26、系代词that而不能用which。4to_praise解析:考查非谓语动词。结合语境可知此处应用不定式作目的状语,所以填to praise。be used to do sth.“被用来做某事”。5The解析:考查冠词。句中Li Bai作poet的同位语,而介词短语from the Tang dynasty是后置定语,所以空处应填定冠词The表特指。6richness解析:考查名词。空前and一词决定其前后单词词性相同,and前prosperity (繁荣)是名词,所以空处应该也是名词,形容词rich的名词是richness。7were_called解析:考查动词的时态和语态。sth.be ca
