主句用would表示虚拟语气，只有e是明显的if从句的虚拟语气

poorleafes

in that从OG上看来是已经被摒弃了。

这里的if only不是虚拟语气，请看朗文词条：

if only is used to give a reason for something, although you think it is not a good one
eg: Media studies is regarded as a more exciting subject, if only because it's new.

但这里的if only 该如何翻译为好，还请知道的人指点。谢谢

那就是说宾语从句的that可以省略?

选项看上去都是错的- -!

请问A和B错在哪里呢？on the basis of 和on the grounds of的表达有误吗？
