would rather 后面是加to do 还是加doing

　　would rather 后面是加 do ，即动词原形。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。例如：
　　1、 Mr Li would rather not listen to rock music.
　　李先生不愿意听摇滚音乐。
　　2、 If you’d rather be alone, we’ll all leave here.
　　如果你宁愿独自呆着，那我们都离开这儿。
　　3、 He’d rather work in the countryside.
　　她宁可到农村去工作。
　　4、 You would rather stay at home and do some reading this evening.
　　今晚你最好呆在家中读点书。

would rather：宁愿；宁可；更喜欢
例句：I would rather stay than go. 比起离开，我更希望留下来。

拓展：
would rather not 宁可不 ; 宁愿 ; 最好不
would rather to do 相反 ; 宁愿做 ; 而是想做
would prefer rather than 宁愿
