Would rather 用法
Would rather 情愿；更愿意/想/喜欢would rather do something情愿/更想做某事would rather 后面永远是加动词原形。
She’d rather have a beer.她更乐意喝杯啤酒。
would rather do something 的形式还可以用来委婉地拒绝某种请求或者建议。
-- Shall we go out for dinner tonight? 我们今晚出去吃饭要不要？-- I’d rather eat at home, if you don’t mind.如果你不介意，我想在家里吃。
would rather have done something宁愿做过某事这是用来表示“希望过去做过某事，但事实上并没有做过”。
这是一种虚拟语气。
用的是have done 现在完成时态。
I’d rather have seen this movie at the cinema.我宁愿在电影院看了这部电影。
（事实并没有）would rather do something (A) than do something (B). 比起B，更愿意/喜欢/乐意做A当有两件事相比较的时候，would rather 后面接的do something 是比较想做的那件事，而不喜欢的另外一件事则由than 带出来。
这个句型也可以用上面的have done 形式来表示宁愿做过某事。
He’d rather stay at home than go out for dinner.比起出去外面吃，他更愿意在家里吃。
I’d rather have seen this movie at the cinema than on DVD.比起看DVD, 我宁可在电影院里面看这部电影。
（已经看了DVD。
）would rather not do something宁愿/情愿不做某事，不喜欢做某事。
这是否定形式。
英语中 would rather 的用法
在英语中，would rather 常用来表达偏好，相当于 would prefer，通常表达偏好的人是句子的主语，但是有的时候偏好的人不是句中的主语，那么动作到底是谁发出的呢？这需要从 would rather 的两种不同的结构讲起。
一、would rather1. 肯定句在肯定句中，would rather 常缩略为 'd rather ，结构是：主语 + would rather + 不带 to 不定式，此时句中的动作是主语要发出或已发出的，例如：Peter'd rather spend time on the beach.彼得宁愿花时间在海滩上。
I would rather learn a new language than study math.我宁愿学一门新语言也不愿学数学。
She would rather have spent the money on a holiday.她宁愿把钱花在度假上。
解析：此句意思是 The money wasn’t spent on a holiday.2. 疑问句在疑问句中，结构是 would + 主语 + rather + 不带 to 不定式，此时句中的动作是主语要发出的，例如：Would you rather stay at home?你宁愿呆在家里吗？Would they rather do homework tomorrow morning?他们宁愿明天早上做作业吗？3. 否定句在否定句中，结构是：would rather ('d rather) + not + 不带 to 不定式，此时句中的动作是主语要发出的，例如：She'd rather not go to class today.她宁愿今天不去上课。
I'd rather not dwell on the past.我不想再沉湎于过去了。
二、would rather … thanWould rather 常与 than 连用，用于在两个特定的动作中做出选择，此时句中的动作是主语要发出的或已发出的，would rather 和 than 后面接对等的成分，当前后动词一样时，可以省略后面的动词，例如：Would you rather eat dinner out than cook dinner tonight?今晚你宁愿在外面吃饭也不愿做饭吗？She would rather play tennis than go horseback riding.她宁愿打网球也不愿骑马。

Would rather 用法小结
文/郭李强
一、would rather意思是“宁愿、宁可、更、最好、还是为好”，后接动词原形,常省略为’d rather，表示优先选择的一种方式其否定形式是would rather not do sth. would rather没有人称和数的变化，所有的人称一律用would rather.“would rather+动词原形”是英语中常见的一个惯用句式，美国英语中多用had rather。
would (had)在此决无“过去”之意，它是一个情态助动词，且无词性、时态变化。
例：Mr. Li would rather not listen to rock music. 李先生不愿意听摇滚音乐。
Sh e’d rather work in the countryside. 她宁可到农村去工作。
二、如果在两者中进行取舍，表示“宁愿……而不愿……，与其……宁可……”的意思时，则可用would rather…than…或would…rather than…的句型
例: I would rather watch TV at home than go to the cinema.我宁可在家看电视而不愿去看电影。
请注意:
1) would rather…than…/would…rather than…也可以颠倒为：rather than…would…。
Would(rather)和than后都接不带to的动词不定式，若选用的动词相同，那么than 后的动词可以省略。
例：He would rather drink tea than coffee．他喜欢喝茶而不喜欢咖啡。
Rather than work in such bad condition, he would give up. 与其在这样差的条件下工作，他宁愿放弃。
2)使用would rather…than…句型时要注意“平行结构”，即在than 的前后要用两个同类的词或词组，如两个名词、两个不定式、两个介词短语等。
例：I would rather talk with his mother than with his father. 我宁愿和他妈说话而不愿和他爸说话。
三、在疑问句式中，would rather 与would rather…than…中的would要放在主语之前例：Which would you rather have, apples or bananas? 你喜欢吃苹果还是香蕉？
Would you rather read a novel than read a poem? 你宁愿看小说而不愿朗读诗歌吗？
四、would rather+从句，是一个常用的虚拟语气句型 Would rather+从句,谓语一般用过去时来表示现在或将来。
其意为“宁愿……,还是……好些”“一个人宁愿另一个人做某事”。
引导从句的that常省略。
在谈到过去的动作时，谓语则用过去完成时。
例：John wants to see me today. I would rather he came to tomorrow than today. 约翰今天想去看我。
我宁愿他明天来看我而不是今天。
(句中came不是表示过去而是表示将来) We’d rather he paid us the money tomorrow. 我们宁愿他明天付给我们那笔钱。
Don’t come tomorrow. I’d rather you came next weekend. 明天别来。
我希望你下周末来。
2）如果只涉及主语本人而不涉及另一个人，则would rather之后不接that从句而接have done结构。
例：I would rather have gone to the theatre than stayed home night. 我真希望昨天晚上去看了戏而不是呆在家里。
He would rather be poor than have got money by dishonest methods．他宁可穷也不愿意用不诚实的手段获取金钱。
五、would rather/sooner和prefer/would prefer的区别 would rather和would sooner 之间一般没有区别，但经常接触到的是would rather。
例：Tom would rather/sooner read than talk．汤姆宁可读书而不愿谈天。
Tom prefers reading to talking．汤姆喜欢读书而不喜欢谈天。
请注意：
1）would rather后跟不带to的不定式+than+不带 to的不定式，而prefer后跟动名词+to+动名词。
有时prefer后面也可跟名词，而在would rather之后要求只带动词原形。
例：He prefers wine to beer．= He would rather drink wine than beer．他喜欢喝红葡萄酒而不喜欢喝啤酒。
I prefer tennis to golf．= I’d rather play tennis than golf．我喜欢打网球而不喜欢打高尔夫球。
2）某些 prefer+名词的情况不能用 would rather完全确切地表达出来：
例如：He prefers dogs to cats．（他喜欢狗而不喜欢猫。
）和He would rather have dogs than cats．（他宁可养狗而不愿养猫。
）很明显，这两句的意思并不完全相同。
3） would rather+不带to的不定式有时可代替 would prefer+带 to的不定式。
例：I’d rather fly than go by sea．=I’d prefer to fly．我宁愿乘飞机也不愿乘船。
这两个结构后面带名词时情况也一样：
例：—Would you like some gin？
—I’d prefer a coffee．=I’d rather have coffee than gin．
—您想喝点杜松子酒吗？
—我想喝点咖啡。
/我想喝点咖啡，不想喝杜松子酒。
4）would rather/sooner和would prefer后面都可跟完成式，但后者带to。
例：We went by sea but I’d rather have gone by air=I’d prefer to have gone by air．我们是乘船去的，可我本想乘飞机去。
（我愿意乘飞机去，可我的愿望未能实现。
）这和would like+不定式的完成式有点相似，would like+带to 的不定式的完成式也表示未能实现的愿望。
