课文注释及词汇讲解
* We are going to be working together.
我们将在一起工作。
该句用的是将来进行时，意义相当于一般将来时，即该句也可以说成：We are going work together. 用将来进行时目的是语言更加形象生动
。中国学生往往不敢用将来进行时。其实该时态用法与一般将来时基本一样，而且能丰富我们的表达方式，也更符合口语习惯。
eg. I will beworking in New York next month.
我下个月将到纽约去工作。
* have to 不得不，必须
must的意思也是"必须"。
两者的区别为：
have to 是一种客观要求。
must 为主观认为。
eg. According to the contract[合同] wehave to pay by L/C[信用证]
根据合同规定，我们必须以信用证付款。[合同条款是客观要求]
