THE FUTURE

Both "will" and "be going to" can express the idea of a general prediction
about the future. Predictions are guesses about what might happen in the
future. In "prediction" sentences, the subject usually has little control over the
future. In the following examples, there is no difference in meaning. 
Examples: 
SCIENTISTS WILL / ARE GOING TO FIND A CURE FOR CANCER. 
 
MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WILL / ARE GOING TO LIVE IN APARTMENTS
IN THE FUTURE. 
 
GEORGE WILL / IS GOING TO LIKE THE PRESENT YOU BOUGHT FOR HIM. 
 
You can use “Definitely”, “Probably” and “Maybe” in future predictions. 

My brother will definitely pass the TOEFL exam. (100%) 

He definitely won’t get the highest score. 
 
My friend, Liza will probably get a good job after graduation. (90%) 
She probably won’t be able to live on her own soon.
