一、构成
由 “助动词will + 动词原形”构成，当主语是第一人称时，也可以用 “助动词shall +动词原形”。will在名词或代词后常缩写为'll，will not缩写为won’t；shall一般不缩写，shall not缩写为shan’t。
例如：He will help his sister with her lessons.他将帮助他妹妹做功课。
We shall/will not be free this afternoon.今天下午我们没空。
二、用法
1、一般将来时表示在将来的某个时候将要发生的动作或存在的状态，常与tomorrow,next year,in a minute等时间状语连用。
例如：I shall go to Beijing tomorrow. 明天我将去北京。
The concert will start in a minute. 音乐会马上就开始了。
2、用“be going to+动词原形”表示打算和预测。
例如：We are not going to stay there long. 我们不准备在那里久待。
I’m afraid they’re going to lose the game. 恐怕他们会输掉比赛。
Look at the dark clouds,it’s going to rain. 看那乌云，快要下雨了。
3、用“be about to+动词原形”表示即将要发生的事，这种结构通常不与具体的时间状语连用。
例如：Look! The race is about to start. 瞧，赛车就要开始了。
4、用现在进行时(即be动词＋现在分词)表示将来，这一结构常用于表示位置转移或行程安排的动词，如come ,go ,leave,fly,move,arrive,start等。
例如：I'm leaving for Tibet on Sunday. 星期天我要去西藏。
When are you going back to your factory? 你什么时候回工厂？
He is not coming. 他不来了。
They are arriving tomorrow afternoon. 他们明天下午到达。
5、用“be to+动词原形”仅用于表示正式的公务安排、公告指示、义务、命令、禁止等。
例如：He is to leave for Beijing to have a meeting tomorrow. （公务安排）
Tell him he’s not to be back late. 告诉他不准迟回。（禁止）
You are to (=should) report to the police. 你应该报警的。（义务）
You’re not to (=mustn’t) tell him anything about our plans. （禁止）
注意：be to强调客观安排或受人指示而做某事，be going to则强调主观的打算或计划。
6、用“be due to+动词原形”表示按计划或时间表将要发生某事，有时也用一般现在时。
例如：The strike is due to begin on Tuesday. 罢工预定于星期二开始。
The train leaves at six tomorrow morning. 火车明天上午六点开。
三、注意事项
1、there be句型的一般将来时是将will / be going to放在there be之间，即：There will/be going to be…
例如：There is going to be a meeting tomorrow afternoon.
There isn’t going to be a meeting tomorrow afternoon.
Is there going to be a meeting tomorrow afternoon?
2、在条件状语从句中用一般现在时表示将来，若你见到在条件句中用了will，那 will 就是表示“愿意”的情态动词。
例如：He'll help you if you ask him. 你提出请求,他就会帮助你。
Let her do that if she will. 如果她愿意，就让她那样做。
3、在“祈使句+and/or+陈述句”句型中，陈述句中只能用“will/情态动词+动词原形”。
例如：Work hard,and you will pass the exam. 努力学习，你就会通过考试。
Work hard,or you won’t pass the exam. 努力学习，否则你就不会通过考试。
4、表示临时的决定，只能用“will+动词原形”。
例如：---You’ve left the light on. 你忘记关灯了。---Oh! I’ll go and turn it off. 啊！那我去关。
5、will还可用来表示“不能”。
例如：Oil and water will not mix. 油和水没法混在一起。
