5. 其后不能直接跟if引導的從句，遇此情況需借助it，即說成I’d prefer it if…（我希望……）。如：

I would prefer it if you didn’t tell anyone. 我希望你別告訴任何人。

I would prefer that you did not mention my name. 我倒希望你不要提及我的名字。

比較以下同義表達：

我倒希望你不要一個人去那里。

正：I should prefer that you did not go there alone.

正：I should prefer it if you did not go there alone.

正：I should prefer you not to go there alone.

6. 若加強語氣，可在其前使用much, very much, far等修飾語。如：

I far prefer swimming to cycling. 我喜歡游泳遠勝于騎自行車。

We much prefer the country to the town. 我們喜歡鄉下，不怎么喜歡城里。
