Question

It is the first / second time.... that....

It is the first / second time.... that....后面是家过去时还是完成时啊

那当is 变was时呐？后面加什么时态？It was the first / second time.... that....

这个句子对不对：It is the first time that I saw you.

谁还能给点例子啊··谢谢啊

Answer 1

一般说来，在It [This] is the first time＋that-结构中，that-从句通常用现在完成时：

It’s the first time (that) the boy has spoken to a foreigner. 这个男孩还是第一次同外国人说话。

It’s the first time that she’s seen an elephant. 这是她第一次见到大象。

有时以上结构中的 first 也可换成 second，third，fourth 等；其中的time也可换成其他名词：

It’s the first month that he has lived here. 这是他第一个月住在这里。

This is the second cigarette that he has smoked today. 这是他今天抽的第二支烟。

若It was the first time that-结构中，that-从句通常用过去完成时，有时也用一般过去时，有时若有包括现在在内的时间状语，偶尔还可用现在完成时：

I was lucky because that was the second time I (had) visited Japan that year. 我很幸运，那是我那年第二次访问日本。

It was the first time this year that he hadn’t [hasn’t] worked on a Saturday. 这是今年来他第一次在星期六不上班。
