Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
수험생
Yes, bikes are popular in our country because most Filipinos cannot afford very expensive ways of transportation and bikes are the ones that are very accessible.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
점수: 55.0제안: Be more natural, grammatically accurate and provide a bit more detail. Start with a clear topic sentence in the past tense (“Yes, I did”), add 1–2 brief supporting details (where you rode it, who you rode with, or a short memory), and keep it under 3–4 sentences. Use linking words like “and” or “when” for coherence.
예시: Yes, I did. I had a small red bike that my parents bought me when I was six, and I used to ride it around the neighborhood with my friends after school.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
점수: 75.0제안: Your answer is relevant and gives a reason, but improve natural phrasing and add a specific example or brief comparison. Use linking words (e.g., “because,” “for example,” “so”) and avoid absolute statements—be concise and aim for 2–3 sentences.
예시: Yes, I think bikes are very popular because many people find them affordable and convenient. For example, in smaller towns people often cycle to the market or to work since public transport can be expensive or infrequent.
× Yes, I have a bike.
✓ Yes, I had a bike.
The examiner asked about possession in the past (when you were a child), so the student should use the past tense 'had' rather than the present tense 'have'. Use past simple for completed states in the past: 'I had a bike.' Suggestion: Match the tense of your answer to the time reference in the question (use past tense for past-time questions).
× Yes, bikes are popular in our country because most Filipinos cannot afford very expensive ways of transportation and bikes are the ones that are very accessible.
✓ Yes, bikes are popular in our country because most Filipinos cannot afford very expensive means of transportation, and bikes are the most accessible option.
The sentence mostly uses present tense correctly for a general truth, but contains awkward wording and minor article/word choice issues. 'Ways of transportation' is unnatural; use 'means of transportation'. Also 'the ones that are very accessible' is wordy—use 'the most accessible option'. Keep present simple for general statements. Suggestion: Use natural collocations ('means of transportation') and concise phrasing ('the most accessible option') while keeping present simple for general facts.
