二、阅读理解
Let us suppose it is now about AD 2070. Let’s make believe it is about sixty years from now. Of course, things have changed, and life is very different. Voyages（航行） to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 2007 to take a holiday in Europe. As there are a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are air-conditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery（风景） on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment（娱乐）of the young and old.
What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet’s surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated （灌溉）with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.
Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.
People are now largely vegetarians（素食者）. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier in both our bodies and our minds, and we know the causes and the cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more. Such might be our life in 2070. 1. When was the passage written?
A. In about 2070. B. In about 1970. C. In about 2000. D. In about 2010.
2. According to the passage, what will be on the moon in about AD 2070? A. Many tourists. B. Many other animals. C. Many plants. D. A sea.
3. What will people eat then according to the passage? A. Biscuits in pill form. B. Foods in pill form. C. Foods in water form. D. Foods in gas form.
4. The passage tells us that in 2070, on the earth than now. A. there are fewer people B. there are more pests

I: Good afternoon everybody and on the programme this afternoon is an expert on American domestic architecture, Mr. Simon Oppenheim who’s going to talk to us about the house of the future. So where shall we be living in twenty years’ time?

Period 3 Grammar 将来进行时
Teaching Aims: make the students to learn to sum up grammatical rules and master the grammatical items.
Teaching Important Points: encourage students to sum up grammatical rules.
Teaching Different Points: To make the students know more about the future continuous. Teaching Methods: Individual and pair work. 将来进行时
一、将来进行时的基本构成
基本句式将来进行时由“动词be的将来时+现在分词”构成，具体形式见下表： 人称 第一人称 第二人称 第三人称 单数 I shall/will be leaving. You will be leaving. He/She/It will be leaving. 复数 We shall/will be leaving. You will be leaving. They will be leaving. 例如： This time next day they will be sitting in the cinema. 明天的这个时间，他们正坐在电影院。 （将来的某时正在进行的动作）
What will you be doing at six tomorrow evening? 明天晚上六点你将在干什么？ He won’t be coming to the party. 他将不去参加聚会了。
I’ll be meeting him tomorrow/next year/some time. 我明天/下一年/某个时间将去见他。 常用的时间状语 Soon, tomorrow, this evening，on Sunday, by this time，in two days, tomorrow evening
By this time tomorrow, I'll be lying on the beach. 明天的这个时间，我将会躺在海滩上了。 二、 基本用法
（1）表示将来某一时间正在进行的动作，一般带状语。如：
What will you be doing at this time next Monday? 星期一的这个时间你会干什么？ When he comes to my house tomorrow, I will be writing the report. 明天他来我家时，我将会在写报告。
(2)表示现在正在进行的动作，但这个动作会延续到将来。如： I think that she will be working on this experiment until next morning. (3)表示预定的将来动作或对将来的预测。如： Tomorrow I will be flying to Beijing.
After you take the medicine, you will be feeling much better. (4)表示委婉的请求或礼貌
When will you be coming again? 你什么时候再来？ 三、将来进行时与一般将来时和现在进行时的区别 A．与一般将来时的区别 1．两者基本用法不一样
如将来进行时表示将来某时正在进行的动作，一般将来时表示将来某时将要发生的动

作。如：
What will you be doing this time tomorrow? 明天这个时候你会在做什么呢？ What will you do tomorrow? 你明天干什么？
2. 两者均可表示将来，但用将来进行时语气更委婉，比较：
When will you finish these letters? 你什么什候处理完这些信件？(直接询问，如上司对下属) When will you be seeing Mr White? 你什么时候见怀特先生？(委婉地询问，如下属对上司) When will you pay back the money? 你什么时候还钱？(似乎在直接讨债)
When will you be paying back the money? 这钱你什么时候还呢？(委婉地商量)
3. 有时一般将来中的will含有―愿意‖的意思，而用将来进行时则只是单纯地谈未来情况。如：
Mary won’t pay this bill. 玛丽不肯付这笔钱。(表意愿)
Mary won’t be paying this bill. 不会由玛丽来付钱。(单纯谈未来情况)
B.与现在进行时态的区别
现在进行时表示一种经过考虑的,将来要进行的动作,而将来进行时通常表示正常过程中会发生的动作,因此将来进行时不如现在进行时那样肯定,比后者偶然性要大一些: I am seeing Tom tomorrow. 明天我要和汤姆见面. I'll be seeing Tom tomorrow. 明天我会见到汤姆.
第一句意指汤姆或说话人已经特意安排了这次会面,而第二句则意指汤姆和说话人将在通常进程中见面(也许他们在一起工作).不过这种差别并不是在任何情况下都很重要,而且常常两者都可以使用.现在进行时用于表示最近将来的动作时,必须有确定的时间,而将来进行时可以和确定的时间状语连用,也可以不连用.它既可以表示最近将来的动作,也可以表示较远将来的动作.可以说: I am meeting him tomorrow. 我明天和他会面. 精心训练
