html = etree.HTML(text)
result = html.xpath('//li[1]/a/text()')
print(result)#输出第一个超链接里面的内容
result = html.xpath('//li[last()]/a/text()')
print(result)#输出最后一个超链接的内容
result = html.xpath('//li[position()<3]/a/text()')
print(result)#输出位置小于3的a标签里面的内容
result = html.xpath('//li[last()-2]/a/text()')
print(result)#输出最后一个链接向前移动两个位置的a标签内容
'''

输出结果：
['first item']
