296 would like和 want

A 在下列情况下,这两个词可以互换使用:
1 用于请求或有关请求的问句中(但这里不使用 would not like,参见下面B1):
Customer:I’d like some raspberries,please./I want some raspberries,please.
顾客:请给我拿点儿木莓。
Greengrocer:I’m afraid I haven’t any.Would you like somestrawberries?
蔬菜水果商:对不起,我没有木莓了。您来点草莓怎么样?
Customer:No,I don’t want any strawberries,thanks.
顾客:不,谢谢,我不想要草莓。(这里不能用 wouldn’t like。)
I would like常常要比 I want更有礼貌。
would you like?要比do you want?更有礼貌,也更殷勤。
would you like?可以含有愿意满足别人的希望的意思。do youwant?则不含有这种意思。因此,与顾客或客人打交道时,通常用 would you like?:
Caller:I’d like to/I want to speak to Mr X,please.
打电话者:我想找X先生说话。
Telephonist:Mr X is out.Would you like to speak to Mr Y?
话务员:X先生出去了。您跟Y先生说行吗?
2 如果不是提出请求而只是谈到愿望时,可以随意用would like或want的肯定式、疑问式或否定式。它们的意思没有区别,然而,I want要比I would like显得更自信。 I want通常不用于表示不可实现的愿望:
I would like to live on Mars.
但愿我能住到火星上去。
B would like和want在下列用法中不能互换:
1 表示邀请时用 would you like?结构,而不能用do you want?结构:
Would you like a cup of coffee?
您想喝一杯咖啡吗?
Would you like to e to the theatre?
您想来剧院看戏吗?
do you want?用于此处只表示一种询问,不含有邀请的意思。
2 wouldn’t like和 don’t want是有区别的。
don’t want表示没有某种愿望;wouldn’t like表示不喜欢。因此,wouldn’t like不能用来回答邀请或提议,因为在这种回答中 wouldn’t like的口气将是不礼貌的。在这里常用 don’twant或其他形式来代替 wouldn’t like:
—Would you like some more coffee?
—No,I don’t want any more,thanks./No,thanks.
—您再来点儿咖啡吗?
—不,不要了,谢谢。
C 在过去时中这两种形式的变化不同。在间接引语中want变为 wanted,而would like不起变化:
Tom said,‘I would like/want to see it.’
汤姆说:“我想看看它”。相当于:
Tom said he would like/wanted to see it.
汤姆说他想看看它。
但如果不用间接引语的结构来表示,只能说: Tom wanted tosee it(这里我们不能用would like因为Tom would like to seeit的意思是指现在或将来)。
D would like有两个过去形式:would like+ 不定式的完成式或would like+ 不定式/名词/代词。这些形式只能表示未能实现的愿望:
I’d like to have gone skiing./I’d have liked a day’s skiing.
我本想去滑雪的。(但我未能实现我的愿望。)

297 would rather/sooner和prefer/would prefer

would rather和would sooner之间没有区别,但经常听到的是would rather。
A would rather/sooner的主语与后面的动作的主语相同时,would rather/sooner之后常常接不带to的不定式:
Tom would rather read than talk.
汤姆宁可读书而不愿谈天。
1 would rather/sooner+ 不带to的不定式可用来表示现在的动作,以代替prefer+ 动名词:
Tom prefers reading to talking.
汤姆喜欢读书而不喜欢谈天。
注意:would rather后跟不带to的不定式+than+不带 to的不定式,而prefer后跟动名词+to+动名词。
prefer后面也可跟名词,而在would rather之后要求只带动词原形:
He prefers wine to beer.相当于:
He would rather drink wine than beer.
他喜欢喝红葡萄酒而不喜欢喝啤酒。
I prefer tennis to golf.相当于:
I’d rather play tennis than golf.
我喜欢打网球而不喜欢打高尔夫球。
某些 prefer+ 名词的情况不能用 would rather完全确切地表达出来:He prefers dogs to cats(他喜欢狗而不喜欢猫)和 Hewould rather have dogs than cats(他宁可养狗而不愿养猫)意思并不完全相同。
2 would rather+ 不带 to的不定式不能表示过去的偏爱。所以与 Tom would rather read than talk相当的过去形式为 Tompreferred reading to talking/liked reading better than talking。(参见下面4。)
3 would rather+ 不带to的不定式可代替 would prefer+带 to的不定式:
I’d rather fly than go by sea./I’d prefer to fly.
我宁愿乘飞机也不愿乘船。
注意:用would prefer时,只提到你愿意做的这件事,而不提另外一件你不愿做的事,如上所述。因此,如想把愿意和不愿意的两个动作都提到,则要用would rather。
这两个结构后面带名词时情况也一样:
—Would you like some gin?
—I’d prefer a coffee./I’d rather have coffee than gin.
—您想喝点杜松子酒吗?
—我想喝点咖啡。/我想喝点咖啡,不想喝杜松子酒。
4 would rather/sooner和would prefer后面都可跟完成式,但后者带to:
We went by sea but I’d rather have gone by air/I’d prefer to have goneby air.
我们是乘船去的,可我本想乘飞机去。(我愿意乘飞机去,可我的愿望未能实现。)
这和 would like+ 不定式的完成式有点相似,would like+带to 的不定式的完成式也表示未能实现的愿望。(参见第296节D。)
B 如句子的两个主语不相同,可用主语+ would rather/sooner后面跟主语+ 过去时(虚拟语气)结构:
—Shall I give you a cheque?
—I’d rather you paid cash.
—我付给您支票行吗?
—我想您最好付现金。
注意:用would rather+主语+didn’t表示带否定意义的偏爱:
—Would you like him to paint it?
—No,I’d rather he didn’t(paint it).
—您想让他给它上油漆吗?
—不,我希望他不要这么做。
Ann wants to tell Tom,but I’d rather she didn’t(tell him).
安想告诉汤姆,但我不想让她告诉他。
然而,prefer与like相同,后面都跟宾语+ 带to的不定式:
I’d prefer you to pay cash.
我想你最好付现金。
I’d prefer him not to paint it.
我不想让他给它上油漆。
I’d prefer her not to tell Tom.
我不想让她告诉汤姆。
