    “will / shall＋动词原形”用来表示说话时认为或预测会在将来发生的动作或状态。还表示未经事先考虑的意图。书面语中当主语为第一人称I/we 时，常用“shall”。而口语中所有人称和数都可用“will”。在征求意见时will常用于第二人称, shall常用于第一人称。

    There won’t be pollution.

    注意：对疑问句的肯定回答用will 或shall 时，不能用缩写。

    2．与一般将来时连用的时间状语通常是一些表示将来时间的词或词组。如: 

    tomorrow （明天）

    before long （不久）

    the day after tomorrow （后天）

    next week （下周）

    soon （很快）

    in the future （将来）

    in three days （三天内）

    some day （将来的某一天）
