Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Your answer is correct but too brief. Start with a clear topic sentence and then add one or two specific supporting details (where/when you used it, who gave it to you, or a memorable experience). Keep it natural and under five sentences. Use a linking word if you add more than one detail.

예시: Yes, I did. I had a red bicycle that my parents bought me when I was seven, and I used to ride it to the park every weekend. Because I practiced a lot, I learned to ride without training wheels within a few days, which made me very proud.

제안: Your response gives an opinion but has grammar and word-choice issues and is short. Give a clear topic sentence, then support it with a specific reason or example. Use correct noun forms and linking words (e.g., because, for example, therefore). Keep it natural and concise.

예시: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country because more people use them for daily commuting. For example, many cities have added bike lanes and rental schemes recently, so the number of cyclists has increased noticeably.

× I think they're quite popular. Umm, the amount of cyclists are rising nowadays.

✓ I think they're quite popular. Umm, the number of cyclists is rising nowadays.

The error is subject-verb agreement and word choice: 'amount' is used with uncountable nouns, but 'cyclists' is countable, so use 'number' (Grammar Problem Type ID 1 refers to singular/plural but the best match for agreement is ID 27; however the specific issue here is subject-verb agreement with a plural noun and incorrect quantifier). Also, the subject 'the number' is singular, so it requires the singular verb 'is' instead of 'are'. Correction: replace 'amount' with 'number' and use 'is'. Suggestion: use 'number of + plural noun' for countable items and ensure the verb agrees with 'number' (singular) or with the noun if you rephrase (e.g., 'Cyclist numbers are rising' or 'The number of cyclists is rising').
