请看下面中考题:
(2011•无锡)Jane’s mother preferred_______ TV at home to_______ to the concert.
A. to watch;go B. watching; going
C. watching; go D. to watch; going
分析这道中考题考查的是 prefer doing sth. to doing sth.,题意为“简的妈妈宁可在家看电视也不愿去听音乐会”,答案为 B。
这道中考题主要考查同学们对 prefer 一词的掌握情况。Prefer是中考重点词汇,它的用法较为灵活,蕴含的考点较多,常受到出题者的青睐,为帮助同学们正确使用这个词,现将它的用法作一细致梳理。
prefer相当于like sth. better,意思是“宁愿(选择); 更喜欢”,现在分词、过去式、过去分词要双写r,再加-ing,-ed,即preferring, preferred, preferred,用法有:
1. prefer+名词或代词,意为“更喜欢某人或某物”。如:
I prefer naturalscience. 我更喜欢自然科学。
Which do you prefer, English or maths?英语和数学,你更喜欢哪一科?
2. prefer + v-ing,,用动词的-ing形式作宾语,表示一般的“选择”或“喜欢”,或长期的“习惯性动作”。如:
—Do you like skating你喜欢滑冰吗?
—Yes, but I prefer swimming. 是的,不过我更喜欢游泳。
3. prefer +动词不定式,用动词不定式作宾语,表示某一具体场合下的“喜欢”或“一次性动作”。如:
I prefer to stay at home today.今天我宁愿呆在家里。
4. prefer后接不定式的复合结构作宾语,即prefer sb. to do sth.表示“宁愿某人做某事”。如:
I prefer him to do it in a different way.我宁愿他用不同的方法去做。
5. prefer+名词/动词的-ing形式 to+名词/动词的-ing形式,意为“喜欢……而不喜欢……”“喜欢……胜过……”“宁愿……而不愿……”,其中to是介词,不是动词不定式符号,to前后必须是同一范畴的名词或动词-ing形式。如:
He prefers English to Chinese. 比起语文他更喜欢英语。
He prefers swimming to surfing. 同冲浪相比,他更喜欢游泳。
6. prefer to do sth.rather than do sth.
表示“宁愿做……而不愿做……” 。
1) 在此结构中,前一个不定式要带上to,而后一个不定式则常省略to。如:
He prefers to mend his old car rather than buy a new one. 她宁愿修理他的旧车,也不愿买新车。
2) rather than也可以置于句首。如:
Rather than buy a new car, he prefers to mend his old one.
3) 该结构也可与preferdoing sth. to doing sth.相互换,意义相同。如:
All students prefer to take the bus rather than walk. = All students prefer taking the bus to walking. 所有的学生宁愿乘公交车,而不愿步行。
