Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be concise and use correct tense and grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence (e.g., "No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.") then give one or two specific, well-linked reasons. Avoid repeating the same idea and long clauses. Use past tense for childhood and simpler connectors like "because" or "so". Also correct countability ("a bike") and prepositions ("live in Macau").

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I grew up in Macau, where cycling on the roads is generally not allowed because the streets are narrow and traffic is heavy, so it was considered unsafe. As a result, my family preferred walking or taking public transport instead.

제안: Answer directly, then contrast clearly using linking words. Avoid fillers ("umm") and grammar mistakes (use "people do" not "does"). Keep to 2–3 sentences: topic sentence + one specific reason or example. Use precise vocabulary (e.g., "urban areas," "commute").

예시: Yes, bikes are still popular in China. In many mainland cities, people use bicycles or electric bikes for short trips and commuting because they are affordable and convenient for shopping and getting around traffic-congested areas.

× Unfortunately I don't because the place where I'm living is Macau, where pedestrians aren't allowed to ride their bike on the roads because it's way too dangerous for citizens to do so because our roads for the cars are very limited so we're all not recommended to have a bike.

✓ Unfortunately I didn't, because the place where I was living is Macau, and pedestrians aren't allowed to ride bikes on the roads. It is too dangerous and our roads for cars are very limited, so we are not recommended to have a bike.

This sentence has multiple conjunction and sentence structure issues (Grammar problem type ID 16). It uses multiple 'because' clauses and 'so' awkwardly, causing run-on and unclear relationships. Also 'I'm living' and 'don't' conflict with past context; the examiner asked about childhood, so past tense should be used. Suggestions: split into shorter sentences, use 'and' to connect related ideas, use past simple ('didn't', 'was living'), plural 'bikes', and rephrase 'we are not recommended to have a bike' to 'we are not recommended to have bikes' or 'it is not recommended that we have bikes.'

× Yes, I do. Umm, I came from China. So although Macau doesn't have many pedestrians that own a bicycle themselves, but I believe that in mainland China most people, uh umm and average people does own a bike. So because it's more convenient for them to go for groceries for.

✓ Yes. I am from China. Although Macau doesn't have many pedestrians who own bicycles, I believe that in mainland China most ordinary people do own a bike because it is more convenient for them to go grocery shopping.

Contains present tense and subject-verb agreement issues (Grammar problem type IDs 6 and 27). 'I came from China' is better expressed as 'I am from China' when stating origin. 'That own a bicycle themselves' uses wrong relative pronoun and unnecessary 'themselves'; use 'who own bicycles'. 'Average people does own' has subject-verb disagreement; use 'people do own'. The sentence ends awkwardly with 'to go for groceries for'—correct phrasing is 'to go grocery shopping' or 'to buy groceries'. Suggestions: use correct relative pronoun 'who', plural 'bicycles', correct auxiliary 'do', and proper phrase 'go grocery shopping'.
