Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: The student misunderstood the question and repeated it as a question rather than answering. Provide a direct, past-tense topic sentence stating whether you had a bike, then add one or two specific supporting details (e.g., who bought it, how often you rode it, a memorable place you rode). Use linking words like "so" or "because" if needed. Keep it natural and within 3–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small blue bicycle my parents bought me for my seventh birthday, and I rode it to school most days. Because our neighborhood was quiet, I felt safe practicing tricks with my friends on weekends.

提案: The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Begin with a clear opinion (Yes/No/Partly) and follow with specific reasons or examples, using linking words such as "because", "for example", or "however" to connect ideas. Mention who uses bikes (students, commuters), and any influencing factors (traffic, bike lanes, culture) to make the response informative and natural within 3–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students and commuters. For example, many cities have dedicated bike lanes and affordable shared-bike schemes, so people often choose bikes to avoid traffic. However, in rural areas cars are still more common because distances are longer.

× Do you have a bike when you were a child?

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

The examiner asked a past-time question using 'when you were a child', so the verb should be in the simple past. The student's sentence uses present simple 'Do you have', which conflicts with the past time reference. Use 'did' + base verb for past-tense yes/no questions. Suggestion: match the verb tense to the time expression (e.g., 'Did you have...').

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is already correct: the examiner asked about a general present opinion, so present simple 'Do you think' plus present 'are popular' is appropriate. No change is needed. Suggestion: keep present simple for general opinions about current situations.
