及物動(dòng)詞prefer相當(dāng)于like sth. better, 意思是“寧愿; 較喜歡”, 現(xiàn)在分詞、過去式要雙寫-r,再加-ing, -ed，即preferring, preferred, preferred。作為重要考點(diǎn)的prefer用法較為靈活, 其主要用法歸納如下:

1. prefer + n. / pron. / doing / sth. 喜歡某人或某物; 寧愿做某事

Mr. Brown preferred spending his spare time doing some reading. 布朗先生比較喜歡把業(yè)余時(shí)間用來讀點(diǎn)書。

2. prefer ... to ... 喜歡……而不喜歡……;寧愿……而不愿……

用作賓語的是名詞、代詞或動(dòng)詞的 -ing形式, 其中to是介詞, 不是動(dòng)詞不定式符號。

He prefers English to Chinese. 比起漢語他更喜歡英語。

Thousands of children nowadays prefer doing their homework to a background of pop music to doing it in a quiet room. 成千上萬的孩子如今寧愿一邊聽流行音樂一邊做作業(yè)，也不愿在安安靜靜的房間里做。

4. prefer that sb. (should) do sth. 寧愿某人做某事

在that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句中,我們應(yīng)當(dāng)用虛擬語氣“should+動(dòng)詞原形”,其中的should可以省略。

5. prefer to do ... rather than do ... 寧愿……而不愿……

Rather than go on holiday to the seaside I prefer to work days and go to school nights. 我寧愿白天工作, 晚上上學(xué), 而不愿到海邊度假。
