有些動(dòng)詞從結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)看是現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)，但卻是表示將要發(fā)生的事，而不表示動(dòng)作現(xiàn)在正在進(jìn)行。這些動(dòng)詞往往是一些表示位置移動(dòng)變化的動(dòng)詞，
如：go,some,leave,fly,move,begin,arrive,stay,return等。
Next month my family is moving to Beijing.
下個(gè)月，我家就要搬到北京去了。（搬的動(dòng)作并非現(xiàn)在發(fā)生，而將在下個(gè)月發(fā)生。）
My aunt is leaving for Shanghai at eleven o'clock tomorrow morning.
明天早上十一點(diǎn)我嬸嬸將離開去上海。

在實(shí)際運(yùn)用時(shí)，現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)常用以下幾種情況：
（1）當(dāng)句子中有now,at the resent,at the moment(現(xiàn)在)時(shí),常表示動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行，或者告訴你一個(gè)準(zhǔn)確的現(xiàn)在時(shí)間，這時(shí)要用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。如：
They are playing basketball now.現(xiàn)在他們正在打籃球。
（2）以look,listen等暗示性詞語(yǔ)開頭的句子，提示我們動(dòng)作正進(jìn)行，這是要用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。如：
Listen！She is singing an English song.聽，她正在唱英語(yǔ)歌。
（3）當(dāng)局中出現(xiàn)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)是today,these days,this week,this month等時(shí)，如果句子所要表達(dá)的意義是在這一階段正在翻身的事，則動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。如：
We are making model planes these day.這些天我們?cè)谧鲲w機(jī)模型。
（4）描述圖片中的人物的動(dòng)作，也為了表達(dá)更生動(dòng)。此時(shí)也常用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)，如：
Look at the picture.The children are flying kites in the park.
看這幅圖，那些孩子正在公園放風(fēng)箏。
（5）在口語(yǔ)中表示主語(yǔ)計(jì)劃將要作的動(dòng)作。
They are leaving for New York tomorrow.明天他們將要?jiǎng)由砬巴~約。
Is your brohter departing soon? 你的兄弟很快就要啟程嗎？
這類情況常與come來(lái)，go去，leave離開，depart離開，arrive到達(dá)，stay逗留，start開始等動(dòng)詞連用。所用的動(dòng)詞必須是動(dòng)作而不是狀態(tài)，主語(yǔ)必須是人。
