -Thanks for lending me the money. I'll pay you back on Friday. -I won't tell anyone what happened. I promise. 4.请求某人做某事(Will you): -Will you please be quiet? I'm trying to concentrate. -Will you shut the door, please? 另外,我们可以用 won't 表达某人拒绝做某事: -I've tried to advise her but she won't listen. - The car won't start. I wonder what's wrong with it.
Shall I …Shall we…? shall这个词大多数时候用于引导第一人称的问句:Shall I…?/shall we…?表示我们提供建议时询问对方的意见: -Shall I open the window? -I've got no money. What shall I do? -Shall we go? Just a minute. I'm not ready yet. -Where shall we go this evening? 最后我们来比较一下 Shall I …?和will you…? -Shall I shut the door?表示我在询问你希望我关门吗? - Will you shut the door?这里表示我希望你关门。
