rather than 的用法有哪些
rather than 是一个并列连词
1. rather than 与would 连用时，构成“would rather...than...”句式，意思是“宁愿……而不愿……”，表示主观愿望，即在两者之中选择其一。
例如：She'd rather die than lose the children. 她宁愿死也不愿失去孩子们。
2. rather than 不与would连用时，表示客观事实，意为“是……而不是……;与其……不如……”。
它连接的并列成分可以是名词、代词、形容词、介词(短语)、动名词、分句、不定式、动词等：
(1) 连接两个名词或代词
He is an explorer rather than a sailor. 与其说他是一个海员，不如说他是一个探险者。
You rather than I are going to go camping. 是你而不是我要去要野营。
注意：rather than 连接两个名词或代词作主语时，谓语动词应与rather than 前面的名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致。
(2) 连接两个形容词
The sweater she bought was beautiful rather than cheap. 与其说她买的这件羊毛衫便宜不如说它漂亮。
(3) 连接两个介词(短语)或动名词
We will have the meeting in the classroom rather than in the great hall. 我们是在教室里开会，不是在大厅里。
She enjoys singing rather than dancing. 她喜欢唱歌，而不喜欢跳舞。
(4) 连接两个分句
We should help him rather than he should help us. 是我们应该帮助他而不是他应该帮助我们。
(5) 连接两个不定式
I decided to write rather than (to) telephone. 我决定写信而不打电话。
注意：rather than 后接不定式时，不定式可以带to，也可以不带to, 如上句。但rather than位于句首时，则只能接不带to 的不定式。如：Rather than allow the vegetables to go bad, he sold them at half price. 他唯恐蔬菜烂掉，把它们以半价卖掉了。
(6) 连接两个动词
He ran rather than walked. 他是跑来的，而不是走来的。
注意：这里rather than 后用了walked，而没有用walk，表示客观事实，而不是主观愿望。如果换成walk，则作“宁愿……而不愿 ……”解。

四、学会knowledge的用法了吗？来做个小测试吧~

他的知识和经验与日俱增。
rather than 怎么区分连词还是介词用法呢?
要从句意上理解，这句话中如果把rather than当作连词，那么这句话意思无法成立，rather than have to sit in a special area.这里用have那么就是和谓语allow并列，把并列成分提取出来This would have to sit in a special area.那么显然this不能have to sit in a special area的主语，它的主语应该是hearing-inpaired customers;如果用rather than to have to sit in a special area,那么是和宾补to enjoy the company of their hearing friends并列，把并列成分提取出来this would allow hearing-impaired customers to have to sit in a special area，意思变成允许听力障碍的顾客坐在特定区域，都与想表达的意思不符，这里并没有允许的概念，所以这里rather than having to sit in a special area在这里是个介词短语作比较状语。我们理解一个句子要从语法逻辑和语义逻辑两个方面入手，两方面都符合逻辑才能称为一个合适的句子。

状语从句,定语从句,宾语从句
结构图示
句子分解
句中有五个谓语动同:remains, are ignoring, implies, must shop和hold。根据从句引导词，句子可划分为:
A. While the conversation around our environment and our responsibility toward it remainscentered on shopping bags and straws
while引导让步状语从句,从句的主语为the conversation。arund our enionment and ourresponsibility toward it 为其后置定语, it代指environment,谓语remains是系动词，centered为表语,on shopping bags and straws 是状语。
B. we're ignoring the balance of power
主句是“主谓宾"句型。
C. that implies
that引导定语从句,限定the balance of power.
D. that as“consumers" we must shop sustainably，
定语从句中嵌套that引导的宾语从句,位于动词implies后。
E. rather than as “eitizens" hold our govermments and industries to account to push for real .systermie change.
rather than引导比较状语从句.前后句子结构一致,因此从句中出现了主语的省略,与as“consumers" we must shop sustainably 共享主语we,补充完整应为as“citizens" we hold our govermments...
参考译文
尽管围绕环境和我们对环境所负责任的讨论仍然集中在购物袋和吸管上,但我们忽略了权力的平衡，即作为“消费者”,我们必须可持续购物.而非作为“公民”,要求我们的政府和企业负责,以推动真正的系统性变革。
