⚡ Quick Win: Talking about the Future

In this story, we see one very useful way to say what will happen later.

The Magic Word: WILL When we are sure about a future event, we use will + action.

  • Logan Henderson will pitch...
  • Both teams will use...

How to use it yourself: It is like a bridge from now → later.

💡 Word Power: Action vs. Result

Look at how the text describes the game. We use different words for the process and the end:

  • Playing (The action happening now) \rightarrow "The Brewers are playing very well."
  • Won (The finished result) \rightarrow "The Brewers won seven... games."

Remember:

  • Use -ing for things in motion.
  • Use -ed (or special words like won) for things that are finished.
