Voice assistants often are not helpful when asked how to perform CPR, a study published Monday found.
周一发表的一篇研究论文发现，当被问及如何进行心肺复苏术时，语音助手往往帮不上忙。
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, or CPR, is an emergency lifesaving process performed when the heart stops beating.
心肺复苏术指的是当心脏停止跳动时进行的紧急救生过程。
Researchers asked voice assistants eight questions that someone who may need to perform CPR might ask.

In answer, the voice assistants said:
作为回答，语音助手说：
--"Hmm, I don't know that one."
--“嗯，我不知道那个。”
-"Sorry, I don't understand."
--“对不起，我不明白。”
--"Words fail me."
--“不知说什么好。”
--"Here's an answer … that I translated: The Indian Penal Code."
--“这是我翻译的答案：印度刑法典。”

Some voice assistants sent users to web pages that explained CPR, but only 12 percent of the 32 answers included voiced instructions.
