Answer 1

The correct option is A <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> is the Euro

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The option ‘is the Euro’ is correct because the Euro being the currency in Greece is a fact that doesn't change with time, place, or speaker. Hence, it is reported in the present tense.
