Kate __________ the hills __________ when she was young. A．preferred to climb; rather than exercise B．prefers climbing; to exercising C．preferred to climb; to exercise D．preferred climbing; to exercising

Answer 1

C

试题分析：句意：当她年轻时，凯特为了锻炼，宁愿去爬山。本句中不定式to exercise做目的状语，表示具体的将要进行的动作。前文prefer to表示更喜欢做某事，故选C。 点评：prefer的用法比较复杂，需要注意的是prefer A to B 与prefer to的区别。非谓语动词的用法比较复杂，但都有比较固定的应用规则，平时应熟记这些规则，答题时结合具体语境分析。
