Resumen de la lección
Read the sample sentence and notice how 首先……其次……最后…… works in the frame: 首先 A,其次 B,最后 C.
This pattern is useful in presentations, writing, instructions, and analysis. 首先 starts the sequence, 其次 adds the next point, and 最后 closes it. Do not mix it with 一来...二来..., which is mainly for two reasons and is more conversational.
