Hi Ziqiao,
A System Error is a C-level error and suggests that python itself is having
a problem.
In short, this is never supposed to happen. I ran into the same problem
recently after
upgrading my installation of python from 3.7.3 to 3.7.4. Downgrading to
3.7.3 fixed it for me.
For me, this cropped up on MacOS (Mojave) running macports python and on
Ubuntu 18.04 running
the stock python installation.
All the best,
David
