　　形式二：而不是(raher than, instead of)

　　例1：(2009北京，E)

　　①Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment. ② Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather than creating a new spot.

　　题目：

　　The author thinks that a good campsite is one_____.

　　A. with easy access

　　B. used previously

　　C. with modern conveniences

　　D. far away from beaches

　　第二句中rather than表明选择营地时要使用人们之前用过的地方而不是创造一个新的营地。答案非常明确B。

　　例2：(2005北京，B)

　　●power tools rather than having to use muscle(肌肉)power

　　题目：

　　Which of the following describes a well-designed tool?

　　A. It’s kept close to the body.

　　B. It fully uses muscle power.

　　C. It makes users feel relaxed.

　　D. It’s operated with less force.

　　如果理解了rather than表示否定意义，那么在运用排除法做这道题时，B选项可以轻易排除。如果要得出正解，必须结合文中其它信息，此处只要理解rather than表示而不是即可。

　　例3：(2005北京，D)

　　①Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. ②Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.

　　题目：

　　What does the author try to argue in the passage?

　　A. Zoos are not worth the public support.

　　B. Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.

　　C. Zoos should treat animals as human beings.

　　D. Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.

　　在第二句中，作者使用instead of表达了不要支持动物园的意思，那么A选项正是这一句的同义改写，当选。这是一道主旨题，必然要结合其它信息选择，此处不再赘述。
