自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Clarify verb tenses and remove unnecessary details. Start with a direct topic sentence (Yes/No), then add one or two clear supporting details. Use past simple for completed actions and avoid irrelevant comments (e.g. "couldn't write"). Keep it within 3–4 sentences and use linking words like "however" or "but" for coherence.

範例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My parents gave it to me for my birthday, and I used it to ride around the neighborhood every weekend. However, after a few years it broke and I could no longer ride it.

建議: Answer directly, then provide a concise contrast with Japan using correct grammar and clearer vocabulary. Avoid overgeneralizations like "people use only cars"; instead give specific reasons or examples. Use linking words ("however", "in contrast", "because") and correct tense/agreement.

範例: No, bikes are not very popular in Uzbekistan; most people prefer cars for long distances. However, in Japan, where I have lived for four years, cycling is common because it is convenient for short trips and good for health.

× Well, of course, when I was younger, I have got a bike because my parents gifted me to my birthday.

✓ Well, of course, when I was younger, I had a bike because my parents gave it to me for my birthday.

The student used present perfect 'have got' and an incorrect verb phrase 'gifted me to my birthday' when referring to a past situation. Use simple past 'had' and 'gave' for completed past actions; use the preposition 'for' with 'birthday'. Suggestion: use simple past for past events and standard collocations ('gave it to me for my birthday').

× But the time I couldn't write, you know, and then I learned to write, the bicycle had already broken down, so.

✓ But by the time I couldn't write, you know, and then when I learned to write, the bicycle had already broken down.

The sentence mixes tenses and has awkward sequencing. Use 'by the time' with past simple and past perfect to show an earlier action ('had already broken down'). Also clarify timeline: 'by the time I learned to write, the bicycle had already broken down.' Remove trailing 'so'. Suggestion: order clauses clearly and use past perfect for the earlier past event.

× To be honest, bikes are not popular in my country.

✓ To be honest, bicycles are not very popular in my country.

This sentence is mostly correct, but 'bikes' is informal and 'not popular' benefits from degree 'very' for natural speech. No grammatical tense error, but improved word choice: use 'bicycles' and add 'very' to reflect typical native phrasing. Suggestion: prefer 'bicycles' in formal contexts.

× I'm from Uzbekistan. In Uzbekistan people use only cars, you know.

✓ I'm from Uzbekistan. In Uzbekistan, people mainly use cars, you know.

'Use only cars' is awkward; 'mainly use cars' correctly expresses that cars are the primary mode. Add a comma after 'Uzbekistan' for clarity. Tense is fine (present simple for general facts). Suggestion: use 'mainly' or 'mostly' to indicate predominance.

× But I live in Japan, about four years in.

✓ But I have been living in Japan for about four years.

The student used present simple 'I live' with 'about four years in', which is unnatural. Use present perfect continuous or present perfect 'have been living' to indicate an action that started in the past and continues to the present; use 'for about four years' for duration. Suggestion: 'I have been living in Japan for about four years.'

× Japan is very popular because it's useful for people's healthy and any Japanese use bicycle when they were.

✓ In Japan, bicycles are very popular because they are useful for people's health, and many Japanese use them regularly.

This sentence has multiple issues: 'Japan is very popular' is wrong in context — the intended meaning is 'bicycles are popular in Japan.' 'Useful for people's healthy' is incorrect word form; use noun 'health.' The clause 'any Japanese use bicycle when they were' is ungrammatical and unclear; replace with 'many Japanese use them regularly.' Use plural pronoun 'them' to refer to bicycles. Suggestion: restructure to a clear cause-and-effect sentence and correct word forms and pronouns.
