Future: Will, won’t and be going to: B2-intermediate: 


At a B2 intermediate level, will/won't and be going to are used to distinguish between spontaneous decisions (will), firm plans (going to), and predictions based on present evidence (going to). Will predicts future, while won't often shows a present refusal. Present continuous is preferred for fixed arrangements.


Key Differences at B2 Level:


* Will / Won't (Instant Decisions & Predictions):


    * Spontaneous/Instant Decisions: Used for decisions made at the moment of speaking. (e.g., "The phone is ringing, I'll answer it".)

    

    * Predictions (Belief/Opinion): Used for what you think will happen in the future, often with think, believe, hope. (e.g., "I think he'll win the election".)

    

    * Offers/Promises: (e.g., "I'll help you with that".)

    

    * Refusal (Won't): Indicates a current unwillingness, not just future. (e.g., "He won't listen to me".)

    

* Be Going To (Plans & Evidence):


    * Prior Plans/Intentions: Decisions made before the moment of speaking. (e.g., "I'm going to take a break".)


    * Predictions with Evidence: Something you see is about to happen. (e.g., "Look at those black clouds! It's going to rain".)

    

* Present Continuous (Fixed Arrangements):

    * Used for plans that are confirmed with others (time/place fixed). (e.g., "I'm meeting her at 5".) 


Comparison Example:


* Plan: "I am going to see the dentist tomorrow" (Arranged).

* Prediction: "I think it will rain later" (Opinion).

* Evidence: "Watch out! You**'re going to fall**" (Visible evidence). 


Future Continuous (Will be -ing):


At B2, you also use the future continuous to talk about actions that will be in progress at a specific time in the future. 


* Example: "This time tomorrow, I will be sitting on the beach".
