Youd better put on my coat.Shed better not play with the dog. had better have done sth表示与事实相反的结果，意为本来最好。You had better have come earlier21.10 would rather表示宁愿would rather dowould rather not dowould rather than 宁愿而不愿。还有would sooner, had rather, had sooner都表示宁愿、宁可的意思。If I have a choice, I had sooner not continue my studies at this school.I would rather stay here than go home. = I would stay here rather than go home.典型例题-Shall we go skating or stay at home?-Which _ do? A. do you ratherB. would you rather C. will you rather D. should you rather答案B。本题考查情态动词rather的用法，would rather +do sth 意为宁愿，本题为疑问句，would 提前，所以选B。21.12 情态动词的回答方式 问句肯定回答否定回答Need you?Yes, I must.No,I needntMust you?/dont have to. 典型例题1）-Could I borrow your dictionary?-Yes, of course, you_.
