Abstract: In this paper we consider a mean curvature flow $V=H+A$ in a high dimensional cylinder $OmegaimesR$, where, $A$ is a constant, $Omega$ is a bounded domain in $R^n$, and, for a hypersurface $y=u(x,t)$ over $Omega$, $V$ and $H$ denote its normal velocity and mean curvature, respectively. Assume the hypersurface contacts the cylinder boundary $partialOmegaimesR$ with prescribed angle $heta(x)$. Under certain assumptions such as $Omega$ is strictly convex and $|cosheta{|}_{C^2}$ is small, or $Omega$ is not necessarily convex but $|A|$ is sufficiently large, we derive some {it uniform-in-time gradient bounds} for the solutions to initial boundary value problems. Then, we present a trichotomy result as well as its criterion for the asymptotic behavior of the solutions, that is, when $I:=A|Omega|+in{t}_{partialOmega}cosheta(x)dsigma>0$ (resp. $=0$, $<0$), the solution $u$ converges as $toinfty$ to a translating solution with positive speed (resp. stationary solution, a translating solution with negative speed).
