42、经历，ago “以前”，“一年前”应表述成a year ago。4thinkthinking考查非谓语动词。think与其逻辑主语we之间是主动关系，应用动词ing形式在句中作状语，故将think改为thinking。5去掉is考查with复合结构。此处是with的复合结构，表示“随着天气越来越热”， weather和get之间存在主动关系，应用“with名词现在分词”结构，故去掉is。6theirmy考查代词。此处指“我”发现“我”的腿越来越沉，描述“我”的情况，故将their改为my。7because后加of考查介词。because引导从句，because of后接名词或动名词。句中lon
