14、 far as Difficulties are nothing if we are not afraid of them.如果我们不怕困难,困难就算不了什么了。 We shall go there tomorrow unless it rains.除非下雨,我们明天就去那里。 = We shall go there tomorrow if it doesnt rain.So/As long as you work hard, you will succeed.只要你努力工作,你就一定能成功。In case I forget, please remind me about it .万一我忘了,
