【Skill 7】Understand the necessary condition when there are conditions expressed by ば (if) and ても (even if).
When there are conditions expressed by ば (if), たら (provided) and 場合 (in the case), and conditions expressed by ても (even if) and でも (whether), listen for the conditions expressed by ば (if), たら (provided), and 場合 (in the case). The conditions expressed by ば (if), たら (provided) and 場合 (in the case) are the necessary conditions.
In the following audio, the necessary condition is 論文に名前があがっている (their name is mentioned), which is stated before ば (if). It is not 実際には論文を書いていない (they did not actually write the paper), which is stated before ても (even if).
■ 実際には論文を書いていなくても、そこに名前があがっていれば、その人を著作者とみなします。 (Even if they did not actually write the paper, if their name is mentioned, they are considered the author.)
