× I love to gain variety of knowledge from different field.
✓ I love to gain a variety of knowledge from different fields.
The phrase 'variety of knowledge' requires the article 'a' before 'variety' to be grammatically correct. Also, 'field' should be plural 'fields' because knowledge comes from multiple areas. So, the correct phrase is 'a variety of knowledge from different fields.'
× I think they prioritize martial arts to library.
✓ I think they prioritize martial arts over the library.
The verb 'prioritize' is usually followed by 'over' when comparing two things. Also, 'library' needs the definite article 'the' because it refers to a specific concept. Therefore, the correct phrase is 'prioritize martial arts over the library.'
