prefer和preferably和rather than 有什么不同

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

首先 preferably 是个副词.意思是： 较好；宁可，宁愿；更适宜
To be a good writer, I think you must find a quiet environment where you can think, preferably one with limited accessibility.
要成为一名好作家，我想你必须找到一处你能思考的安静环境，最好是一处通达有限的地方。

对于prefer 和rather than你主要知道以下几个短语就可以了
prefer to do sth. = prefer doing sth
prefer to do sth rather than do sth = would rather do than do
prefer sth to sth
prefer doing sth to doing sth

rather than 而不是；宁可…也不愿

EXAMPLE:
I prefer to write to her rather than telephone her.我宁愿给她写信也不愿意给她打电话。
The school board would prefer to adhere to established norms.
学校董事会宁愿选择坚持既定的规范。

这个农夫情愿以半价出售这些蔬菜，也不愿意听任它们烂掉。
Observation more than books, experience rather than persons, are the prime educators.
