Оглавление —> Глагол
Продолжаем заниматься оборотом “to be going to…”. Начинаем тренировки с простых, понятных упражнений, чтобы выполнять их без особых усилий. Обычно это утвердительные предложения на английском языке, которые надо поставить в отрицательные и вопросительные формы. Эти правила едины для всех временных форм, так что напрягаться особо не придется, абсолютно механическая работа, но очень важная. Единственная трудность — это незнакомые слова, но это очень даже хорошо, так как, тренируясь по заданной грамматике, можно одновременно и поднабраться новых слов.
Усложним немного задания, чтобы выйти на средний уровень. Теперь уже надо “подключать мозги”, то есть думать. Задание такое: в английских предложениях надо раскрыть скобки и поставить глагол в нужном времени; здесь уже ориентируемся по маячкам и по контексту. Само собой переводим и вникаем в смысл. Приведу пример:
Why are you turning on the television? — I … ( to watch ) the news.
Раскрываем скобки, определяем время и вот, что мы имеем:
Why are you watching on the television? — I am going to watch the news. = Почему ты включаешь телевизор. — Я буду ( собираюсь, намереваюсь) смотреть новости.
В конце упражнения я напишу правильные ответы, и вы сможете проверить свои знания. Если будут неясности, задавайте вопросы.
