prefer的用法
1、后接不定式时与rather
than
或instead
of连用,如:He
preferred
to
die
rather
than
(to)
steal.
/
He
preferred
to
die
instead
of
stealing.
他宁死也不去偷窃。
2、注意介词搭配,如:
I
prefer
swimming
to
skating.
(I
like
swimming
better
than
skating.)我喜欢游泳胜过滑冰。prefer
因其本身含有比较之意,而不可再与more
或most连用。
3、prefer+名词或动名词“宁愿”,“更喜欢”。He
comes
from
Shanghai,so
he
prefers
rice.
他是上海人,因此更喜欢吃米饭。I
prefer
going
by
bike.我宁愿骑单车去。I
prefer
the
white
one.我喜欢那个白的。
4、prefer
to
do
“愿意做”。I
prefer
to
go
at
once.我愿意马上就走。
5、prefer
***.

do
“愿意某人做”

once.我倒希望你马上就走。
6、prefer
sth.
to
sth.“宁愿做.而不做.”.

tea

milk.我宁愿喝茶也不喝牛奶。I

sth.
rather
than
do
sth.“宁愿做.而不做.”

out.我宁愿呆在家里也不出去。
8、prefer+
that从句“宁愿”(从句一般用虚拟语气)I
prefer
that
you
should
do
it.我宁愿你做这件事。
prefer最常见的意思是“宁可“、“宁愿(选择)“、“比较喜欢“、“更喜欢“等,可以构成以下结构。
一.
prefer
sth.
“Do
you
like
French?““Yes,but
I
prefer
English.““你喜欢法语吗?““喜欢,但是我更喜欢英语。““Which
do
you
prefer,rice
or
bread?““Either
will
do.““你比较喜欢吃什么,米饭还是面包?““随便哪一个都行.“注:prefer是“比较喜欢,更喜欢“的意思,即like
better,因此就不能再与better,more等比较级词语连用。
二.prefer
over
sth.
I
prefer
over
this
newly-built
lab,and
you?
我比较喜欢这个新建的实验室,你呢?

doing
B

on
holidays

Wang
preferred
reading

doing
nothing.
即使在假日,王先生宁愿读书而不愿闲着。
注:在这种结构中,to为介词,而不是不定式符号,故其后应当接动名词形式,决不能接动词原形。另外,为了保持前后对应关系,prefer后面也应当接动名词形式。
六.
prefer
to
do
sth.
They
prefer
to
spend
the

the
morning
wandering
in
the

Brown

time
doing
some
reading.

注:
这种prefer后面接动名词的结构,用来谈论一般情况下“更喜欢某种活动“,而在一个特定场合下表示“特别喜欢“时,得用上述prefer后接动词不定式结构。
八.
prefer
to
do
sth.
rather
than
do
sth.
These
workers
prefered
to
work
extra
hours
at
night
rather
than
leave
the
work
until
the
next
week.
这些工人宁愿加班干,也不愿把工作留到下一个星期。
注:这种结构中的rather
than可以置于句首。例如:

than
go
on
holiday
to
the
seaside
I
prefer
to
work
days
and
go
to
school
nights.
我宁愿白天工作,晚上上学,而不愿到海边度假。
注:有时rather可以移至第一个不定式之前,而让than留在第二个不定式之前,即为prefer
rather.than结构.这种用法多见于书面语言,在口语中很少用.例如:
She
prefers
rather
to
sew
than
to
knit.
她喜欢缝纫而不爱编织。
九.
prefer
to
do
sth.
rather
than
doing
sth.

prefer
to
join
in
the
celebrations
rather
than
going
on
a
visit
to
the
Palace
Museum.

注:有时名词也可用于rather
than之后,这种用法多用以表示在某种具体场合的选择。例如:
“What
shall
we
have
for
lunch,rice
or
buns?““I
prefer
rice
rather
than
buns.““我们午饭吃什么,米饭还是圆面包?““我宁可吃米饭而不想吃圆面包。“这句话表示:在这种具体的场合“我宁可吃米饭。“实际可视为在prefer
和rather
than之后均省略了to
have.
注:有时该结构前后两个不定式意思相同,仅各自带有不同的修饰附加成分,那么第二个不定式可予以省略,只保留不同的修饰附加成分而置于rather
than之后。例如:
Mr.
Smith
preferred
to
meet
us
downstairs
rather
than
upstairs.
***先生宁愿在楼下而不愿在楼上会见我们。
十.
prefer

to
our
art
exhibition
next
week.

十一.
prefer+that-clause.在that宾语从句中,我们应当用虚拟语气“should+动词原形“,其中的should可以省略。

十二.
