🛠️ The 'Future Plan' Tool
In this story, the city is talking about things that will happen soon. To reach A2, you need to know how to talk about the future using will.
How it works:
Person/Thing + will + action Something happens later.
Examples from the text:
- The city will use robots. (They don't have them now, but they plan to use them).
- This work will finish in June. (It is not finished yet).
Simple Rule: Use will when you make a promise or a prediction about the future. It does not change, no matter who is doing the action (I will, They will, The city will).
📦 Size & Quantity Words
Notice how the text describes problems using simple adjectives. This is the best way to describe your world at an A2 level:
- Big (problems/pumps) Small (pipes)
- Too many (people) Use this when there is more than you want.
- Enough (water) Use this when the amount is just right.
