Câu đúng:  C. But for the heavy snow, they wouldn't have been late for the meeting.

Giải thích:

Câu gốc: Nguyên nhân khiến họ đến muộn là do tuyết rơi dày.

Cấu trúc "But for" (= If it hadn’t been for...) diễn tả điều kiện trong quá khứ, mang ý nghĩa “Nếu không có… thì…”.

Câu C tương đương với "If it hadn’t snowed heavily, they wouldn’t have been late for the meeting."

Các câu sai:

B: Sai vì "Had it not snowed heavily" phủ định sai ý gốc.

D: Sai vì dùng điều kiện loại 2 (hiện tại) thay vì loại 3 (quá khứ).

Dịch:
