這題好像有廣泛的討論,
我也不確定哪個100%對.
不過B和C我會選C,
因為感覺上沒有必要用未來式.

此題on condition that應可看做if的用法...
本題句意：公司的有些財務官員只有當他們的名字不會出現在報導上才會出來說明。
if的子句中只有助動詞should可用...所以贊成用現在式就好...

歡迎指教！！

這題答案是A吧
大陸的大全和我在登峰補習給的答案都是A
省略助動詞should
C錯在要用過去式，現在是邏輯不合

condition的用法When you agree to do something on condition that something else happens, you mean that you will only do it if this other thing also happens.

例題:He spoke to reporters on condition that he was not identified.
