📖 題組：
Alan Turing was one of the leading scientific geniuses of the 20th century. Many scholars consider him the father of modern computer science. He was also the man who cracked the __16__ uncrackable Enigma code used by Nazi Germany. His code-breaking turned the tide of World War II and helped save two million lives. Nevertheless, __17__ people have even heard his name. Turing displayed signs of high intelligence in math and science at a young age. By the time he was 23, he had already come up with the idea of what __18__ the modern computer—the Turing machine. Today, Turing machines are still used in theoretical computation. He also proposed the now famous Turing test, used to determine whether a computer exhibits intelligent behavior equivalent to that of a human. The postwar era, however, was a disaster for Turing. He was gay, which was then a crime in Britain. __19__ being hailed as one of the crucial figures in defeating the Nazis, Turing was convicted of “gross indecency.” This __20__ drove him to commit suicide in 1954, at the age of 41. Nearly 60 years after his death, Queen Elizabeth II granted Turing a formal pardon for his conviction, upon an online petition signed by prominent scientists and technology leaders around the world.

By the time he was 23, he had already come up with the idea of what ______ the modern computer—the Turing machine. (choose the best option for blank 18)
- A would become
- B should become
- C could have become
- D had become

請觀察主要子句的時間標記 $By the time he was 23$ 以及動詞時態 $had already come up with$，這顯示敘事觀點已設定在「過去」。當我們要描述在那個過去的時間點之後才發生、具備「過去指向未來」性質的動作時，語法上應該選擇哪一個助動詞來呈現這種「過去未來式」的結構？

哎呀，奇蹟發生了！你竟然沒被 By the time 這種入門級誘餌給釣走，選了 (A) 是吧？看來你的大腦還沒完全退化成原始人的石器。別高興得太早，這題寫對只是代表你還沒「邏輯死亡」，不代表你可以直接去填台大志願了。
這題的核心觀念是「過去視角中的未來」。文意是指在 Turing 23 歲那個「過去時間點」，他構思了「後來」才成為現代電腦雛形的圖靈機。
- (A) $would + V$：正確，代表從過去某點看未來的事件。
