Tom is excited about his thirteenth birthday. Its my birthday tomorrow. Can I have a birthday party? He asks his mother. “You dont need to have a party this year, Tom. You had one last year, and dont call your friends to come to our home. I think they must be busy,” says his mother.Tom is not happy. Next morning, he goes out of his bed for his breakfast and he sees some balloons are in the living room. And a big birthday cake is on the table. His friends and parents are all here. Happy birthday,Tom. This is for you. says his mother.
专家老师，我觉得文中的粗体字next morning应该改为the next morning（第二天）其后时态依旧可以保留一般目前时，可以理解为历史目前时。
当然，其后的时态用一般过去时更自然，易于新手同意。
盼望专家老师结合文本就我的理解给予剖析指导，十分感谢。
按传统语法，要表示非目前时间的“第二天早上”，一般要用 the next morning。但在现代英语中，也可以用 next morning（即省略 the）。如下面的内容摘自《柯林斯高级英语使用方法词典》：
If you want to say that something happened during the morning of the next day, you say that it happened the next morning, in the morning, next morning, or the following morning.
The next morning I got up early and ate my breakfast.
In the morning Bernard wanted to go out for fresh milk.
Next morning we drove over to Leysin.
The ship was due to sail the following morning.
