Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Give a direct, grammatically correct response in past tense and add one brief supporting detail. Use a topic sentence, correct verb tense, and one specific reason or short example. Keep it under five sentences and use a linking word if you add extra information.

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I lived in a small apartment and my parents thought it was unsafe to buy one. Because of that, I usually walked to school or took the bus.

제안: Answer directly and use present-tense when stating general opinions. Provide specific supporting details and use linking words (e.g., however, but, because). Avoid hesitations and correct vocabulary (e.g., “facilities” or “bike shops” instead of just “shops”). Keep it to a maximum of five clear sentences.

예시: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country, especially in my village. Because we live in a rural area with few bike shops and poor cycling paths, most people prefer walking or using motorbikes. However, bikes are more common in larger cities where there are better roads and bike lanes.

× No, I don't have.

✓ No, I didn't.

The examiner asked about possession in the past ('Did you have a bike when you were a child?'), so the student must use past tense. Using 'don't have' is present tense and mismatches the question. Use 'didn't' (did not) to indicate lack of possession in the past. Alternatively, 'No, I didn't have one.' would be more complete.

× Actually, I didn't think that so because, uh, we live in a village so we don't have too much, uh, shops.

✓ Actually, I don't think so, because we live in a village and we don't have many shops.

The examiner asked 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' which is present tense, so the response should be in present tense: 'I don't think so.' Using 'I didn't think' is past tense and mismatches the question. Also, 'too much shops' is incorrect because 'shops' is countable; use 'many shops.' Replace the repeated 'so' and filler words for clarity and use 'and' to connect clauses. Maintain present tense throughout the sentence.
