Question

— Shall we enjoy the hot movie Embarrassed Mother online? It's quite popular.

— As a matter of fact, I prefer ______ the novel itself rather than ______ the film.

A.reading; watching B.to read; to watch C.to read; watch

Answer

C

【解析】

句意：——我们去网上看热门电影《囧妈》好吗?它很受欢迎。——事实上，我宁愿看这部小说本身也不愿看电影。

考查固定句式。reading/watching动名词，to read/to watch动词不定式，watch动词原形；根据题干I prefer ___ the novel itself rather than ___ the film.可知本句考查固定句型：prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.宁愿做……而不愿做……，I prefer to read the novel itself rather than watch the film. 我宁愿看这部小说本身也不愿看电影，故答案选C。
