「不能再同意你更多」：別奢望英文腦了，談談英語母語人士的「思維模板」

語言學家 Eric Kellerman 曾經在1995 年時在 Crosslinguistic Influence: Transfer to Nowhere? 一篇論文中提出 transfer to nowhere 理論，在敘述雖然「文法、單字、發音」都沒有太大出錯，但整個聽起來就是不是母語人士的句子的現象。

的確，口說、寫作不是文法、語塊組合的集大成而已，背後有很多的表達習慣，我將它們稱作「思維模板」。而受到英文影響，我們中文已經用之自然的「我不能同意你更多」就是這樣的一個典型例子。

在描述一件事情的重要性時，他們很自然的會用出「我不能再更強調」(I can't overemphasize the importance of...) 就是一個思維模板。 單用字面理解可能還會造成誤會。

頂尖球員在得了冠軍時的賽後感言，每個人不約而同地用出 "If it were not for my team, ...." "But for my parents, ..." 表達「要不是...我沒有辦法」也是在這種情境下的思維模板。

有了被動字彙、主動字彙、語塊、基礎文法、發音後，思維模板會是你最後一哩路。在週一的直播，我將探討 #3D英文筆記術 跟「思維模板」間的結合，如何是英文學習中最重要的一環。

在那之前，你也可以先入手3D英文筆記術課程，週一直播一起結合起來！

#Abstract
Computing technology has been the backbone of our society. Its importance is hard to overemphasize. Today, we again confirm its extreme importance with recent advances in artificial intelligence and deep learning. Those emerging workloads impose an unprecedented amount of arithmetic complexity and data access beyond our existing computing systems can barely handle. Across the computing systems from data centers, to mobile, and to extreme implants will face a major challenge in achieving desirable speed, energy-efficiency, and accuracy for truly enabling intelligent systems. In this seminar, we will outline the important bottlenecks to designing ultra-low-power computing hardware for AI and ML workloads, notably the end of Moore’s Law and the memory wall problem. We will then discuss several approaches that our group has been working on, including in-memory computing, hybrid analog-digital computing, and digital multi-core accelerator, and nanowatt DVS hardware. We will introduce several test-chip prototypes and their measurement results.

分享一個有趣的用法：can't overemphasize...

「無法過分強調...」意思就是：某事實在太重要了，所以再怎麼樣強調它也不會顯得太過火。

我們來看一下例句：
I can't overemphasize the importance of being an active participant in your community.
成為你的社群裡的積極參與者真的非常重要。
（我再怎麼強調成為你的社群裡的積極參與者的重要性都不為過）。
