Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your response repeats the examiner's question instead of answering. Provide a direct answer (Yes/No) with a brief topic sentence and one or two supporting details. Keep it natural and concise, use correct grammar (e.g., “when I was a child”) and a linking word if adding a reason or example.

例: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle that my parents bought for me when I was seven, and I used it to ride to school and the park. Because it was light and easy to handle, I learned to ride quickly.

提案: Again you repeated the examiner's question and made a spelling/word error (“buys” instead of “bikes”). Answer directly with an opinion, then support it with a reason or example using a linking word (e.g., “because” or “for example”). Keep to at most five sentences and use vocabulary relevant to transport and popularity.

例: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short journeys and exercise. For example, in cities you can see dedicated bike lanes and bike-sharing schemes that make cycling convenient.

× Did you have a bike when you were child?

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?

The noun 'child' needs the definite article 'a' in this context because we refer to the general state of being a child. Omitting the article is incorrect in English. To improve, include the appropriate article ('a' or 'the') when referring to a singular, countable noun in similar contexts, e.g., 'when I was a child' or 'when you were a child.'

× Do you think buys are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The word 'buys' is a spelling/word-choice error; the intended noun is 'bikes.' This is not a grammatical tense or agreement issue but an incorrect word. Additionally, ensure the correct plural form 'bikes' matches the intended meaning. To improve, check spelling and vocabulary choices and read the sentence aloud to confirm the intended word is used; in this context the plural noun 'bikes' is correct.
