Question

.______ Yancheng today is more beautiful now.Mr.Jackson said he would visit it ______ fourth time.
A.The;/ B.The;the C./;a D.The;a
为什么呢
序数词前不是用the吗

Answer 1

1.答案：D.
2.翻译：今日的盐城更加美丽了.Jackson先生说他将会再次参观它.
3.
1）如果单独用Yancheng做主语,则无须加任何冠词,因为它是一个专有名词.
但是此句中它被后面的today所修饰,特指“今日之盐城”,所以必须加上定冠词the.
2）the fourth time和a fourth time的区别如下：
the fourth time意思是“第四次”,但是该短语在句中不能单独做状语,必须使用for the fourth time才可以.
如：I'll visit Beijing for the fourth time tomorrow.
而a fourth time意思是“再一次”（当然从次数上说也是第四次）,而且它可以在句子单独充当状语.
如：I've failed three times,but I'll try a fourth time.
我已经失败了三次了,但是我会再试一次的.
