We do not use will to say what somebody has already arranged or decided to do:
Diane is working next week. (not Diane will work)
Are you going to watch anything on TV this evening? (not Will you watch)
For 'is working' and 'Are you going to ... ?', see Units 19-20.
But often, when we talk about the future, we are not talking about what somebody has decided to do
For example
Kate is doing an exam next week. Chris and
Joe are talking about it.
(Yes, she'll pass easily
Do you think
Kate will pass
the exam?
She'll pass does not mean she has
decided to pass' Joe is saying what
he knows or believes will happen
He is predicting the future,
When we predict a future happening
or situation, we use will/won't
CHRIS
Some more examples:
They've been away a long time. When they return, they'll find a lot of changes here:
"Where will you be this time next year?' 'll be in Japan
That plate is hot. If you touch it, you'll burn yourself
Tom won't pass the exam. He hasn't studied hard enough
Anna looks completely different now. You won't recognise her
When will you get your exam results
We often use will (ul) with
probably
I'm sure
(1) think
I don't think
I wonder
I'll probably be home later tonight
Dont worry about the exam I'm sure you'll pass
Do you think Sarah will like the present we bought her
I don't think the exam will be very difficult
I wonder what will happen
Alter I hope we generally use the present will also poss
Thope Kate passes the exam corl hope Kate will pass
I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow
