Question

Young people usually____ city life to country life while old people _______ enjoy country life.

A．would rather; prefer	B．prefer; would rather
C．would rather; would rather	D．prefer; prefer

Answer 1

B

試題分析： prefer A to B表示與B相比更喜歡A，主語(yǔ)A和B結(jié)構(gòu)一定要相同；would rather，寧愿Would(rather)后接不帶to的動(dòng)詞不定式。句意：比起鄉(xiāng)下生活來(lái)，年輕人更喜歡城里的生活，然而老人更喜歡鄉(xiāng)下生活。結(jié)合語(yǔ)境可知選B。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：prefer和would rather的用法比較復(fù)雜，需要注意的是搭配動(dòng)詞的不同。非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的用法比較復(fù)雜，但都有比較固定的應(yīng)用規(guī)則，平時(shí)應(yīng)熟記這些規(guī)則，答題時(shí)結(jié)合具體語(yǔ)境分析。
