1. for the first time在句子中可以作状语表示第一次,那么the first time也可以吗?比如 I come here for the first time.中这个for 可以省略吗?

【答】for the first time 是一个独立使用的介词词组,在句中作时间状语。for 不可省略或漏掉。


2. the first time+从句这个从句可以理解为状语从句或者定语从句吗?

【答】the first time 有两个用途:

(1)直接用作连词,引导时间从句。由名词time 构成的连词归纳:

the time, the first time, next time, any time, every time,each time, the last time, from the time, by the time 等,都可以作连词用,引导时间状语从句。

The first time I climbed onto the wall, I felt nervous.

我第一次爬到墙上去时,感到胆怯。   

Every time I catch a cold, I have pain in my back. 

我每次感冒背就痛。

Any time you come to London do look me up.  

你无论什么时候到伦敦来,一定要来看我。

I recognized you the minute I saw you. 

我一见你就认出了你。     

Next time you come, you will see the scientist. 

你下次来时就会见到那位科学家。    

You may come back any time you want to. 

你想回来随时可回来。    

Each time the tourist traveled by boat he got seasick. 

这位旅客每次坐船行时都晕船。    

The last time she saw James, he was lying in bed. 

她最后一次看詹姆斯时,他躺在床上。    

The truck will have arrived by the time you have all the things packed up. 

到你把一切东西都捆好时,卡车也就来了。

(2)用于以下结构:

It is the first time that...

It was the first time that...

例句:

It is the first time that Mr Smoth has visited China.

It was the first time that Mr Smoth had visited China.

【结构分析】

1. It is the first time 为主句,that Mr Smoth has visited China 为定语从句,修饰the time,that为关系副词,可以省略。因此,我们常说:It is the first time Mr Smoth has visited China.

2. 常用的变式:This (It, That) is the first (second, third) time that ...

【时态分析】

一、It is the first time that...跟与“现在完成时”连用,体现了“现在完成时”的另一个特征:用来表示“人以前的经历”。意味着“从过去某个时间到说话时的经历总结”,也可能是人一生所经历,这跟现在完成时的“动作发生在过去,但对现在产生影响”有关,强调次数和经历。例如:

It is the first time...举例:

It is the first time that Mrs Obama has given her approval to the work of a single company.这是奥巴马夫人第一次对一个独立公司的工作给予称赞。

It is the first time that we have talked about this issue face to face.这是我们第一次面对面地谈论到这件事情。

It is the first time that I have received your letter.那是我第一次收到你的来信。

It is the first time that he has performed on such a big stage.这是他第一次在如此大的舞台上表演。

It is the first time that she has ever lived in a city in her entire life.这是第一次她完全的生活在城市里。

It is the first time that I have been invited to attend such an important meeting.这是我第一次被邀请参加这么重要的会议。

This is the first time...举例:

This is the first time in my life that I have taken part in such a grand celebration.这是我有生以来第一次参加如此盛大的庆典。

Although it is not an official Olympic event, this is the first time that Wushu has come so close to the Olympics.虽然这不是官方奥运比赛,但这是第一次武术距离奥运这么近。

But this is the first time that we’ve been able to look at everything.但这是我们第一次看到全景。

This is the first time that he has written in English.这是他第一次用英语写作。

It is the first time that China has objected to manoeuvres in the area.这是中国第一次反对在此区域举行的军事演习。

That is the first time...举例:

That is not the first time that the earthquake potential of a fault has been underestimated.这并不是第一次低估地震的潜力。

That is the first time they have experienced that.这是他们第一次经历那件事。

二、同理,It was the first time,主句用“一般过去时”,那么从句应当使用“过去完成时”,体现“过去的过去”这个语法特征:表示“截止到过去某个时间之前的动作经历”。例如:

It was the first time that she had sung in public. 那是她首次公开演唱。

It was the first time that she had lived independently. 那是她第一次独立生活。

It was the first time that he had wept in nineteen years. 那是他19年来第一次流泪。

It was the first time that I had written with real passion. 这是我第一次满怀热情写作。

It was the first time that the black boy had tasted freedom. 这是黑人男孩第一次尝到自由的滋味。

It was the first time that little Franz had listened so attentively. 那是小弗朗士第一次如此用心地听讲。

This was the first time he had confronted an armed robber. 这是他第一次面对一个武装劫匪。

This was the first time I had been treated with such respect. 我是第一次受到这样的礼遇。

She was astonished; this was the first time she had heard of such things. 她大吃一惊;她第一次听说过这样的事。

This was the first time I had seen such a lot of snow. 我第一次见过这么大的雪。


3.the first time + that或者when,其中that是关系副词相当于when的用法那么that和when可以省略吗?

【答】the first time 如果用作连词,根据简练原则,之后一般不加关系副词that 或when。例如:

The first time I climbed onto the wall, I felt nervous.

我第一次爬到墙上去时,感到胆怯。   

在It/This/That is the first time 结构中,that 可以省略。前面有讲解和例句:

It is the first time 为主句,that Mr Smoth has visited China 为定语从句,修饰the time,that为关系副词,可以省略。因此,我们常说:It is the first time Mr Smoth has visited China.


4. 区别the first time+从句,是状语从句还是先行词是time的定语从句的方法是看句子成分比如The last time i saw Jonathan was Thursday evening 这句话中The last time是主语那么后面的必定是省略that或者when的定语从句,我这么分析是否正确呢?

【答】“第一次” 和 “在星期四晚上”,两个概念不等对。需要在Thursday evening 之前加介词on。

The last time (主语)I saw Jonathan (定语从句)was (系动词)on Thursday evening.(表语)

1. or the first time在句子中可以作状语表示第一次,那么the first time也可以吗?比如 I come here for the first time.中这个for 可以省略吗?

介词+名词---->转化成副词结构,如 in the morning


2. the first time+从句这个从句可以理解为状语从句或者定语从句吗?

the first time 名词可作连词用,它类似于when, as soon as之类


3. the first time+that或者when,其中that是关系副词相当于when的用法那么that和when可以省略吗?

这个要看后文,看这个time是什么哥情况

总体泛泛而言,不是可以,是要省略。2里讲了,the first time既然是做连词用,你干嘛要双重连接词?极个别的情况,the first time+that可能会见到,但毕竟不用睬它。


4. 区别 the first time+从句,是状语从句还是先行词是time的定语从句的方法是看句子成分比如The last time I saw Jonathan was Thursday evening 这句话中The last time是主语那么后面的必定是省略that或者when的定语从句,我这么分析是否正确呢? 感谢各位专家的解答!

英文的句子,是两个或多个句子“拼凑”起来的,你分析句子,数数动词的个数,再数数连接词的个数,自然就可以搞定。连接词为=n, 则动词=n+1

The last time I saw Jonathan was Thursday evening

比如你这句,两个动词,那你找个地方,给它插进一个连接词就可以了。

记住一个动词代表一句
