Agenda Homework review

Future time clauses [When I have my degree], I’ll get a job with a big company. She’s going to go on a trip [as soon as she graduates]. Are the underlined parts of the sentences clauses? Which part of the sentence tells us about the time (not future tense)? Future time clauses show the relationship between two events. Ex. She will reserve the hotel [after she buys the plane ticket]. After she buys the plane ticket, she will reserve the hotel. What is the difference between the two sentences? Is the verb in the time clause in the present or the future? Will and be going to are used in the main clauses and not in the future time clauses.

Future Time clauses Past Now Future _________I______X__________X________> Have degree get a job [When I have my degree], I’ll get a job with a big company. Future time expressions show order of events. When, as soon, as after show the first event.

Future time clauses Be careful! Don’t use be going to or will in a future time clause. You can’t have two future tenses in a sentence. I will go to Starbucks after I am going to eat. X

When, as soon as and after introduce the 1 st event. When class finishes, Luisa is going to sit down. 12 I’ll take off my shoes as soon as the students leave. 21 After I get home, I’ll go to sleep. 12

While introduces an event that will happen at the same time as another event. You can use either the simple present or the present progressive with an action verb after while.

While I am looking for a job, I’ll go on studying. look for a job= go on studyingsame time _________________I___________________________________> Pastnowfuture
