　　【詞語點(diǎn)撥】rather than 與其；不愿；而不是。用于連接兩個(gè)并列成分，連接兩個(gè)名詞或代詞作主語時(shí)，謂語動詞應(yīng)與rather than 前面的名詞或代詞在人稱和數(shù)上保持一致

　　到目前為止,我和這些孩子們度過的時(shí)光非常有價(jià)值。

　　Government service can be a rewarding and secure career.

　　政府部門的工作可以很有回報(bào)，很有保障。

　　【語法點(diǎn)撥】動詞不定式可以作主語，位于句首。如果動詞不定式短語過長，為了避免句子頭重腳輕，可用 it 作形式主語，而將真正的主語動詞不定式短語后置，具體用法參見第17句。如：
