用法模式：
technological [noun]
常见错误：
Learners often confuse 'technical' and 'technological'. Use 'technological' when you mean something related to technology in general (e.g., 'technological change', 'technological progress'), and 'technical' when you mean detailed, specialized, or practical skills (e.g., 'technical problem', 'technical skills'). Another common mistake is saying 'technology progress' instead of the correct collocation 'technological progress'.
