其他用法:
“would rather...than...”结构
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。
例如:I would rather watch TV at home than go to the cinema.
我宁可在家看电视而不愿去看电影。
在使用“would rather...than...”句型时,应注意以下几点:
1、than 后接 动词原形,但如果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。
例如:I’d rather you know that now than afterwards.
我宁可你现在就知道这件事,而不是以后。
(恢复原句:I’d rather you know that now than know afterwards.)
2、would rather...than...也可改写“would...rather than...”,其用法及含义仍不变。
例如:Facing the enemies, our soldiers would die rather than surrender.
面对敌人,我们的战士宁死不屈。
