In my opinion,life in the twenty-first century is much easier than _______.

A.that used to be                                              B.it is used to

C.it was used to                                                D.it used to be

D


解析:

(than)it used to be是比較狀語(yǔ)從句，it指上文中的life，used to be表示“過(guò)去是”。根據(jù)所提供的情景“l(fā)ife in the twenty-first century is much easier than”可判斷出表示“以我看來(lái)，21世紀(jì)的生活比過(guò)去容易”。be used to后接動(dòng)詞+ing形式作賓語(yǔ)，表示“習(xí)慣于”，其主語(yǔ)一般是表示“人”的名詞或代詞。
