Present simple in time clauses (Page 103)

Exercise 4.- Look at these extracts from the recording in Listening. Do all the verbs refer to the future? What tense do we use after time expressions like when? 

I’ll move back into my place when they finish repainting it on Friday. 

Next time I want things like that, I’ll buy them online instead.

What is a time clause?
Time clauses are preceded by adverbs or adverb phrases which show that they represent a time.

Examples of these adverbs or adverb phrases are: whenbeforeafteras soon asuntil.

A time clause shows that an event will happen at a certain time. Although they have a subject, verb and object, these clauses simply point to a time, similar to saying "at 7 o'clock".

We use the present tense to talk about future times.
The future tense is used in the main clause.
The present simple tense is used in the time clause.
When two clauses are joined by adverbs of time or adverb phrases, the future form should not be repeated.
  • Tom will turn off the lights when he leaves the office. 
  • Dad will reply to the letter when he comes home from work. 
  • will tidy the living-room before I go to bed. 
  • She will go running after it stops raining. 
  • will not go home until I finish the report. 
  • Jane will call her mother as soon as she arrives at the airport. 
Time clauses with reference to the future can also be introduced by other expressions such as:
once, immediately, the moment, the minute, the day, by the time ...
  • Tony will call the restaurant the moment he gets home.
  • I'll contact you once I receive an estimate.
  • You will be notified the minute your order arrives.
  • It will be dark by the time we arrive home.

The time clause may come before or after the main clause with no change in meaning. However, if the time clause begins a sentence, a comma is placed after it.
  • The moment I hear the doorbell, I will put on my coat.
  • will put on my coat the moment I hear the doorbell.
  • The day you graduate, your mother will be very happy.
  • Your mother will be very happy the day you graduate.

Do you know the difference between bored and boring? Test what you know with interactive exercises and read the explanation to help you.

Look at these examples to see how adjectives ending in -ed and -ing are used.

I was really bored in that presentation.
That was a really boring presentation.

Adjectives that end in -ed generally describe emotions – they tell us how people feel.

I was so bored in that lesson, I almost fell asleep.
He was surprised to see Helen after all those years.
She was really tired and went to bed early.

Adjectives that end in -ing generally describe the thing that causes the emotion – a boring lesson makes you feel bored.

Have you seen that film? It's really frightening.
I could listen to her for hours. She's so interesting.
I can't sleep! That noise is really annoying!
