Grammar Points

由……共同……passive with 由 + jointlyHSK 4

“由” is used to show who performs an action, often in a formal or written passive-style structure. “共同” means “jointly / together,” so “由A和B共同……” means something is done jointly by A and B.

"并由特斯拉和SpaceX共同运营。"

"该厂将配备制造和测试各类芯片所需的全套设备。"

旨在……aimed atHSK 6

“旨在” is a formal expression meaning “to aim at,” “to be intended to,” or “with the goal of.” It is often followed by a verb phrase explaining the purpose of a plan, policy, or project.

"这项旨在最终为机器人、人工智能和太空数据中心制造自有芯片的宏伟计划将落户奥斯汀。"

尽管……但……although... still...HSK 5

This pattern expresses contrast. “尽管” means “although / even though,” and “但” means “but.” It shows that the second clause happens despite the situation in the first clause.

"尽管半导体行业正在增加产量,但其发展速度仍无法满足他预期的芯片需求。"

要么……要么……either... or...HSK 4

“要么……要么……” presents two alternatives, similar to “either... or...” in English. It is commonly used to show a forced choice between two options.

"要么我们建造‘太瓦级工厂’,要么我们就没有芯片可用。"

所需的……required/neededHSK 5

“所 + verb + 的” is a formal nominal structure. In “所需的,” it means “that is needed / required.” It modifies a noun and is common in written Chinese.

"该厂将配备制造和测试各类芯片所需的全套设备。"
