引導(dǎo)從句的that常省略。在談到過(guò)去的動(dòng)作時(shí),謂語(yǔ)則用過(guò)去完成時(shí)。
would rather沒(méi)有人稱和數(shù)的變化,所有的'人稱一律用would rather。“would rather+動(dòng)詞原形”是英語(yǔ)中常見(jiàn)的一個(gè)慣用句式,美國(guó)英語(yǔ)中多用had rather。would (had)在此決無(wú)“過(guò)去”之意,它是一個(gè)情態(tài)助動(dòng)詞,且無(wú)詞性、時(shí)態(tài)變化。
詞匯搭配:
Would rather stay at home寧愿呆在家
would rather do than do寧愿…而不愿
