rather的用法可从以下几点掌握:

一、rather作副词,意为"宁愿;宁可"。作此意解的rather常和would / had连用,构成固定短语。would / had rather...than译为"宁愿......而不愿" ,应该特别注意此短语的否定构成及其后接的动词形式。如:

He would rather he the all one than the large one. 他宁愿要一个小的,而不要大的。

I'd rather take the slowest train than go there by air. 我宁愿坐慢的火车,也不乘飞机去那里。

I would rather not l you the secret right now. 我现在不愿把那个秘密告诉你。

would / had rather 后接从句时,从句中的谓语动词用虚拟语气。如:

I would / had rather you ted the letter right away, 我倒希望你把这封信立即发出。

I would / had rather that she had stayed at home. 她那时要是留在家里就好了。

二、rather作副词用时,意为"更确切地"。 此用法的rather常用在or rather这一短语中,表示想要纠正已经说过的话,或欲使已说过的话更确切。如:

He worked till late last night, or rather, early in the morning. 他一直工作到深夜,或者更确切地说,到今天凌晨。

The building is like a palace, or rather a temple. 这幢建筑物像一座宫殿,或者更确切地说像一座寺庙。

三、rather作副词用时, 还可作"相当;颇;有点儿"解。如:

You've done rather well.你做得相当好。

The way he is living is rather strange to me. 他的生活方式我觉得很怪。

rather, fairly, quite, pretty的区别:

1. 从程度上说, fairly是轻的一个;quite比fairly 语气稍强;rather 在程度上比quite更重一些;pretty 和rather 不多,但大多数情况下用于非正式文体。如:

They were getting along fairly well with each other. 他们相处还不错。

He was quite polite, but he wasn't ready to me. 他相当有礼貌,但他并不愿意帮助我。

There's soming rather strange about the way he talks to you. 他跟你说话的样子真有点怪。

Twenty-five is pretty old to take up ballet dancing.二十五岁才学跳芭蕾,年纪就太大了。

2. rather 和quite可放在不定冠词前,也可放在不定冠词之后,还可以和动词连用,而fairly 和pretty没有这些用法。如:

That is quite / rather a surprising result. =That is a quite / rather surprising result. 那是一个相当惊人的结果。

I rather / quite like to go for a walk after supper. 我颇喜欢在晚饭后出去散步。

3. 只有rather可以修饰比较级,还可和too连用。如:

This comr is rather more expensive than that one.这部电脑比那部昂贵一些。

This book is rather too difficult for the beginners.这部书对初学者来说太难了。

四、rather than 的用法。

rather 不仅是一个表示程度的副词,还能用来表示选择,意为"而非;(与其......)倒不如"。rather than 经常用在"平行结构"里,即连接两个对等成分。

I'd prefer to go in August rather than July. 我愿八月去,不愿七月去。

I'd call her hair chestnut rather than brown. 我宁愿说她的头发是栗色,而不是棕色。

We ought to invest in new machines rather than buildings. 我们应该在新的机器上而不是在房屋上投资。

不可以

rather修饰形容词什么级

rather和贬义词连用,有时也可以和某些褒义词连用如:good,clr,well,pretty,此时表示“very”。

rather用在比较级前,意为a little或slightly它可以和too连用也可以放在不定冠词a(an)的前后均可。

“rather”放在句首一般是什么意思?

rather than和more...than的比较:前者表示“与其……倒不如……”,后者表示“更……比起……”,注意词组more...than中的than前面不可以加上rather。

He depends on yoather than on me.

He depends more on you than on me.

他依赖你胜过依赖我。

在rather加形容词再加名词的结构中,冠词a置于rather前后都可以,如a rather big dog和rather a big dog(一只相当大的狗)两种表达都可以;

had rather属于习惯用语,表示“宁愿,宁可”,主语短语中必须用had,不可以改成he,且一般其后面接不含to的不定式。

I had rather stay with John than with Charles.

比起查尔斯我宁可和约翰呆一起。

had/would rather后一般接不含that所的从句,且从句用虚拟语气。

I would/had rather you paid me now.

我宁愿你现在付钱给我。

had/would rather后还可接than,再加不含to的不定式,还要注意would rather后只可接动词原形。

I would rather stay here than go on holiday.

我宁愿呆在这里,也不愿意去度。

prefer to...rather than...表示“比起……更喜欢……做某事”,注意结构中than后直接加动词原形,而不是不定式to do。

I prefer to work rather than remian idle.

比起无所事事,我更喜欢工作。

fairly,quite,rather以及pretty的比较:

四个词均属于程度副词。

Fairly一般修饰形容词与副词,表示很一般的程度。

“How was the film?”

“Fairly good. Not the best one I’ve seen this year.”

quite一般修饰动词和名词,表示的程度要比fairly深一点。

“How was the film?”

“Quite good. You ought to go.”

rather一般修饰动词(尤其时感观动词)和名词,表示的程度比quite要更强烈一点,意为“比预期的还要多一些”。

“How was the film?”

“Rather good. I was surprised.”

pretty是非正式用语,修饰形容词与副词,表示的程度与rather相当。

“How’s things?”

“Pretty good. You OK?”

放在句首,往往加上逗号,不加也可以,表示“相反”

英语中在后加原级的副词,以及加比较级的副词

修饰比较级的副词

1) 只用于修饰比较级的:much;still;n

2) 既可以修饰比较级又可以修饰原级的:a little; a bit; rather 等

n修饰形容词,副词的比较级,以加强比较的语气和程度.修饰形容词,副词比较级的常用修饰词有:no,a little,a bit,much,n,still,a lot,a great deal,far,by far,rather,any等.在这些词中,其中no在修饰比较级时,在意义上否定两者,表示前者在某方面不比后者强多少.

例如:

He is no richer than Peter.

他不比彼得富裕多少.=He is as poor as Peter.

他和彼得一样穷.表示前者比后者强一点时,通常采用a little,a bit等.

例如:The room is a bit larger than that one.这个房间比那个稍大一点.表示前者比后者强很多时,通常采用much,n,still等.(still修饰形容词,副词的比较级时,可以位于比较级之前或之后.)

例如:He works still harder than r.=He works harder still than r.他比以往更加努力学习了.表示前者在某方面远远地超过对方时,通常采用far,by far,a lot,a great deal等.

例如:Matters are a lot better than r before.情况远远比以往好.在否定句,疑问句或条件状语从句中,修饰形容词,副词的比较级,只能用any来修饰.例如:

He can't jump any higher.他不能跳得更高了.

Can he jump any higher?他能跳得更高一些吗?

If you can jump any higher,I will give you a prize.

如果你能跳得更高些,我就奖励你.

副词修饰原级的就是very,a little; a bit; rather ,pretty,quite,fairly,so,too.
