### Describe the bug

TypeError: Couldn't cast array of type struct<answer: struct<unanswerable: bool, answerType: string, free_form_answer: string, evidence: list<item: string>, evidenceAnnotate: list<item: string>, highlighted_evidence: list<item: string>>> to {'answer': {'unanswerable': Value(dtype='bool', id=None), 'answerType': Value(dtype='string', id=None), 'free_form_answer': Value(dtype='string', id=None), 'evidence': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='string', id=None), length=-1, id=None), 'evidenceAnnotate': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='string', id=None), length=-1, id=None), 'highlighted_evidence': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='string', id=None), length=-1, id=None)}, 'unanswerable': Value(dtype='bool', id=None), 'answerType': Value(dtype='string', id=None), 'free_form_answer': Value(dtype='string', id=None), 'evidence': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='string', id=None), length=-1, id=None), 'evidenceAnnotate': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='string', id=None), length=-1, id=None), 'highlighted_evidence': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='string', id=None), length=-1, id=None)}

When I use _load_dataset()_ I get the error

`from datasets import load_dataset
datafiles = {'train': './data/train.json', 'validation': './data/validation.json', 'test': './data/test.json'}
raw_data = load_dataset("json", data_files=datafiles, cache_dir="./cache")
`
Detailed error information is as follows：

It is successful when I load the data separately

`raw_data = load_dataset("json", data_files="./data/train.json", cache_dir="./cache")`



### Steps to reproduce the bug

1.from datasets import load_dataset
2.datafiles = {'train': './data/train.json', 'validation': './data/validation.json', 'test': './data/test.json'}
3.raw_data = load_dataset("json", data_files=datafiles, cache_dir="./cache")

### Expected behavior

 Successfully load dataset

### Environment info

datasets == 2.6.1
pyarrow == 8.0.0
python == 3.8
