这是现代大学习英语精度第一册UNIT2 Text A中的一段话
We were informed this morning that some neighborhood bully has been shaking this boy down for more than a month. The other guy was forcing him to take money out every week and hand it over.
今天早上大家得到公告,说附近有个恶棍一个月以来一直在勒索这个小孩子。那家伙一直逼着他每周从银行取钱交给他。
从翻译和上下文来看,The other与some neighborhood bully是指同一个人。但没找到the other的这种使用方法
这个句子只提到了二个人:some bully和this boy. this boy为特指的,泛指的some bully第三提准时自然就是the other guy.
