题目内容:
rather than可以加动名词吗,此时rather than相当于介词吗优质解答
可以的,如:I like singing rather than dancing.
此时rather than仍为连词,连接并列的词语singing和dancing. - 追问:
- 如果做状语呢,可以直接加doing吗
- 追答:
- rather than用作复合从属连词来引导选择状语或状语从句,rather than的状语或状语从句也是以肯定形式来表示否定的意义,可译为"而不是"或"宁可……,也不……"。这时,rather than引出不带主语的不定式短语作状语(A),接带主语的不定式短语作状语(B),引导状语从句(C)。例如: (A)Rather than leave the village, they decided to settle there forever.他们决定永远住在这个村子里,而不是离开。 Rather than go by air, I'd take the slowest train.我将乘最慢的火车去,而不乘飞机去。 (B)Rather than asking my brother, I'd prefer to do the job myself.我更喜欢自己来做这项工作,而不喜欢让我哥哥做。 (C)Rather than that should happen, he would give up his job.他宁愿放弃自己的职业,也不愿让那事发生。
