Let's review some things we saw in class so you won't have any questions about the topic.
I'm pretty sure most of you would like to know what the future holds for you, but would you see a fortune teller? Would you belive anything she said? Would she be more likely to say something like "You will win a million dollars." or "You are going to win a million dollars."?
Before you answer, remember:
We often use GOING TO to make a prediction about the future, but when our prediction is based on evidence. We are saying what seems sure to happen.
We use WILL to express a subjective prediction, which is a hypothesis based on our opinion. Whether or not the event will happen is not certain. Very often this kind of prediction is introduced by I think/I don't think.
Are you ready to give you your answer?
If you think "You will win a million dollars." is right, you got it! The fortune teller has no evidence of what she's saying.
Here you see a girl who is very curious about her future; she couldn't help herself and is now counting on a fortune teller's help so she can find out what's next. Take a look at the key words and write the girl's questions. Also, write the fortune teller's answers, always giving the girl a reason, an explanation... Or telling her how to get what she wants.

He was also very curious to know more about the predictions for her star sign - as well as her boyfriend's, and the fortune teller was happy to help her with that too. Oh, she is a Cancer.
Did the girl get happy? Why (not)?
