常见错误
It raises the question of if we are safe.It raises the question of whether we are safe.在 the question of 后通常用 whether,不用 if;这里 whether 更符合正式的英语表达。
The algorithm has many biases.The algorithm has a lot of bias. / The algorithm is biased.bias 可以作可数名词。The algorithm has many biases. 可表示算法有多种偏见,语法正确;若强调总体偏见,可说 a lot of bias 或用 biased。
We need to regulate the technology more strong.We need to regulate technology more strongly.more strong 不正确;副词 strongly 修饰 regulate。泛指时,technology 前不需要冠词。
The technology has many advantages but also many dangers.Technology has many advantages but also many dangers.泛指科技时不用 the technology;但指某一特定技术时 the technology 可以正确。这里是泛指,因此用 Technology。
We should be careful with how we use the datas.We should be careful with how we use the data.日常英语里 data 常作不可数或单数集合名词;datas 不是标准复数形式。
AI can replace to humans in many tasks.AI can replace humans in many tasks.replace 是直接及物动词,后面直接接宾语,不需要 to。
