📖 Read: Next Spring at Ichkeul أقرأ

Spring is my favourite season. The sky is clear and blue, and the air is fresh. The grass is green and there are flowers everywhere.

Next spring, my class will go on a trip to Ichkeul Park, near Bizerte. We will walk outside all day. I will take my camera and I will take photos of the birds on the lake.

My friend Rami will catch butterflies with a net, but he won’t keep them: he will let them go! My friend Lina will collect leaves and flowers for her science notebook.

At noon, we will have a picnic under a big tree. We won’t stay inside on a sunny day! After lunch, we will fly our kites.

Our teacher says: “Spring is the season of colours.” I think she is right!

— Adam, 11, Mateur

🧩 Grammar القواعد

The future with will. We use will + verb to talk about the future: We will go to the park next spring.

Will is the same for all persons: I will, you will, he will, she will, we will, they will. No -s on the verb: She will collect flowers.

Short form: ’ll: I’ll, we’ll, they’ll. Negative: will not = won’t: We won’t stay inside.

Question: Will + subject + verb? Will you come with us? — Yes, I will. / No, I won’t.

Future words: tomorrow, next week, next month, next spring, next year.

نستعمل will + الفعل في صيغته الأصلية للتعبير عن المستقبل، وهي نفسها مع كل الضمائر. النفي: will not أو won’t. السؤال: Will + الفاعل + الفعل؟ كلمات المستقبل: tomorrow ، next week ، next year.
