Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Give a direct answer in the correct tense, then add one or two brief specific details. Use past tense for childhood and a linking word to connect details. Keep it natural and concise (no more than 4–5 sentences).

예시: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle when I was about eight, and I used to ride it to the park every weekend. Because it was lightweight, I learned to ride without training wheels quickly and often raced my friends.

제안: Answer directly and clearly, then support with specific reasons or examples. Use appropriate vocabulary (popular rather than 'famous') and correct grammar. Use linking words (however, although, because) to make your point coherent and avoid repetition. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

예시: I don't think bicycles are very popular in my country. Although some people use them for short trips, most people prefer cars and motorcycles because they are faster and more convenient. However, cycling is becoming more common in big cities due to traffic and cycling lanes being introduced.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

The examiner asked about the past: 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' The student used 'have' (present tense) but should use the past tense 'did' to agree with the question's past time reference. Suggestion: Use past tense auxiliaries or past simple verbs when the question refers to past time (e.g., 'Yes, I did' or 'Yes, I had a bike').

× No, bikes are not famous in our country, but more bikes, that's famous.

✓ No, bikes are not popular in our country, but bicycles are becoming more popular now.

The original sentence has several problems: 'famous' is the wrong adjective for popularity (use 'popular'), 'more bikes, that's famous' is ungrammatical and unclear. This is a sentence structure and adjective choice issue. Suggestion: Use 'popular' to describe common use and form a clear contrast clause: 'No, bikes are not popular in our country, but they are becoming more popular.' If emphasizing a trend, add a time marker like 'now' or 'recently.'
