一般将来时典型考题:
【例1】If their marketing plans succeed, they _________ their sales by 20 percent.
A. will increase B. have been increasing
C. have increased D. would be increasing
分析:A。由于if条件从句用的是一般现在时，所以其相应的主句宜用一般将来时。
【例2】 Population experts predict that most people _________ in cities in the near future.
A. live B. would live
C. will live D. have lived
分析:C。根据句中的in the near future可知要用一般将来时。
【例3】When I talked with my grandma on the phone, she sounded weak, but by the time we ________ up, her voice had been full of life.
A. were hanging B. had hung
C. hung D. would hang
分析:C。从逻辑上说，当我在电话里和奶奶聊天时，她的声音听起来很虚弱;但到我们要挂电话时，她的声音又充满朝气。从逻辑上说，应该是“奶奶的声音又充满朝气”在先，“我们挂断电话”在后，如果是反过来的话，那说话者就无法听知道“奶奶的声音又充满朝气”之回事了。所以“挂断电话”应用一般过去时。另外，由于by the time后接的定语从句通常要用一般现在时代替一般将来时，用一般过去时代替过去将来时，所以选项D不能选。
一般现在时表将来:
按照英语习惯，一个句子中若主要动词已经表明了所谈论动作的时间，那么与之相关的其他动词就不必再次指明同一时间，而往往使用一个比较简单的时态，如用一般现在时表示一般将来时等。比较。如:
This discovery means that we will spend less on food.这一发现意味着我们将减少在食品上的花费。
This discovery will mean that we spend less on food. 这一发现意味着我们将减少在食品上的花费。
