first reporter后为什么用permitted而不是to be permitted?

【问】

I was the first Western TV reporter ____ (permit) to film a special unit caring for pandas rescued from starvation in the wild.(2016年高考全国卷1)

答案:permitted

问题:reporter前有the first修饰,为什么答案不是to be permitted?

【答】

的确,有first、last、only、next等修饰的名词,后面通常用不定式做定语。
