When must a person pay for the course?
The Saturday photography course is full, but a waiting list is open. Joining the list does not require payment. If a place becomes available, the office will email the first person on the list, who will have twenty-four hours to accept and pay. People who do not respond within that time will lose the offer, although they may ask to remain on the list.

参考答案
C. When accepting an offered place within twenty-four hours.
中文解析
等待名单和正式名额是不同状态。付款由收到名额后接受这一条件触发，不能只匹配 payment 一词。
逐项分析：依据与易错点
A · 不符合：As soon as they join the waiting list.
Joining…does not require payment 明确排除。
B · 不符合：Only after attending the first lesson.
文中没有先上课后付款安排。
C · 有依据：When accepting an offered place within twenty-four hours.
accept and pay 连在一起，时限是获得名额通知后的24小时。
D · 不符合：At the end of the waiting period regardless of an offer.
没有得到名额并不需要付费，regardless of an offer 扩大了要求。
