　　But I'd rather spend my college days finding out what children are
interested in.
        　　重点
        　　I'd rather是I would/had rather的缩略表达，后面可以接动词原形或者从句，意为“我更愿意;我宁愿”。如：
        　　1) Tom would rather read than talk. 汤姆宁愿看书也不愿说话。
        　　2) I'd rather you go there by yourself. 我宁愿你自己去那里。
        　　考点归纳
        　　would rather与prefer含义相同，但是用法不同。prefer后面接动词不定式、名词或者动名词。如：
        　　Tom prefers reading to talking. (相当于Tom would rather read than
talk.)汤姆宁愿看书也不愿说话。
        　　He prefers wine to beer. (相当于He would rather drink wine than
beer.)他更愿意喝葡萄酒而不是啤酒。
        　　I'd prefer to fly. (相当于I'd rather fly.)我宁愿乘飞机。
