Solution
The correct option is D open Let’s examine the sentence: “The United Kingdom and France made China ____ its doors to European drug sellers in 1860.” The use of ‘made’ suggests that the sentence is of past tense. The sentence is also in active voice. It requires a verb that goes with ‘made.’ Of all the options, only Option C can be used here with ‘made’ and so that is the correct answer. Other options cannot be used as they would make the sentence meaningless.
