I am going to (= intend to) write a letter to my uncle tomorrow afternoon.
Это самый простой и распространенный способ выражения будущего, снимающий все трудности с shall и will. Но going to нельзя использовать для выражения простого будущего. Нельзя сказать:
I'm going to be 12 years old tomorrow.
или: Today is the 19th of October; tomorrow is going to be the 20th. ,
Going to используется лишь для выражения намерения или большей степени вероятности. Помним, что подразумевается под "большей степенью вероятности". Вот два примера:
I think it is going to rain. (That is, "I think it is very probable that it will rain.")
I'm afraid our new house is going to cost a lot of money.
¦ 206
MARGARET: I think my birthday party is going to be a very good one. (She thinks it is very probable that it will be a good party.) ANDREW: I think I am going to have a bad cold and then I shan't be able to go to the party.
В последнем предложении показана разница между "намерением" и "вероятностью". Эндрю не собирается простужаться. Напротив, он не хочет простудиться, но вероятность этого сильна.

Frieda Writes a Letter Home
"THE PINES,"
ST. GEORGE'S SQ.,
HAMPSTEAD,
LONDON, N.W.3.
I7TH DEC., 19-
DEAR MOTHER AND FATHER,
I feel very exited at the thought that in another week I shall be with you again on holiday. I have enjoyed my stay in England very much indeed. Mr. Priestley and my fellow-students Lucille, Jan, Pedro, Olaf and Hob are all very nice to me, but, as they say in England, "There's no place like home," and I think you feel this above all at Christmas time.
I am leaving here early on Thursday, the 23rd, and I shall arrive in Basle on Friday morning, so I shall be home somewhere about lunch time. Can you meet me at the station, as I shall have a lot of luggage?
In some of my earlier letters I have told you all about the other students here; well, I want to ask my Polish friend, Jan, to come and spend Christmas with us. Will that be all right? His father and mother died last year; he can't go home for Christmas, and he has no friends in England except the Priestleys. He is a very nice boy-I know you will like him, and I feel sure he will enjoy Christmas with us. It is very short notice, but you are always pleased, I know, if we bring our friends home. However, I have not yet invited him, as 1 thought it was better to ask you first. Please let me know as soon as possible if it will be all right.
