书上说,当一个名词受到 the first, the last 修饰时,后面要接不定式作定语。如:
He is always the first to come to the office and the last to leave.
但如果一个名词受到 the second, the third, the fourth…the next 等修饰呢?是不是也要后接不定式,因为 the second, the third, the fourth…the next 与 the first, the last 是“同类性质”的,对不对?
你的想法是对的。如:
He was the second to be chosen. 他是第二个被选上的人。
You are the second to make that mistake. 你是第二个犯这错误的人。
He is the fifth man to be killed in this way. 他是第五个这样死于非命的人。
She was the ninth minister to comeunder investigation for corruption. 她是接受贪污调查的第九位部长。
Miss Greenwas the next to arrive. 格林小姐是第二个到的。
The next tospeak was Mrs Fenshaw. 下一个发言的是芬肖夫人。
The next toarrive was a big black snake. 接着又来了一条大黑蛇。
