Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be consistent with past tense, give a clearer topic sentence and add one brief supporting detail. Use linking words to make it coherent. Keep it within 2–4 sentences and avoid contractions that mix tenses (e.g., "I don't have" is present).

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because I hadn’t learned to ride. However, I often borrowed my friend’s bike to ride around the neighborhood, so I still enjoyed cycling occasionally.

제안: Make the answer more natural by using clearer phrasing and specific reasons or examples. Use linking words like "because" or "for example" and avoid redundant words (e.g., "most people usually" → pick one). Keep it concise and add one specific context to support your claim.

예시: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because they are cheap and convenient for short trips. For example, many people use bicycles to commute to work or to go to nearby markets, especially in crowded urban areas.

× Well, I remember that when I was a child, I don't have any bike because I didn't know how to ride a bike.

✓ Well, I remember that when I was a child, I didn't have a bike because I didn't know how to ride one.

The sentence mixes past context with present tense 'don't have'; this is a present tense issue. Change 'don't have' to past 'didn't have' to match 'when I was a child'. Also use 'a bike' (article) and replace the repeated noun with 'one' to avoid redundancy. Suggestions: use consistent past tense for events in the past and use 'one' to avoid repetition.

× Yes, bikes are popular in my country because most people usually give preference to bike instead of car for travelling to short distance.

✓ Yes, bikes are popular in my country because most people usually prefer bikes to cars for traveling short distances.

The original sentence misuses quantifiers/articles and comparative constructions. 'Give preference to' is grammatically okay but wordy; 'prefer' is more natural. Use plural nouns 'bikes' and 'cars' when speaking generally. Use 'to' with 'prefer' (prefer A to B). 'Travelling' vs 'traveling' spelling depends on variety; either is acceptable; use 'short distances' (plural) for generalization. Also 'a' before 'short distance' is needed if singular, but plural is more natural.
