语法 语言升级点
be going to (plans)B1
表示已经计划好的将来，意图做某事
主语 + am/is/are going to + 动词原形
be going to 用来谈论你已经决定要做的事情。它强调计划，不一定有具体时间。和 will 的区别在于，will 更常用于在说话时才做的决定。
例句
I am going to take the bus tomorrow because my car is broken.
我打算明天坐巴士，因为我的车坏了。
Are you going to buy a return ticket?
你打算买往返票吗？
常见错误
✗ I going to take the bus. → ✓ I am going to take the bus.
缺少 be 动词（am）。
↑ 提分：再高一档可用 plan to / intend to 代替 be going to，使表达更多样。
present continuous for future arrangementsB1
表示已经安排好的将来事件（尤其有确定的时间和地点）
主语 + am/is/are + 动词-ing + (将来的时间状语)
当事情已经安排好，比如你买好了票、约好了人，就可以用现在进行时表示将来。一定要有时间状语，否则可能被误解为正在发生的事。
例句
I am meeting my friend at the station at 3 o'clock.
我3点要在车站见朋友。（已经约好）
We are leaving on the 6:15 train tomorrow morning.
我们明天早上坐6:15的火车走。（票已买）
常见错误
✗ I am meet my friend tomorrow. → ✓ I am meeting my friend tomorrow.
现在进行时要用 -ing 形式。
↑ 提分：再高一档可交替使用 be going to 和现在进行时，让将来时的表达更准确。

写作 Writing Task 1 (letter)（semi-formal） · 目标 150 词
You took a bus from the airport to the city centre, but your luggage was damaged during the trip. Write a letter to the bus company. In your letter: - describe what happened - explain the damage - say what you would like the company to do.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to complain about a problem with your bus service. Yesterday, I took the 3 p.m. bus from the airport to the city centre. The journey was bumpy because the roads were not good. I put my suitcase in the luggage area near the door. But when I reached the city centre, I saw that my suitcase was badly damaged.
The side of the suitcase has a large crack, and the handle is broken. Also, one wheel is missing. I cannot use it for my trip home. I had to buy a new one, and it cost me £50. I have the receipt from the shop.
I would like you to pay this money back to me. Please send a cheque for £50 to my address above. I also think you should fix the luggage area on your buses, so other passengers do not have the same problem.
I look forward to your reply. You can call me on 555-1234 if you need more information.
Yours faithfully,
Alex Lee
逐句标注
任务“I am writing to complain about a problem with your bus service.”开头直接说明写信目的，符合投诉信任务要求。
衔接“The journey was bumpy because the roads were not good.”用 because 连接结果和原因，逻辑清晰。
语法“I would like you to pay this money back to me.”正确使用 would like to 表达礼貌请求，句型简单准确。
词汇“fix the luggage area”运用本课相关词汇 luggage，搭配动词 fix 恰当。
🎯 本档语言特征：简单句+并列句为主，偶用 because/so；时态限制在过去时（叙述事件）和简单将来/请求（would like）；用词基础但能达意；完全覆盖三个要点，格式正确。约168词，满足任务要求。
↑ 再上一档：再高一档可增加连接词（however, therefore）使衔接更流畅；用更具体形容词（bumpy → extremely rough）提升词汇；使用间接疑问（I was wondering if you could...）会让语气更礼貌自然。
口语 Speaking
Part 1
Q: Do you often use public transport?
Yes, I do. I use the bus almost every day to go to work. It's cheap and convenient.
💡 先直接回答，然后说明频率和原因，用 cheap 和 convenient 这类简单形容词。
Q: What kind of transport do you use most?
I mostly use the bus because it stops near my home. Sometimes I take the train if I need to go far.
💡 用 because 给出理由，用 sometimes 表示偶尔的情况。
Q: Do you prefer buses or trains?
I prefer buses because they are cheaper and there are more stops. But trains are faster.
💡 简单比较，用 but 给出反面优点。
Part 2 · 提示卡
Describe a journey you took by public transport. You should say: - when it was - where you went - what kind of transport you used - and explain how you felt during the journey.
I want to talk about a bus trip I took last summer. I went from my city to a small town by the sea. I used a coach because it was direct. The journey took about two hours. I left at 9 in the morning and arrived before lunch. I felt quite relaxed because the seat was comfortable and I had a book. The only problem was that there was a lot of traffic so we arrived 30 minutes late. But I still enjoyed the trip. I could see the countryside and it was sunny. I think travelling by coach is a good way to relax.
💡 按卡片提示顺序说，多用过去时。用简单句和 and/but 连接，最后总结感受。说满1-2分钟即可。
Part 3
Q: Is public transport good in your city?
I think it is not bad. The buses come quite often, but in rush hour they are very crowded. The train is better because it is faster, but it costs more.
💡 给出平衡的观点，用 but 对比优缺点。
Q: Should the government make public transport free?
That is a difficult question. It could be good because more people would use it, and that would help the environment. But making it free would cost a lot of money, so I am not sure.
💡 用两面分析，could be good 和 but 表达不确定，符合 Part 3 要求。
高频短语
It is cheap and convenient. — 描述公共交通的优势
I mostly use the bus because... — 说明自己最常用的交通方式及原因
I felt quite relaxed because... — 表达旅行中的感受并给出理由
应试策略
4.5档的核心是「简单准确」。阅读听力部分重点抓数字、时间、名称；写作务必覆盖全部要点，句子写简单但确保没有大错；口语每个回答尝试给出2句，并加一个理由。
本档提分建议
想从4.5升到5.5，一定要多使用本节课学的be going to和现在进行时表将来。写信时多用would like to礼貌请求，口语里多用because, and, but把回答拉长。基础语法（三单、时态）不能犯错。
