(辨析)prefer to,would rather 的区别
解题思路: 辨析
解题过程:
1。语意上“would rather … than…”表达的更强烈。
would rather … than… 宁愿要…而不要
prefer …to… 更喜欢
2。结构上
prefer doing to doing
would rather do than do;
prefer doing to talking喜欢做而不喜欢说
I'd rather go to the cinema than stay at home and watch TV.
prefer意为“宁可、宁愿、更喜欢”,其后可以接名词、代词、动词不定式、动名词或从句,还可以构成固定句型。
  (1)prerfer+n. (pron.) 宁愿,更喜欢
  Which do you prefer,rice or bread?

  (本句强调prefer to do与prefer doing结构的区别,prefer swimming指“一般爱好”,don't prefer to swim强调某次具体的行为,即现在由于种种原因而“不想去游泳”。)
  (4)prefer+(doing) sth.+to (doing) sth.
  宁愿选择……宁愿……而不愿……

“would rather+动词原形”是英语中常见的一个惯用句式(美国英语中多用had rather)。'd rather为would(或had)rather的缩写形式。Would (had ) 在此决无“过去”之意,且无词性、时态变化,它是一个情态助动词。该句式常用来表示选择的意愿,意为“宁可……”“宁愿……”“最好……”。如:
  He'd rather work in the countryside.
  他宁可到农村去工作。
  If you'd rather be alone,we'll all leave here.
  如果你宁愿独自呆着,那我们都离开这儿。
  You would rather stay at home and do some reading this evening.
  今晚你最好呆在家中读点书。
  would rather与than连用.可构成另一个惯用句式,即“would rather…than…”,意为“宁可(愿)……(而)不要(愿)……”“与其……不如……”。用以表达主语的意愿。强调经过选择后做其中一件事,而不愿做另一件事。如:
  I would rather watch TV at home than walk outside.
  我宁可在家看电视而不愿到外边散步。
  在使用“would rather…than…”句型时。应注意以下几点:
  (1)如该句型前后连接的两个动词相同,则than之后的那个动词可省去。如:
  I'd rather you know that now than afterwards.
  我于可你现在就知道这件事.而不是以后。
  (2)would rather…than…也可改写成“would…rather than…”,其用法及含义仍不变。如:
  Facing the enemies,our soldiers would die rather than surrender.
  面对敌人,我们的战士宁死不屈。
  (3)有时,为表示语气上的强调,可将rather than置于句首。如:
  Rather than refuse to help you,I would borrow money from my friends.
  我宁可向朋友借钱,也不愿拒绝帮助你。
  (4)would rather后也可跟从句,表示主语宁愿让某人干某事。这时,从句谓语动词要用虚拟语气,即用一般过去时表示现在或将来要做的事;用过去完成时表示过去要做的事。如:
  I'd rather she set out to do the work now.
  我宁愿她现在就着手做这项工作。
  (5)would rather后还可接动词的完成时,表示主语要做某事,而结果事与愿违的意思。如:
  I'd rather have left a note on her desk.
  我本想留张字条在她书桌上的。(事实上没有留)
