He was rushed to the airport in time to catch the one plane that might enable him to reach his dying father.


one 在这是做形容词吗?意思是惟一的?

大家做个比较:

1. a plane:一架飞机(泛指)

2. the plane:那架飞机(特指)

2. one plane:一架飞机(强调不是两架)

3. the one place:那一架飞机(特定的一架,但不是唯一)

4. the only plane:唯一的飞机

5. the only one plane:唯一的一架飞机

例子4, 5 意思相同。
