核心问题
Does that mean that your team is top of the league?
top 为什么不带冠词,是否已变为形容词?
词典解答
top of 可以看作是 at the top of 的省略形式：
-
He is at the top of his class. 他名列全班之首。
-
He's at the top of his profession. 他在同行中首屈一指。
-
Our school had played very well during the past year, and before this match we were almost top of the league. 在过去的一年里，我们学校的战绩都很好。在这次比赛以前，我们差一点就是联赛的冠军了。
有些英语词典把此种用法的 top 看作是形容词：
-
He's top (of the class) again. 他又得了(全班)最高分。
-
Sam was top at science. 塞姆理科考第一。
