It is the first time that分句
在“It is/was/will be the first time that分句”结构中,当主句动词为is/will be时,that分句动词一律用现在完成体,引导词that可以省略。例如:
It is the first time I’ve been here.
Don’t forget, it’ll be the first time I’ve spoken in public.
当主句动词为was时,that分句动词通常用过去完成体。例如:
It was the first time she’d been at a summer school and she thoroughly enjoyed it.
