题目分析：
略。
选项分析：
A选项：In addition to being China's first administrators的逻辑主语必然是主句的主语。本选项中主句的主语为the first literate culture in East Asia。在逻辑上，作为中国第一个管理者的应该是“商”这个时代，而并不应该是第一本文学巨著。
B选项：本选项错误同选项(A)。
C选项：“商”是一个复数名词，所以应该用are well known，这点可以从未划线部分中看出的。in the sense that they developed a coherent bureaucracy for their empire中出现了复数代词they和their，他们均指代商朝，从此可知the Shang是一个复数名词。
D选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
E选项：本选项有两处错误。第一，并列连词and身后没有谓语动词，必然其谓语动词和and身前的谓语动词相同（只有完全一样的东西，才可以省略）。即，补全则有：
the Shang were well known for xxx
在逻辑上，商朝是一直著名于制作铜器，而不仅仅是在“过去”著名于制作铜器。因此，应改为and are well known for。
第二，单数代词its不能指代复数名词Shang。
In English, collective nouns for ethnic groups / families/dynasties / proper names for sports teams, etc, will be plural (unlike other collective nouns):
The Welsh have delightful accents.
The Medici were avid art collectors.
The Heat (basketball team) play in Miami.
So in this sentence, "the Shang" must be plural. Eliminate C.
In E, "and" should connect two verbs. However, "and well known" is a participial modifier. This isn't parallel.
The correct answer is D.
