为什么初稿用a first draft of

I faxed a first draft of this article to him.

我将这篇文章的初稿传真给他了。

a first draft of this article 初稿，难道不是唯一的东西吗？of this article不能是把first draft限定成唯一的the吗？为什么这里还是用a？难道初稿有很多个？还是说“初稿”类似于一个copy，能有好多个copy？

你看一下COCA这个例句：

This' history' made work on the third version even more laborious. Prior paragraphs and former phrases from one or both first drafts haunt the writer's mind and make proper planning of the content more difficult. # The two first drafts were written in very convoluted language for the benefit of specialists with the necessary background, particularly in the field of psychopathology.

你读了这段话后有什么理解？

序数词的前面必须附以定冠词。如：the first, the second 等，而 a second ,

a third 等则是用作 another 的意思。（摘自《刘毅英语语法宝典》p.179）
