Would you correct my English, please? ( Nov 29 )

Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Would you check them, please?

No. 1

M: Did you hear about Jane? She's going to Hawaii next month.

F: Yes. She's going to marry.

M: Right. I'm very relieved to hear that.

F: I hope she will lead a happy life with her husband.

No. 2

M: How're things with you?

F: So so. My business is on a roll now. But I'm afraid the

consumption tax will be raised.

M: I see. Our new prime minister is trying [ going ] to do so.

Thank you. kenta

Hi, Mr Micawber.

We learn 'will' should be put after 'I hope' at school, but in fact, 'I hope she has ...' is correct, isn't it?

Thank you very mucy. kenta

Simple present is more usual than future after 'hope', I think, Kenta, though future isn't 'wrong'.
