Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Improve tense accuracy, grammar, and fluency; make your answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence in the past tense (because question asks about childhood), correct verb forms and collocations (e.g., “had a bike”, “rode my bike”, “bonding” → “bonding” or better phrased). Use one or two supporting details with linking words and avoid repetition. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it every afternoon with my brother, which became a regular way for us to bond. We especially enjoyed cycling together on weekends when we didn’t have classes.

제안: Good content and specificity; improve grammar, word choice and cohesion. Use plural/singular forms correctly (e.g., “adults use them”), add linking words for flow, and vary vocabulary slightly. Keep answer concise (3–4 sentences) and include a brief reason or example to support your claim.

예시: Yes, bicycles are very popular in the Philippines. Many children learn to ride as early as three, and adults often use bikes for short commutes or exercise because they’re affordable and can beat traffic. Recently, there has been a noticeable increase in cycling due to better bike lanes and growing health awareness.

× Yes, I do have a bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike.

The examiner asked about the past ('when you were a child'), so the student should use past tense. Using 'do have' is present tense and incorrect for the time frame. Use simple past 'had' to match the question's time reference.

× Every afternoon I ride bike with my brother.

✓ Every afternoon I rode my bike with my brother.

The context is past habitual action, so use past tense 'rode'. Additionally, English requires an article before 'bike' in this structure ('my bike'). Use 'my bike' to specify the object and 'rode' for past routine.

× This is our banding every time we don't have class, especially every weekend.

✓ This was our bonding time whenever we didn't have class, especially on weekends.

'Banding' is incorrect word choice; likely intended 'bonding'. The sentence refers to past routines, so verbs should be past ('was', 'didn't'). Use 'whenever' or 'whenever we didn't have class' for repeated past occasions and 'on weekends' is the correct prepositional phrase. Also 'bonding time' is a natural collocation.

× Many children learn how to ride bike as early as three years old and adult use it for short commutes or exercise because they are affordable and help them avoid traffic.

✓ Many children learn how to ride a bike as early as three years old, and adults use them for short commutes or exercise because they are affordable and help them avoid traffic.

Use the indefinite article 'a bike' when referring to 'ride a bike'. 'Adult' should be plural 'adults' to match 'many children' and general meaning. Pronoun agreement: 'bike' (plural reference to people) -> 'them' or rephrase to 'bikes'. Also maintain subject-verb agreement: 'adults use' not 'adult use'.

× Recently, more people have started cycling.

✓ Recently, more people have started cycling.

This sentence is correct. It uses present perfect 'have started' to describe a recent change continuing to present, which fits the context, so no correction is needed.
