★ 重点语法
本单元语法重点：be going to 结构。
be going to 结构是一般将来时的一种。表示按计划、安排将要发生的事，或经主观推测将要或肯定要发生的动作。此结构通常译为“打算、计划、将要”等。
一、陈述句
◆肯定句：主语+ be (am / is / are) + going to + 动词原形 + 其他。如：
He is going to be a doctor in the future. I’m going to study math really hard.
◆否定句要在 be 的后面加 not。如例：
I am not going to practice singing lessons after school.
二、一般疑问句
Be (am / is / are) + 主语 + going to + 动词原 形 + 其他？
肯定回答：Yes, 主语 + am / is / are.
否定回答：No, 主语 + am / is / are not. 如：
— Are you going to work all night?
— Yes, I am. / No, I am not.
— Is she going to visit her grandfather tomorrow?
— Yes, she is. / No, she isn’t.
三、特殊疑问句
特殊疑问词 + be (am / is / are) + 主语 + going to + 动词原形 + 其他？如：
When is he going to have his hair cut? What are you going to do this evening?
◆常用的时间状语有：this evening, tomorrow, next week, soon 等表示将来的词或短语。
注意：如表示“打算去某个地方”时，to 后面常跟表 示地点的名词。如：
I am going to Beijing for Vacation.
