　　语法小结：
　　一、一般将来时
　　1．用be doing表示将来：主要意义是表示按计划、安排即将发生的动作，常用于位置转移的动词。
　　 如：go, come, leave, arrive等，也可用于其他动作动词。
　　 we are having fish for dinner.
　　 　we are moving to a different hotel the day after tomorrow.
　　 　这种用法通常带有表示将来的时间状语，如果不带时间状语，则根据上下文可表示最近即将发生的动作。
　　 　a: where are you going?
　　 　b: i am going for a walk. are you coming with me?
　　 　a: yes, i am just coming. wait for me.
　　2．用be going to do表示将来：主要意义，一是表示＂意图＂，即打算在最近的将来或将来进行某事。
　　 are you going to post that letter?
　　 how long is he going to stay here?
　　 i am going to book a ticket.
　　 另一意义是表示＂预见＂，即现在已有迹象表明将要发生或即将发生某种情况。
　　 it’s going to rain.
　　 george is putting on weight, he is going to be quite fat.
　　3. 用will/ shall do表示将来：
　　 　主要意义，一是表示预见。
　　 you will feel better after taking this medicine.
　　 do you think it will rain?
　　 　二是表示意图.
　　 　i will not lend the book to you.
　　 　take it easy, i will not do it any longer.
　　 　基本结构：
　　 　she will come to have class tomorrow.
　　 will she come to have class tomorrow?
　　 　she won’t come to have class tomorrow.

　　 there was a knock at the door.
　　 有人敲门。
　　 there has been a girl waiting for you.
　　 有个女孩一直在等你。
　　 there will be rain soon.
　　 不久天就要下雨了。
　　2. 动词be单复数形式要跟there be之后的真正的主语一致。并且要根据就近一致原则来变换be的单复数形式。
　　 如：
　　 there　is　a　book　on　the　desk.
　　 课桌上有一本书。
　　 how　many　people　are　there　in　the　city?
　　 这个城市里有多少人口。

　　三、few, a few, little, a little, much, many
　　few和a few修饰或代替复数可数名词，few表示否定意义，a few表示肯定意义；little和a little修饰或代替不可数名词，little表示否定意义，a little表示肯定意义。
　　可数名词和不可数名词前都可用some, any, a lot of, lots of 等修饰。可数名词表示不确定数量时，用a few, few，many修饰。询问数量时用how many；不可数名词表示不确定数量时，用a little, little，much 修饰。询问数量时，用how much。

　　catv
　　catv is a short way saying ＂community antenna (公用天线) television＂. but ＂cable　television＂ is the name most people use. cable television allows viewers(观众) to receive tv programs that they can not pick up with their ordinary antenna.
　　television signals (信号) do not follow the curve(曲线) of the earth. they travel in straight lines in all directions. signals from a tv station move towards the horizon(水平线) and then go into space. if you live only a few miles from a tv station, you may get a good picture on your set. but if you live more than 50 miles from a station, you may not get any pictures at all.
　　catv began in 1948. people in places far from tv stations had to pay for putting up high antennas. a community antenna was usually placed on a hill, a mountain or on a high tower. the antenna picked up tv signals and fed them into a small local(当地的) station. from the station, thick wires called cable ran out to nearby homes. each person using the cable paid a monthly charge(费用).
　　catv worked well, and soon new uses were found for it. local stations could feed programs into empty channels that were not in use. people along the cable could have local news, weather report, and farm and school news at no extra charge.
　　today, cable television has moved into cities. it brings in extra programs that city viewers with ordinary antenna can not see. it is also used in many classrooms throughout the country.
