Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Make your response grammatically correct, more natural, and add one or two specific supporting details. Start with a clear topic sentence, then briefly say when/why you had it and a short memory or how often you used it. Use linking words like “and” or “because” to connect ideas. Keep it to 1–3 concise sentences.

예시: Yes, I did — I had a small red bike when I was about seven. I used it almost every day to ride around my neighborhood and visit friends, and I remember learning to ride without training wheels in the park.

제안: Answer the question directly with a clear tense and give a reason and an example. Use linking words (for example, because, however) and be specific about who uses bikes or where they are used. Keep to 1–3 sentences and avoid vague phrases.

예시: Not very — bicycles aren’t very popular in my city because most people prefer cars or public transport. However, some students and cyclists use bikes for short commutes in quieter neighborhoods.

× Yes, I had the bike when I was child.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The error is using a definite article 'the' and missing the article before 'child'. Use 'a bike' because the speaker refers to any bike in general, not a specific one (article error). Also 'a child' requires an article; the correct phrase is 'when I was a child.' Suggestion: use 'a' for non-specific singular nouns and include 'a' before 'child.'

× No it wasn't popular. Just could use a bike.

✓ No, they aren't very popular. People just used bikes occasionally.

Two issues: first sentence uses past tense 'wasn't' but question asks about general popularity in the present, so use present tense 'aren't' (present tense issue). Second sentence is missing a subject and auxiliary/modal, and the verb tense and form are incorrect ('Just could use a bike' is ungrammatical). I corrected to 'People just used bikes occasionally' to convey that people used bikes sometimes; if speaker means currently, use 'People just use bikes occasionally.' Suggestion: include a clear subject, correct tense to match the time frame, and use adverbs like 'occasionally' for frequency.
