Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be direct, grammatically correct and avoid irrelevant remarks. Start with a clear topic sentence, use past tense, give a brief reason and one specific detail. Avoid fillers and repetitive words.

예시: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it was unsafe for girls in our neighborhood, so they preferred I walk or take the bus. As a result, I only learned to ride a bicycle when I was a teenager.

제안: Answer directly, use clear reasons and specific comparisons. Use linking words (because, so, however) and avoid hesitations. Provide one or two concise supporting points about cost, convenience or parking.

예시: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because they are cheaper to run and easier to park than cars. For example, many commuters choose motorcycles to avoid traffic and save on fuel and parking fees.

× Uh, I don't have bike because I'm a girl.

✓ Uh, I didn't have a bike because I'm a girl.

The question asks about the past ('when you were a child'), so the student should use past tense. Use 'didn't have' for negative past and include the article 'a' before 'bike'. Also maintain consistency: 'I'm a girl' can remain present as it is a general fact. Suggestion: Use past tense for possessions in childhood and include appropriate articles.

× That's why my mother and father, they are not giving me a bike or bicycle.

✓ That's why my mother and father didn't give me a bike.

Again the context is past, so use past simple 'didn't give' rather than present continuous. The clause currently repeats the subject ('my mother and father, they'), which is redundant and incorrect in formal speech. Use one subject and match verb tense. 'A bike' is sufficient; 'or bicycle' is unnecessary. Suggestion: Use simple past for past events and avoid repeating subjects.

× Yes, because uh, the four Wheelers are uh the uh uh, they want uh, the extra extra fuel and uh they're not keep in small uh space uh and uh, the.

✓ Yes, because four-wheelers use more fuel and cannot be kept in small spaces.

The original has several issues: 'the four Wheelers' needs hyphenation and does not require 'the' in this general statement. 'They want the extra fuel' is incorrect; use 'use more fuel' to describe consumption. 'They're not keep in small space' mixes tenses and forms; correct is 'cannot be kept in small spaces' or 'cannot fit in small spaces'. Also remove filler words and incomplete ending. Suggestion: Use clear subject-verb constructions, correct verb forms ('use' not 'want'), modal/ability phrasing ('cannot be kept' or 'cannot fit'), and plural 'spaces' when generalizing.
