A tornado is about to strike this family’s farm. They are all frightened. It is moving quickly towards them, but they have already noticed that it is coming. The mother has taken the baby; the father has called the children. The boys are carrying some of the animals: a cat and three puppies. The family is rushing to the storm cellar, where they will be safe under the ground.
©3. Read the second part of the text and find out what will be happening when tornado comes.Part II
When the tornado hits, they will be sitting in the storm cellar. They will not be moving around; they’ll be hiding in the safest part of the cellar. The mother will still be holding the baby, but the animals will probably be running around, making noise. Each person will be listening to the sounds of the storm. They will hear chickens squaking and they will hear the wind blowing. They will all be thinking about the farm and asking themselves questions about it. “What will farm look like when we come out of the storm cellar?” “Will the house still be standing?” “Will the barn still 26
bo standing?” “Will all the animals be alive?” “Will it be raining very hard?” “Will the family survive?”
Answer these questions What do you think of the family?
II. Grammar: The Future Continuous Tense.
The Future Continuous is used:
to express an action which will be in progress at a certain time in the future.
Example: At this time tomorrow, we will be working in the garden.
Read and Remember!
Verbs of Mental Activity or Mental State, which do not take the Continuous Tenses: believe, hate, hear, know, like, love, need, own, see, have (meaning to own); some exceptions are idioms with have. These idioms are used in the Continuous Tenses: to have fun, to have a party, to have a good lime, lo have a bad time, to have trouble: We shall be having a good time tomorrow at the party.
Remember!
As you have learned, some verbs cannot be used in the Continuous Tenses. When you are speaking or writing about future time, such verbs take the Simple Future Tense. Verbs of Mental Activity or Mental State do not take Continuous Tenses: believe, hate, hear, know, like, need, own, see.
