Read the following excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics. As it happens, Feldman’s accidental study provides a window on

to a form of cheating that has long stymied academics: white-collar crime. (Yes, shorting the bagel man is white-collar crime, writ however small.) It might seem ludicrous to address as large and intractable a problem as white-collar crime through the life of a bagel man. But often a small and simple question can help chisel away at the biggest problems. Despite all the attention paid to rogue companies like Enron, academics know very little about the practicalities of white-collar crime. The reason? There are no good data. A key fact of white-collar crime is that we hear about only the very slim fraction of people who are caught cheating. Most embezzlers lead quiet and theoretically happy lives; employees who steal company property are rarely detected. What purpose does the “bagel man” serve in this argument? to shift the focus toward a specific man to entertain the reader with a funny story to show the seriousness of cheating to shed light on white-collar crime

“The train will leave” vs. “is going to leave” vs. “leaves” vs. “is leaving”
Temka [501]


The meaning of all of those choices are relatively same, however the difference arises in the probability of the certain action happening.

"The train will leave"...this implies that the situation is probable, and that the train leaves at the specified time every day.

"The train is going to leave"...this implies that there preparations currently underway and if complete, the train will leave at that particular time.

"The train leaves"...this implies that the train departs at the specified time every time.

"The train is leaving"...this implies that all necessary preparations have been made and the train will leave at the specified time.
