Latin Participles

Hey, People:

I'm wondering if you of you could explain how you would translate the genetive "about to do" and "about to be done" (participles) in Latin into English. How would they read? I'm a bit confused about the four participles in general. I know they have to match the noun, but I sometimes don't get how they read, especially when using the future and passive perfect. If you have any info. on this, that would be most appreciated!

PS I'm using Wheelock, so please don't refer me to him again. jajajajaja.
