35、年前。ago 立足现在，表示从现在起的 2年前；before 立足过去，表示从过去某一时刻起的 2年前。此处应用 ago。第三处：考查副词。easy 是形容词，意为“容易的” ； easily 是副词，意为“容易地”。此处应用副词修饰动词词组“got tired” ，意为“很容易劳累” 。故用 easily。第四处：考查定语从句。根据句型结构分析可知，此处引导非限制性定语从句，不能用 that引导，所以用 which指代前面的整句话；或者在 that前加 and，构成 and连接的两个并列句。故用 which/and that。8第五处：考查连词。unless 意为“除非” ，相当于 if.n
