3 Future tenses: will or going to? Before we saw people using will and going to for their intentions in the future. So when do they use will and when do they use going to? Look back at the four correct sentences and see if you can decide. Think about time. BENJAMIN C. PIM

4 We use will when we decide to do something at the time of speaking. We use going to when we have already decided before we speak. BENJAMIN C. PIM

8 Read what Julian is saying. Which room is he describing A,B or C? BENJAMIN C. PIM

9 Now read what Val is saying. Which is her kitchen A,B or C? BENJAMIN C. PIM

10 Look at this situation. Is James talking to Tracey or Dorothy? BENJAMIN C. PIM

11 Present continuous future use Did you choose Tracey or Dorothy? In fact, both are possible. The man could say: I m going to Paris now. to Tracey. or I m going to Paris tomorrow. to Dorothy. BENJAMIN C. PIM

12 The present continuous works in the present and in the future. BENJAMIN C. PIM

13 Now look at this picture. Is she talking about every day or tonight. What do you think? BENJAMIN C. PIM

14 Present simple future use Once again, both are possible. She could say: The Liverpool train leaves at seven o clock every evening. or The Liverpool train leaves at seven o clock tonight. BENJAMIN C. PIM

15 The present simple also works in the present and in the future. BENJAMIN C. PIM

16 Present continuous future use We can use the present continuous for the future when we are talking about an arrangement. This could be an arrangement with somebody else.

17 For example: I m going to the cinema with Darren tonight. Or just with ourselves Really? I m staying in and watching TV.

18 The important thing is that something happened before now. Sometimes there is very little difference between the present continuous (arrangement) and going to (intention from before now).

20 Present simple future use We can use the present simple for the future when we are talking about facts, e.g. timetables and fixed times.

21 The train leaves at six o clock. Manchester United play Liverpool on Saturday. The course ends next week. The film starts at eight o clock.

22 Of course, somebody arranged all these things, but it isn t necessary to say so. They are not intentions either. They are simple facts, so we use the present simple.

32 York Many important events have happened in York s long history. In 71 AD, the Romans built a camp at the place where the rivers Ouse and Fosse meet. They called this Eboracum. A town slowly grew beside it and in time this became one of the leading cities of the Roman Empire.

33 In the seventh century the Saxons settled within the walls of the Roman fort. They also built a little wooden church. There has been a church on this site ever since. The present one, which dates from the thirteenth century, is the great cathedral of York Minster.

34 In 867 York was captured by Danish invaders and the town grew into an important port and centre for trade. Danish rule continued until 944, when King Edmund defeated them. In later years the city became part of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of England.

35 In 1066 England was invaded by Normans under William the Conqueror. When William came to York he built two wooden castles on earth mounds, one each side of the River Ouse. The one on the east bank was destroyed in The stone building which stands there today, Clifford s tower, was built as a replacement in the thirteenth century.

36 By the Middle Ages, York was one of the main religious centres of England. Besides the cathedral there were more than 40 churches, and some of these have survived up to the present day. The city continued to be important as a port and trading centre. England s chief export at the time was wool, and much of it left the country from York.

37 In 1533 King Henry VIII took England out of the Roman Catholic Church. Because so much of York s economy was in the hands of the churches, the city suffered greatly. Its decline continued until the eighteenth century, when it began to be a fashionable place to live and visit. Many wealthy people from all over the north of England built town houses in the city.

38 In the nineteenth century York became an important railway centre, and this has continued ever since. Also, two families who sold chocolate from shops, Rowntree s and Terry s, built factories. These have grown into York s leading industry. Since, then some new industries have arrived, but York is still a city where visitors can walk along ancient streets and experience its long and fascinating history.

45 Past simple We use the past simple for events in the past where: We say the time of the event. We know the time of the event. The time of the event is important.

46 Present perfect We use the present perfect for events in the past: When the event started in the past and is still happening now. When the time of the event isn t important.

47 Although these events happened in the past, or began in the past, the important time is now. That s why we call it the present perfect tense.
