Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds
Use the Future Simple Passive to focus on what will happen to an object, rather than who is doing the action.
- Use 'will be' + the past participle (V3) of the main verb for all subjects.
- To make it negative, use 'will not be' or the contraction 'won't be'.
- For questions, swap the subject and 'will': 'Will the work be finished?'
Overview
Future Simple Passive（一般将来时被动语态）大显身手的时候了。它是妥妥的“主角”语法——把聚光灯打在动作或对象上，让实际的执行者像个害羞的电影龙套一样退到背景里。无论你是在亚马逊上查看物流更新，还是收到心仪剧集续订的通知，你每天都在和这条规则打交道。the phone will be released（手机将于周五发布）。这就是 Future Simple Passive 的核心。我们用它来谈论未来的事件，而执行动作的人要么不详，要么显而易见，或者干脆无关紧要。在我们这个快节奏的数字时代，这种语法无处不在。从 Uber 的提示“您的车辆将在 5 分钟内到达”，到 Instagram 的服务条款规定“如果您违反规则，您的帐户将被停用”，它是系统、公告和官方事务的语言。它干净、高效，有时还带点神秘感。它能让你听起来像个资深新闻主播或高科技公司的 CEO，而不需要指名道姓。另外，这也是逃避责任的好方法——说“家务会被做好的”听起来比“我会做家务”要神奇得多。How This Grammar Works
the bugs will be fixed（漏洞将被修复）。这种语法让我们能够讨论未来的结果，而不用让多余的人把句子弄得很乱。这就像是你说话时的极简主义室内设计——去掉了主语的杂乱，专注于结果。它也是许下含糊承诺的完美工具。如果一个政客说“税收将被降低”，他们严格来说并没有说 *他们* 会亲自去做，这给他们留了一些日后的回旋余地。这是属于未来的语法，关注的是“什么”，而不是“谁”。
Formation Pattern
will be 都保持不变。按照这三个步骤来构建你的句子：
will be。
Subject + will be + Past Participle (例如：The video will be uploaded.)
Subject + won't be (或 will not be) + Past Participle (例如：The secret won't be shared.)
Will + subject + be + Past Participle? (例如：Will the bill be paid?)
The app will be updated | 应用将会被更新
The event won't be cancelled | 活动将不会被取消
Will the package be delivered? | 包裹会被送达吗？
When To Use It
- 官方公告： “新体育场将于下个月开放。”这听起来比“他们要开体育场了”专业得多。
- 自动化流程： “您的密码很快就会被重置。”应用最爱用这个，因为并没有一个真正的“人”在重置密码。
- 新闻和媒体： “结果将在午夜公布。”它增加了一层客观的距离感。
- 指令： “药物将每日服用两次。”（等等，千万别真的从语法指南里听取医疗建议！）
- 社交媒体与游戏： “明天商店将添加新皮肤。”
- 推卸责任： “错误在所难免（Mistakes will be made）。”这是承认出了错但又不指责自己或团队的经典方式。它是语法规则里的“不是我的错，是客观情况造成的”。
Common Mistakes
- 漏掉
be： 这是最常见的错误。人们经常说The car will fixed。这听起来就像车是个有意识的巫师，正准备去修理别的什么东西。你绝对需要这个be来构成被动语态。 - 用错动词形式： 许多学习者会使用原形或
-ing形式。The house will be build是错的；必须是built。V3（过去分词）是没商量的。如果你不确定不规则形式，谷歌就是你最好的朋友！ - 过度使用： 虽然它非常适合正式写作，但事事都用它会让你听起来像个机器人。“披萨将被我吃掉”在语法上是正确的，但你的朋友可能会觉得你被机器人入侵了。日常个人行为还是坚持用主动语态吧。
- 与将来进行时混淆：
I will be working(主动语态) 和The work will be done(被动语态) 是不一样的。一个是关于正在进行的动作；另一个是关于完成的结果。
Contrast With Similar Patterns
- Future Simple Active:
The company will launch the app.
(我们关心的是公司)。 - Future Simple Passive:
The app will be launched.
(我们关心的是应用)。 - Present Simple Passive:
The app is updated every week.
(这是常规或习惯)。 - 用 'Going to' 的将来时被动语态:
The app is going to be launched.
这和will be几乎一模一样，但通常用于在非正式对话中感觉更确定或已经计划好的事情。 - Past Simple Passive:
The app was launched yesterday.
(专注于过去完成的动作)。
Future Simple Passive 想象成“新闻发布会”时态——一切都关乎大舞台上接下来会发生什么。Quick FAQ
won't be 和 will not be 是一回事吗？
是的！won't be 是缩写形式。它非常适合发短信或聊天。will not be 更正式，就像你在法律合同或老板发的非常严肃的邮件里看到的那样。
我可以用它来形容人吗？
当然可以。“当您的订单准备好时，您将收到通知（You will be notified）。”这并不意味着你是个物体；它只是意味着这个动作是作用在你身上的。
我是否总是需要用 by 来交代是谁做的？
不用！事实上，大多数被动句会完全省去 by 短语。只有在执行动作的人对故事真的很重要时才加上它，比如“这幅壁画将 by（由）一位著名的当地艺术家创作”。
这条规则在英式英语还是美式英语里更常见？
都常见！它在整个英语世界都是标准用法。无论你在伦敦还是洛杉矶，你的包裹 will be delivered（都会被送达）的。

Yes! You can say 'The house is going to be painted.' It follows the same logic: `be going to` + `be` + `V3`.
Not always, but it is *more* common in formal writing. In conversation, we use it for things like deliveries or services: 'My car will be fixed tomorrow.'
No. In fact, we usually omit 'by' if we don't know who did the action or if it's not important. 'The mail will be delivered' is better than 'The mail will be delivered by the mailman.'
'Will be done' is Future Simple Passive. 'Will have been done' is Future Perfect Passive, used for actions finished *before* a certain time.
No. Only 'transitive' verbs (verbs that take an object) can be passive. You cannot say 'The accident will be happened' because 'happen' has no object.
You can say 'Who will be invited?' or 'By whom will the decision be made?' (though the latter is very formal).
Yes, 'won't' is just the contraction of 'will not'. It is very common in both speaking and writing.
Because 'will' is a modal verb, and modal verbs are always followed by the base form of the next verb. The base form of 'is/am/are' is 'be'.
