5. The post man has just knocked on the door. Are you going to open / will you open it?
6. I promise I’m not going to tell / won’t tell it to anyone!
Both "going to pass" and "he'll pass" are correct forms in this sentence. They both imply the future action of passing the exam. However, "going to pass" emphasizes the current intention or plan, while "he'll pass" simply suggests a future action without emphasizing the intention. So, both forms can be used depending on the context or personal preference.
2. Look at that boy hanging on that tree! He’s going to fall off / will fall off the tree.
In this case, "going to fall off" is the correct form. This form indicates that the boy is in the process of falling off the tree or is likely to fall off very soon. "Will fall off" suggests a future action without any indication of it being imminent or in progress.
3. ‘Why are you putting on your clothes?’ ‘Because I’m going to take / I will take the dog for a walk.
Both "going to take" and "I will take" are grammatically correct. However, "going to take" is the more appropriate choice in this context. It implies a planned future action, as the person is preparing by putting on clothes. "I will take" can also be used, but it is more commonly used when the decision is made spontaneously or on the spot.
4. I hope everything is going to be / will be all right.
Both "is going to be" and "will be" are correct in this sentence. However, "is going to be" is the better choice here. It implies a planned or expected future state, which aligns with the speaker's hope. "Will be" simply suggests a future state without emphasizing any planning or expectation.
5. The postman has just knocked on the door. Are you going to open / will you open it?
In this case, both "are you going to open" and "will you open" are correct. However, "are you going to open" is more commonly used in this context. It implies the speaker's expectation or intention that the listener will open the door in response to the knock. "Will you open" can also be used, but it is more neutral and does not emphasize any expectation or intention.
6. I promise I’m not going to tell / won’t tell it to anyone!
Both "not going to tell" and "won't tell" are correct in this sentence. They both imply the future action of not revealing something to anyone. However, "not going to tell" emphasizes the speaker's intention or decision not to disclose the information. "Won't tell" is more straightforward and simply suggests the future action without any emphasis on intention.
