问题描述:

the chinese _______ the first to use paper money in the early part of the eleventh century.
A.is B.are C.was D.were
B和D里应该选择哪个,

正确答案是D。in the early part of the eleventh century暗示用过去式,Chinese单复数同形,但这里指的是中国人民。请采纳

既然后面提及了in the early part of the eleventh century,【在11世纪早期】,当然用过去时,如果没有过去时的话,可以作为客观事实,用一般现在时
望采纳,谢谢
