Để nói về tương lai, những dự định, kế hoạch trong tiếng Anh thì chúng ta cần đến thì Tương Lai đơn và Tương lai gần. Bài học hôm nay, Hệ thống Anh ngữ RES sẽ giới thiệu đến bạn hai thì phổ biến trong luyện thi IELTS cùng với công thức và cách sử dụng trong nhiều ngữ cảnh khác nhau.
I. CÔNG THỨC THÌ TƯƠNG LAI
II. CÁCH DÙNG THÌ TƯƠNG LAI TRONG IELTS
– Mô tả dự định của người nói trong Speaking part 1 hoặc part 3 (thường đứng cuối bài nói để nói về nói về những dự định sẽ làm trong tương lai)
Ví dụ:
- Wow, honestly, I think I will have to learn another language such as Japanese or Chinese so that I can have more advantages when applying for jobs. (Speaking part 1)
– Mô tả về dự đoán/ ước muốn/ hy vọng của người nói trong Speaking part 2 hoặc part 3.
- I hope that in the future I will become such a well-dressed person like her. (Speaking part 2 – Describe a well-dressed person that you know)
- I personally hope that carpooling will be a dominant trend in the near future so that we can reduce dangerous gas emission into the atmosphere. (Speaking part 3 – Trong ví dụ này, người nói chỉ đưa ra dự đoán của mình về xu hướng “đi chung xe” – “carpool” trong tương lai nên người nói đã cho thêm từ “personally” để nhấn mạnh rằng đây chỉ là ý kiến cá nhân)
Trong IELTS Writing Task 2, nếu dùng “will” thì chúng ta nên dùng “will be likely to Verb” hoặc “It is likely that + mệnh đề sử dụng ‘will’” để giảm bớt độ khẳng định chắc chắn.
III. MỘT SỐ CẤU TRÚC KHÁC MANG Ý NGHĨA TƯƠNG LAI
Ta có thể sử dụng một số cấu trúc ngữ pháp khác có chức năng tương tự thì tương lai đơn, diễn đạt hành động, sự việc có khả năng xảy ra trong tương lai như:
(to be) likely to + V (có khả năng/ có thể) | I believe that technological innovations such as robots are likely to do most of human’s work in the future. |
(to be) expected to + V(được kỳ vọng) | Artificial intelligence is expected to replace human in most manual work in the near future. |
IV. SỰ KHÁC NHAU GIỮA HAI THÌ
Sự khác biệt giữa thì tương lai đơn và cấu trúc ‘be going to + V’
Điểm khác biệt lớn nhất giữa thì tương lai đơn và cấu trúc ‘be going to + V’ nằm ở khả năng xảy ra của phán đoán, dự đoán của người nói. Vì vậy:
- Sử dụng mẫu ‘be going to + V’ nếu có bằng chứng chứng minh cho phán đoán của mình.
- Sử dụng thì tương lai đơn hoặc các cấu trúc thay thế nếu phán đoán của mình chỉ dựa trên cảm nhận chứ không có bằng chứng hoặc căn cứ rõ ràng.
V. PRACTICE

The line graph illustrates the financial position of a New Zealand local authority from 2012 to 2022. It is measured in millions of New Zealand dollars. Overall, it can be seen that while rates revenue and user charges are predicted to increase over the period, borrowings and grants and subsidies (1-remain)…………. much lower.
Rates revenues and user charges (2-follow)………………a very similar pattern over the time frame. Rates revenue stood at just under 1.5 billion in 2012, which was the highest of the four criteria. Though they remained stable until 2013, they are expected to climb to approximately 2.4 billion dollars in 2022. Like rates revenues, use charges are predicted to continuously increase. They began the period at 1 billion and (3- stand)……………..at twice this level by 2022.
Borrowings, on the other hand, are expected to show considerable fluctuation. Although having initially increased, they (4-drop)………………..to a low of 600 million in 2016, before reaching a peak of just under 1.5 billion in 2020. Borrowings (5- finish)……………….the period at around the same level that they began. Grant and subsidies were the lowest of the four, at under 500 million in 2012. Despite moving up to exceed borrowing briefly in 2016, this low level will continue until 2022.
