Mrs Adams is putting some luggage in their car boot. They are going to the seaside for their holidays.
Father – Well, Sheila, what are you going to do these days?
Tom – I'm going to dive every day. I've got my snorkel, my waterproof camera, my goggles and my flippers. And I'm going water-skiing, too.
Father – I'm speaking to Sheila, Tom. What are you going to do, Sheila?
Sheila – I'm not going to dive. I'm going to build sandcastles and I'm also going to pick up shells and pebbles. In the afternoons I'm going to paint them and sell them. Then I will have money to buy ice-creams. What are you going to do, Mum?
Mother – I'm going to sunbathe. I'm going to sit on a deckchair and read. I'm also going to walk dry-shod among seaweed covered rocks. And I'm going to take some pictures, too. But, I think I've forgotten to take film rolls.
Tom – I also need film rolls. I want to take pictures of crabs.
Father – Don't worry. Sheila is going to pay for new film rolls with all the money she is going to earn by selling shells and pebbles. Are you going to earn enough money, Sheila?
Sheila – Of course.

| Uses | There are three basic uses of the 'going to' - future. We use it:
• to talk about planned actions where the decision has been made before speaking.
• to express intentions. We often use 'going to' rather than 'will' in informal style.
• to make a prediction where there is some evidence now. |
