Question

My sister Julia would rather  _____ newspaper than watch TV on Sundays.
A. reading        B. reads        C. read.

Answer 1

C

句意：在周日，我的姐姐茱莉亚宁愿读报纸也不愿意看电视。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。和than搭配使用时，注意前后动词形式一致。故选C.
