2. B.
   First of all
3. C.

Answer 1

C
试题分析：因为逗号前后都是句子，所以两个句子中间缺少连词，四个选项中只有C项是连词。At first首先，起初；First of all首先；The first time“第一次”连词后接句子；For the first time第一次，不是连词。故选C。
考点：考查含有first的短语的用法
点评：考查类似短语的用法是近几年高考的热点，需要考生平时注意牢记短语的用法区别。
即学即练：This was ______he appeared on the stage.
A. At first       B. First of all      C. The first time   D. For the first time
