Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is short and direct, which is fine, but to score higher you should expand briefly with a topic sentence and one supporting detail. For example, say why you didn’t have one or mention an alternative (e.g., walked, used public transport, or borrowed bikes). Use one linking phrase if needed and keep it under five sentences.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. Instead, I usually walked to school because it was close to my home, and my parents preferred I use public transport for longer trips.

提案: Your answer is clear and relevant but a bit repetitive. Improve by giving a concise topic sentence, then add a specific supporting detail (reason, statistic, or example) using linking words to make it coherent. Avoid repeating the same idea. Keep answers natural and within five sentences.

例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short trips. For example, many people use motorbikes to commute to work, and I also own a bike that I use for errands and weekend rides.

× People buy bikes and ride bikes too.

✓ People buy bikes and ride them too.

The original sentence repeats the noun 'bikes' unnecessarily. This is not a grammar rule from the provided list exactly, but replacing the repeated noun with the pronoun 'them' improves naturalness and avoids redundancy. Use 'them' to refer back to 'bikes' already mentioned. Suggestion: use pronouns to avoid repetition and make speech more fluent. Note: This correction uses 'them' (pronoun) which matches the existing plural noun; ensure pronoun reference is clear.

× I do have one bike with me now.

✓ I have one bike now.

The phrase 'I do have' is grammatically correct but emphatic and unnecessary in this context. Removing 'do' produces a more natural statement. Also 'with me' is redundant when saying 'I have one bike now.' Suggestion: use the simple present 'I have' for a neutral factual statement. If emphasis is intended, 'I do have' is acceptable.
