Revision
Tell the story:
Yu Gong Moves a mountain.
Once upon a time, there was a very old man. There were two mountains near his house. They were so big and high that it took a long way to walk to the other side.
The old man told his family that they should all helped him to move the mountains.
Yu Gong said they could put them into the sea because it’s big enough to hold everything.
Yu Gong and his family began to move some of the soil and stone into the sea.
One day a man saw Yu Gong and his children when they were working on moving the mountains.
He told Yu Gong that he could never do it because he was old and weak.
As soon as the man finished talking, Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died.
He said his family would live and grow, but the mountains could not get bigger. So Yu Gong and his family kept on digging day after day and year after year.
Finally, a god was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent two gods to take the mountains away.

:
One can’t learn a foreign language well unless he studies hard.
不下苦功夫是学不好外语的。
I will not go unless I hear from him.
如果我不收到他的来信,我就不去。
Using

if ... not
,而不用
unless
。
如
:

。
指紧接着发生的两个短动作,主、从句都用一般过去时。
He took out his English books as soon as he sat down.
