陷阱
⚠️automatic vs. autonomous:自动运行 vs. 独立自主
The government is drafting new regulations to govern the use of automatic vehicles on public roads by 2030.
政府正在起草新法规,以管理到2030年在公共道路上使用自动驾驶车辆。(自动驾驶用 autonomous,× automatic)
自动驾驶车辆(自主决策的车辆)用 autonomous vehicle(自主车辆),强调有独立判断能力;automatic vehicle 暗示按固定程序运行(如自动变速箱),× automatic vehicles(自主驾驶语境)→ ✓ autonomous vehicles
The government is drafting new regulations to govern the use of autonomous vehicles on public roads by 2030.
政府正在起草新法规,以管理到2030年在公共道路上使用自主驾驶车辆。
⚠️automatically(副词)不等于 automatically guaranteed(自动保证)
Completing the training programme does not automatically guarantee promotion, as performance reviews and seniority are also considered.
automatically guarantee = 一定会得到(= certainly guarantee,100%确定)
automatically 在此表示「自动推导出,不经额外程序」:does not automatically guarantee = 不能自动推出/不必然保证(逻辑上的自动关联,不是100%确定性);此句正确:完成培训不会「自动」等于晋升;automatically 常用于表达「不经额外步骤,直接推论」
完成培训课程并不会自动保证晋升,因为绩效评估和资历也在考量之中。(automatically = 不经额外程序,直接推论)
