come first 首当其冲

come first 字面含义为“第一个到来”，因此表示最重要的东西。如果是工作狂则用 Work comes first,如果是医生则用 Patients come first。相反，如果是问对方什么是最重要时，就可以用 What comes first?

例句：

You have a family. Home has to come first for you.

你有个家庭，对你来说家庭就是最重要的。

You always come first with me. Do I still come first with you?

对我来说，你总是最重要的。那我还是你最珍惜的人吗？

I mean, for me, the client comes first.

我是说，对我来说，顾客至上。

对话：

A: His children are always successful in school.

他的孩子总能在学校里取得优异的成绩。

B: The children's education comes first.

孩子的教育工作是最重要的。
