78. Fossils of the arm of a sloth found in Puerto Rico in
1991, and dated at 34 million years old, made it the
earliest known mammal of the Greater Antilles Islands.
(A) sloth found in Puerto Rico in 1991, and dated at
34 million years old, made it the earliest known
mammal of
(B) sloth, that they found in Puerto Rico in 1991, has
been dated at 34 million years old, thus making
it the earliest mammal known on
(C) sloth that was found in Puerto Rico in 1991, was
dated at 34 million years old, making this the
earliest known mammal of
(D) sloth, found in Puerto Rico in 1991, have been
dated at 34 million years old, making the sloth
the earliest known mammal on
(E) sloth which, found in Puerto Rico in 1991, was
dated at 34 million years old, made the sloth the
earliest known mammal of

答案选D，我选E，E错是因为was的数不对。
1，如果E是were是不是比E好呢，我觉得一般过去时比较好
2，D用分词making来修饰完成时have been dated可以吗？

不是我说，要是想把E改对了，估计长得就跟D差不多了。。。
什么时候断定的年代没有指出，只是说了发现年代是1991，也许人家刚刚断定也不一定，不过用过去式却是精确一些，当然如果把年代当做一个客观存在，现在时也不错，所以不能根据此点判断。E出现了两个动词，要把make换成非谓语，就跟D一样了，最后一个词，of不准确，哪个动物不是属于那个岛，而是生活在那个岛，明显on好些

谢谢lonelyorchid, 但是现在分词可以用来修饰完成时吗？

其实是现在分词作状语
你在网上查查分词作状语吧

这个地方用现在完成时好，因为date 是“现在”被date的。
