Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

We need to join the sentences:

"You will not succeed. You work harder."

The intended meaning is that success is possible only if the person works harder.

Using the conjunction "unless":

"You will not succeed unless you work harder."

Here, "unless" means "if not" and correctly expresses the condition required for success.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. unless.
