betodo和beabouttodo有什么区别

be about to do指马上就要进行的动作,也就是非常近的将来.往往不与表示将来的时间状语连用,但是与when引导的时间状语从句连用,表示正打算做什么事情的时候突然发生了一件由 when引导的动作的事情.但是be to do 一般表示实现计划好,打算好要去做的事,可以和具体的将来时间搭配.
be to do:有责任,义务,约定的含义.
e.g Parents are to take care of their children.
be about to do:表即将做某事．
e.g The plane is about to take off.

be to do 一般指计划做或者义务做某事，只是发生在将来的某一时段，具体不定；
be about to do 则是在将来马上就要发生的事情；
而且be about to do 不能接时间状语，如 tomorrow，immediately，etc，如果想加时间就只能加when 从句；
be to do则没有这样的限制。

它们都是“将要做”的意思 而且：
be to do 有既定，决定，决心的意思
be about to 有即将，(时间上)临近的意思
