Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is clear and directly answers the question, but it is short and lacks supporting details. To improve, give one or two specific details (e.g., how old you were, where you rode it, who taught you) and use a linking word to expand naturally. Keep responses under five sentences.

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, and it came with training wheels until I was about six. For example, my parents pushed me around the neighborhood every weekend, which helped me learn to balance and ride without the extra wheels.

提案: Your answer addresses the question but is vague and grammatically slightly off (“it” should be “they” or “cycling”). Improve by giving a direct topic sentence, then add specific supporting information such as who uses bikes, common purposes (commuting, exercise), or a brief reason. Use linking words (because, for example) to make it coherent.

例: Yes, I think bikes are very popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, students and office workers often cycle to work in the morning, and cities have been adding bike lanes to encourage cycling.

× I do think it is a popular thing in my country.

✓ I do think bicycles are popular in my country.

The original sentence uses 'it' to refer to 'bikes', which is a plural noun; this causes a mismatch in number and impersonal reference. Also 'thing' is vague and informal. Use the plural noun 'bicycles' (or 'bikes') with the plural verb 'are'. Suggestion: refer to the subject explicitly and match verb number, e.g. 'bicycles are'.
