Which HSK 4 grammar points are most relevant to technology?

passive and complement are suggested here for practising technology contexts. The HSK 4 syllabus expects you to understand these patterns when they involve technology vocabulary.

What's the difference between HSK 3 and HSK 4 expectations on technology?

HSK 3 expects simple statements about technology (e.g., basic facts and short descriptions). HSK 4 raises the bar to "有一定复杂度" — handling extended contexts with opinions, comparisons, and reasoning. You'll need to express feelings (感受) and views (看法) about technology, not just describe them.
