Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Improve grammar (past tense and passive), use clear sequence, reduce hesitation and repetition, and give one or two specific details. Start with a clear topic sentence in past tense, then add a brief supporting detail using a linking word (e.g., “but” or “however”).

Example: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I was very excited to ride it every day, but unfortunately it was stolen from outside my house when I was about nine. After that, I felt very upset and my parents bought me a new bike a few weeks later.

Suggestion: Make the answer more organized and specific: give a brief direct opinion, then use linking words (for example, “for example” or “especially”) to list clear places and reasons why bikes are popular. Avoid filler sounds and incorrect verb forms (use “riding” correctly in context).

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. For example, many people ride bikes to work and school because they are cheap and convenient, especially in cities where traffic is heavy. You also see cyclists on park paths and near markets.

× Yes I have one and I was so excited when I riding it but uh, suddenly it's stolen. Stole. It was so stole.

✓ Yes, I had one and I was so excited when I rode it, but suddenly it was stolen.

The student mixed present and past tenses and used incorrect verb forms. The event happened in the past, so use past tense consistently: 'have' -> 'had'; 'riding' (present participle) should be past simple 'rode'; passive 'it's stolen' is incorrect here — use past passive 'it was stolen'. Also remove fragmented words 'Stole. It was so stole.' Suggestion: tell the story entirely in past tense and use correct past verb forms. Grammar problem type ID: 6

× I was so excited when I riding it

✓ I was so excited when I rode it

After time expressions like 'when' referring to a past event, use the past simple 'rode' rather than the present participle 'riding'. Using 'riding' makes the sentence grammatically incorrect. Suggestion: replace verb+ing with past simple when describing completed past actions. Grammar problem type ID: 8

× suddenly it's stolen. Stole. It was so stole.

✓ but suddenly it was stolen

The student attempted a passive construction but used incorrect tense and word forms. 'It's stolen' (present) is inconsistent with past narrative; 'Stole' is an incorrect standalone verb; 'It was so stole' is ungrammatical. Use past passive 'it was stolen' to describe the event. Suggestion: use proper passive structure 'was/were + past participle' and keep tense consistent. Grammar problem type ID:21

× Yeah, I think so. I saw so many people that riding bike at the, uh, every, uh, kind of positions like the roads, the school and also, umm, any other places.

✓ Yeah, I think so. I saw so many people riding bikes on the roads, near schools, and in other places.

The student mixes structures and uses incorrect prepositions and noun forms. 'That riding bike' should be 'riding bikes' (plural) or 'who ride bikes'; 'at the every kind of positions' is ungrammatical — use 'on the roads, near schools, and in other places.' Also maintain past tense 'saw' with 'riding' as present participle in reduced relative clause 'people riding bikes'. Suggestion: use plural 'bikes' and clearer prepositions: on, near, in. Grammar problem type ID:6

× I saw so many people that riding bike

✓ I saw so many people riding bikes

The noun 'bike' should be plural when referring to many people each using a bicycle. Also the relative clause can be reduced: 'people who are riding bikes' -> 'people riding bikes'. Suggestion: use plural nouns when referring to multiple items or people.
