Future continuous-将来进行时

We can use the future continuous (will/won’t be + -ing form) to talk about future actions that: 我们可以使用将来进行时（will/wont be + -ing 形式）来谈论未来的行动：

• will be in progress at a specific time in the future:将在未来的特定时间进行：

We use the future perfect simple (will/won’t have + past participle) to talk about something that will be completed before a specific time in the future.我们使用一般将来完成时（will/wont have + 过去分词）来谈论将来某个特定时间之前将完成的事情。

*Will you have gone to bed when I get back?*当我回来的时候你会去睡觉吗？

We can use phrases like by or by the time (meaning ‘at some point before’) and in or in a day’s time / in two months’ time / in five years’ time etc. (meaning ‘at the end of this period’) to give the time period in which the action will be completed.我们可以使用诸如 by 或 by the time（意思是“在之前的某个时间点”）和 in or in a day’s time/in两个月的时间/in 五年的时间等短语（意思是“在这段时间结束时” ) 给出完成操作的时间段。
