Question

When people from western countries want to relax themselves, they prefer _____with their families rather than    .
A. to watch TV, staying at home
B. to watch TV, go out
C. to drive out, watch TV at home

Answer 1

C

試題分析：句意：當來自西方國家的人們想要放松他們自己時，他們寧愿和家人駕車出去，也不愿意在家看電視。prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.“寧愿做...而不做...”結合語境可知選C。
點評：prefer的用法比較復雜，需要注意的是prefer A to B 與prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.的含義相同，結構不同。解答此類題型需要注意的是后面搭配對象的不同。
