Настоящие времена для будущего
Мы используем Present Continuous когда говорим о вещах которые уже запланированы и подготовлены.
He's picking me up at the airport.
I'm not working tomorrow, so we can go out somewhere.
Ian isn't playing football next Saturday. He's hurt his leg.
What are you doing on Friday evening?
Когда мы говорим о наших планах мы можем использовать либо Present Continuous, либо
Going to. Однако, когда мы используем Present Continuous, это предпологает
большую уверенность, что план подготовлен.
Сравните:
| What are you going to do at the next weekend? | What are you doing at the next weekend? |
| I'm going to see him. | I'm seeing him. |
| I'm going to do it. | I'm doing it. |
Мы используем Present Simple для выражения будущего когда говорим о событиях по расписанию.
My train leaves at 9 in the morning, so I need to be at the station by 8.45.
The shop opens at 9.00.
The sun rises a minute earlier tomorrow.
В этих примерах можно также использовать Present Continuous.
My train is leaving at 9 in the morning, so I need to be at the station by 8.45.
The shop is opening at 9.00.
The sun is rising a minute earlier tomorrow.
