[考点l]如何用英语表达个人的喜好或陈述个人的观

点

(2005名校示范卷)

-- Did you blame Tom for his absence from the lecture?

-- Yes, but ____ it.

　　　 A. I'd rather not have done

　　　 B. I'd better not do

　　　 C. I'd rather not did

　　　 D. I'm glad I have done

[答案与解析]A　 这道题属于陈述个人观点，当然，根

据上下文我们得知说话人还心存后悔之意，根据第一

句问话“你因为汤姆听课迟到的事儿责备了他吗?”答

句是肯定了“责备”一事，接着语气一转(用了but)，就

暗示出后悔“责备”之事，故正确答案是选项A。“I'd

rather not have done.”的意思是：我宁愿没有这样做

(即责备汤姆)。

[归纳]在英语中用来表达个人的喜好或陈述个人观点

的还有很多，例如：

① I'd rather...

② In my opinion,...

③ I really prefer...

④ I can't stand...

⑤ I'm not very interested in...

⑥ What I like is...例如：

I really prefer to stay at home in such weather. 像这样

的天气状况，我宁可呆在家里。

[考点2]怎样用英语表达自己的主观意愿和打算

(NMET 2001)

-- Good morning, Grand Hotel.

-- Hello, I'd like to book a room for the nights of the

　 18th and 19th.

-- ____.

　　　 A. What can I do for you?

　　　 B. Just a minute, please.

　　　 C. What's the matter?

　　　 D. At your service.

[答案与解析]B　 这道题考查的是酒店英语。根据上

下文可知，顾客想订两天的房。酒店服务员的回答只

能是B项“请等一下。”，而不是：A项“你想要什么?”。

因为顾客已经表示了想订房；C项“出什么事了?”这句

一般用于看病或出事故；D项“随时为你服务”。故只

有B项正确。

[归纳]常见的表达主观意愿和打算的方式还有：

① I'm interested to...but...

② I'd like to...

③ I hope to find.-.

④ I'm glad that...

⑤ I don't know much about...

⑥ I think I might want to...例如：

-- I like to read poems about nature. 我想读有关大自

然方面的诗歌。

-- why are you interested to read such poems? 你为什

　 么想读这种诗歌?
