One day in February 1824, at his little house in Vienna, Austria, Ludwig van Beethoven sat back in his chair and smiled. The famous German composer’s ninth symphony was finally completed. Writing the piece had taken several years, and now the final notes had been added to the score.
complete :“圆满结束，彻底完成，竣工”，后面要接且只能接名词或代词，通常用来表示完成某个计划、理想、事业、工程、建筑、书籍及作品等，强调“完整”，含有从头到尾使其完全齐备，补充其不足，或不完整之处，使其成为一个完美的整体；
finish:“完成，结束”，普通用词，强调的是把事情“做完”了，不太在乎过程及结果。

At 54 years of age, he didn’t know that this would be his last symphony. As he proudly signed his name at the bottom of the page, Beethoven tried to imagine how people would respond when they heard it for the first time.
for the first time:引导的是并列从句,表示原因的语气很弱,一般是对结果作出推断性的补充说明或解释,不表示直接原因, for前多加逗号.
For the first time in my career, I was failing.
the first time:用作形容词一般修饰单数名词,修饰有few或数词修饰的复数名词时是把复数名词看作一个整体。first与基数词连用时,一般置于基数词前,但first引起的固定词组则应置于基数词之后。
