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

试题分析：句意：当来自西方国家的人们想要放松他们自己时，他们宁愿和家人驾车出去，也不愿意在家看电视。prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.“宁愿做...而不做...”结合语境可知选C。
点评：prefer的用法比较复杂，需要注意的是prefer A to B 与prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.的含义相同，结构不同。解答此类题型需要注意的是后面搭配对象的不同。
