prefer 意為“更喜歡”,其英語釋義為like… better . prefer 通常用于以下句型:
(1) prefer…to …
意為“與······比較起來更喜歡······”,後面可以跟名詞,代詞或動名詞作賓語。例:
She prefer coffee to milk.與牛奶比較起來,我更喜歡咖啡。
I prefer walking to cycling .與騎自行車比較起來,我更喜歡步行。
prefer…to…可以和like…better than…進行互換。在聽力考試中,經常出現此類試題。上面兩句可以分别變為:
She likes coffee better than milk.
I like walking better than cycling.
(2)prefer to do sth rather than do sth
“喜歡······勝過······”“甯願做·····而不願做·····”,注意前面用是動詞不定式,而後面用的是動詞原形。如:
He prefers to go by train rather than go by air.他甯願乘火車,而不願坐飛機去。
My brother prefers to watch TV at home rather than play basketball with me.我弟弟甯願在家看電視,也不願和我打籃球。
注意:其過去式和過去分詞形式為preferred.
