Help Marcus express his weekend preferences to his highly energetic friends who want to go hiking in the rain. Select ALL the sentences that are grammatically correct and natural.

The correct answers are I prefer staying in to going out and I would rather stay in than go out.

When talking about general preferences, we can use prefer + verb-ing + to + verb-ing.

When using would rather, we must use the bare infinitive (without "to") followed by than + bare infinitive.

Mixing these structures up (like "prefer to... than..." or "would rather... -ing") is a very common mistake, but Marcus got it right!
