One of the most common ways to talk
about the future is with will, for example:
                     I will call you tonight.
      We often call this the "future simple
tense", but technically there are no future
                          tenses in English.
    In this construction, the word will is a
                      modal auxiliary verb.
   We often use will to make a prediction about
    the future. Again, there is no firm plan. We
    are saying what we think will happen. Here
    are some examples:
   It will rain tomorrow.
   People won't go to Jupiter before the 22nd
    century.
   Who do you think will get the job?
Positive sentences
S + [will + verb (infinitive)] + C

Negative
Just add "not" => will not - won't

Questions
QW + [will + S + verb ]+ C
We also use will to express and talk about
PROMISES,DECISIONS, PREDICTIONS and to
 OFFER help.

 Promise = I'll never leave you darling!
 Prediction= It'll rain later.
 Offer= I'll carry the books for you.
 Decisions = I will stop smoking.
