Future predictions

Making future predictions are common when you are talking about situations. Also, it is frequent that some of them are not sure. In the course, I learned to use some phrases that helping to do predictions.

       We can use modal verbs: will, could, ma and might. Furthermore, we can also use phrases that I divided in four categories: Will almost definitely happen, likely to happen, unlikely to happen and Impossible. I think it is better if I show a chart that I made:
 


Many examples are:

Will almost definitely happen:
         -  I will presumably I am going to pass the course.

Likely to happen
     - There is a strong possibility that I get a good grade.

Unlikely to happen
     - Some classmates probably won’t the course.

Impossible
     - It is inconceivable that we’ll be able to travel next month.

Practicing makes you a master. I did some exercises. In this link you will be able to practice:  http://web2.uvcs.uvic.ca/elc/studyzone/410/grammar/410-future-possibility-and-probability-modals1.htm
