it was announced that only when还需要部分倒装吗

It was announced that only when the fire was under control ______to return to their homes.

A. the residents would be permitted

B. had the residents been permitted 

C. would the residents be permitted

D. the residents had been permitted

我记得only+状语置于句首会引起部分倒装,但这道题中还需要部分倒装吗?我选的是A,但答案给的是C。所以就很纠结。

only+状语置于句首会引起部分倒装——这个句首是指自身句子的句首。按下面这个句子结构去理解即可:

Only when the fire was under control would the residents be permitted to return to their homes.

如果把它变为主语从句或宾语从句,倒装不受影响:

It was announced that ...(主语从句仍然使用倒装语序)

They announced that ...(宾语从句仍然使用倒装语序)
