pregnant.
- There used to be a park, but they
changed it into an industrial area.

crying all afternoon.

wenn sie in der ‚ing’-Form stehen!
2)
c) Past Simple & Past Progressive - Unterschiede
In einigen Fällen stehen beide Tenses im
selben Satz; Hierbei handelt es sich meist um den Kontrast zwischen kurzen Handlungen im Gegensatz zu längeren Handlungen.
Es gibt grundsätzlich folgende 3 Fälle:
- Mehrere vergangene und abgeschlossene
Handlungen folgen aufeinander; sie geschehen eine nach der anderen. Hierbei stehen alle Handlungen in der Past Simple.
- The burglar broke
the window. Then he got in
through it. He stole the jewellery
and jumped out again.
- Mehrere vergangene und abgeschlossene
Handlungen geschehen gleichzeitig
(Es handelt sich hierbei fast immer um länger andauernde Handlungen.) Die Past Progressive wird für alle
Handlungen verwendet.
- I was reading a book and Sammy was doing her
homework.
-He was just walking out of the store when I was
driving round the corner.
- Eine kurze
und plötzliche vergangene und abgeschlossene Handlung unterbricht eine (oder mehrere) länger andauernde vergangene und abgeschlossene Handlung(en). Die
kurze, unterbrechende Handlung steht in der Past Simple, die längere(n) Handlung(en) in der Past Progressive.
- Ina
was having a shower when the
doorbell rang.
-The
teacher was explaining the rules and
all students were listening
attentively, when suddenly a loud scream shocked

Bildung: to be + going to + base form
to be: I am we
are
you
are you
are
he
is they
are
she
is
it
is
Anmerkung: Umgangssprachlich
wird „going to” vor allem in den USA
öfters mit „gonna“ abgekürzt.
6) d) “going to”-Future Progressive
Die „going to“-Future Progressive kommt nur
recht selten vor. Mit ihr kann man länger andauernde Vorgänge, die bestimmt in
der Zukunft geschehen werden, beschreiben.
-Next week they are
going to be writing a 3-hour test.
-Telling from the clouds in the sky I’m sure it’s gonna be raining all night long.
Bildung: “to be” + going to be + “ing”-Form
to be: I am we
are
you
are you
are
he
is they
are
she
is
it
is
6) e)
Present Progressive als Future Tense
Die Present
Progressive kann Handlungen in der Zukunft beschreiben, die bereits fixiert, geplant
und ausgemacht (fixed, planned and arranged) sind. Es handelt sich also um
etwas, das ganz bestimmt eintreten wird. Wichtig ist, dass der Sprecher/ bzw.
der Handelnde selbst Einfluss auf das Geschehen hat.
-We are staying
at the Hilton. I’ve already called them and they will receive a room for us.
-They are performing in the big hall. They’ve already
arranged everything.
Bildung: to be + “ing”-Form
to be: I am we
are
you
are you
are
he
is they
are
she is
it
is
Anmerkung: Oft
kann die Present Progressive als Future Tense durch die „going to“-Future
ersetzt werden; es ergibt sich dann aber eine leichte Änderung des Sinnes, weil
die Present Progressive ausdrückt, dass etwas ganz sicher geschehen wird, die
going to aber nur „recht wahrscheinlich“ ist…
6) f)
Present Simple – die “Timetable” Future
Grundsätzlich kann im
Englischen – anders als im Deutschen – die Zukunft nicht durch die Gegenwart ausgedrückt werden!
Es ist jedoch möglich,
offizielle Zeitangaben mit Hilfe der Present Simple auszudrücken; dies lässt
sich dadurch erklären, dass diese Handlungen oder Vorgänge ja immer wieder
eintreffen! Es handelt sich also nicht wirklich um eine „reine“ Future Tense…
In jedem Fall darf die
Present Simple als Future Tense nur
verwendet werden, wenn die betroffene
Person keinen Einfluss auf die Handlung hat!
-The train leaves
at 5:34 . (It leaves whether
I’m in it or not…)
-They broadcast the news at 10pm .
Bildung: „base
form“
ACHTUNG! He, she, it, ‚s’ muss mit!!!, also nicht das ‘s’ am Ende des
Wortes vergessen!
to
be: I
am we
are
you
are you
are
he
is they
are
she
is
it
is
Anmerkung: Für offizielle Ankündigungen (also keine
reinen Zeitangaben) wird normalerweise die „will“-Future
verwendet.
6) g)
Future Perfect (Vorvergangenheit)
Die Future Perfect drückt
aus, dass etwas zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt in der Zukunft bereits geschehen
sein wird.

arrived at the station by 9 or 10 in the evening.
