再问大全3

3.   A collection of 38 poems by Phillis Wheatley, a slave, was published in the 1770’s, the first book by a Black woman and it was only the second published by an American woman.

(A) it was only the second published by an American woman

(B) it was only the second that an American woman published

(C) the second one only published by an American woman

(D) the second one only that an American woman published（E）

(E) only the second published by an American woman

看过前面大家的讨论了，发现问题集中在only的用法上，但我的疑问是：为什么second后面one是多余的呢？这不正和and前面的book平行吗？总感觉E少了one读上去怪怪的。请大家不吝赐教啊

再顶下～～

拜托，有哪位好心的前辈指点一下迷津

“the+序数词”可以作代词用的，再加one只会造成redundency。

另外楼上MM可以跟原来的贴，不必发新贴的。这样不但减少版区的工作量，而且也方便MM及他人的查询。

注意 second 前面有个 the. the second 就相当于名词了。

同理 the older and the younger, 不说 the older people and the younger people 吧。

是了，是了～～接受批评

感谢二位，茅塞顿开！

PS：如果没记错，ringchengMM是这月考试吧？准备得怎么样了？or 已经解脱了？
