Lesson 60 The future
Part 1: Text
At a village fair, I decided to visit a fortune-teller called Madam Bellinsky. I went into her tent and she told me to sit down. After I had given her some money, she looked into a crystal ball and said: 'A relation of yours is coming to see you. She will be arriving this evening and intends to stay for a few days. The moment you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise. A woman you know well will rush towards you. She will speak to you and then she will lead you away from this place. That is all.' As soon as I went outside, I forgot all about Madam Bellinsky because my wife hurried towards me. 'Where have you been hiding ' she asked impatiently. 'Your sister will be here in less than an hour and we must be at the station to meet her. We are late already.' As she walked away, I followed her out of the fair.

Part 4: Grammar&Difficult points
1. 由名词+名词构成的复合名词
为了使表达更简练，英语中通常用名词修饰名词的结构来代替介词短语修饰名词的结构
第一个名词通常起形容词（或修饰语）的作用，而且一般都用单数。
1）这类复合名词可以代替of结构，如a car key， a chair leg；也可以理解为第一个名词指地点，第二个词指该地点中的东西，如：
a village pub，a world record，a kitchen sink；
2）可以表示时间，如a Christmas card，an evening dress，afternoon tea；
3）也可以表示分类，如a horror film，a flower shop，a taxi-driver；
4）也可以表示材料，如a fur coat，a gold watch，cigarette ends。
2.表示将要发生的事情
1) be going to + 动词原形
eg. I am going to travel by air.
2) will + 动词原形
eg. You will enjoy yourself if you travel by sea.
3) be + v.ing
表示为将来安排好的活动和事件。 He is arriving tomorrow.
4) be about to do sth.表示即将发生的行为，动作。
eg. He was about to leave when the telephone rang.
5) plan to/ intend to 可换用，但前者常用于进行时；而intend 只用于简单时态。
eg. Do you still intend to go 你还打算走吗？
eg. We were planning to go last year but we hadn’t enough money.
我们去年打算走的，但却没有足够的钱。
6) be due to do sth.表示早已安排好的事，即“定于”
eg. The train is due to arrive at 6:00 o’clock. 火车定于6点钟到达。

在英语中，现在进行时也可用来表示为将来安排好的活动和事件。这种用法通常需要一个表示时间的状语（往往是不久的将来）。
come, go, stay, arrive, leave等趋向动词的现在进行时经常用于表示将来确切的计划：
I am leaving China in two hours.
He’s arriving this evening.
表示交通方式、行程安排的动词，例如 fly, walk, ride, drive, take (a bus, a taxi)等的现在进行时也经常用于表示将来。
I am flying to Japan tomorrow.
