      Again. Follow the exercises as they are ordered because you have to successfully complete one exercise in order to get access to the following one. 

      1) You will start with exercise on the rules how to express future in English. In this exercise you will find different examples of sentences expressing future and either match these with definitions or you decide whether the example is correct. We worked with these during the Adobe Connect meeting on Thursday 26/03/2020. I am sorry but there is no recording because during the peek time (between 10 AM and 4 PM) they are not allowed due to the large number of users. However, you can have a look at the material from Future - First Certificate Language Practice, Vince - U3.

      2) After you complete this exercise you will get access to a pdf file where I sum up the rules with the examples from the previous exercise.

      3) Finally, there are 3 exercises taken from Future - First Certificate Language Practice, Vince - U3p.17/ex.1, p.18/ex.4 and p.18/ex.5.

    • There are various examples of future. Your task is to either match the example sentences with the kind of future they express or to decide whether the example sentence is correcct.

      If one answer appears more than once, follow the order of the numbers. Sometimes the colour will help.

      There is a time limit of 30 minutes so make sure you have enough time before starting the exercise.

      You have got two attempts.

    • Chose the correct answer or actually the best/most suitable future form in each sentence.

    • This is a multiple choice exercise. In the text you need to choose the best option A, B, C.

      There is a time limit of 10 minutes for 9 tasks.

    • Put each verb in brackets into a suitable verb form. All sentence refer to future time.

      This is a practice fo time clauses so please have a look again at the explanations either my pdf summary or the material from Language Practice for FCE itself.

      Do not use contracted forms (e.g. won't), use full forms only (e.g. will not) and as a future form use "will".
