自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Give a direct past-tense answer, use a clear topic sentence, and add one or two specific supporting details. Avoid vague fillers like “I have like.” Use linking words if you add more than one detail. Speak in past tense for childhood experiences.

範例: Yes, I did. I had an old red bicycle when I was about eight years old, and I rode it to school most days. It was a simple single-speed bike, but I loved it because it gave me independence and helped me make friends in the neighborhood.

建議: Answer directly and then support your opinion with specific reasons or examples. Use linking words (for example, because, however) to connect your points. Avoid repeating words and make sure verbs and articles are correct (e.g., “bikes are popular” not “the bikes are popular”).

範例: No, I don't think bikes are very popular in my country. For example, most people prefer cars or motorbikes because the public infrastructure for cycling is limited and roads are often unsafe for cyclists.

× Yes, I have like.

✓ Yes, I did.

The examiner asked about the past (when you were a child), so the student should use past tense. The original 'I have like' is ungrammatical: 'have' is present tense and 'like' is not used correctly here. Use 'I did' or a full phrase such as 'Yes, I did' or 'Yes, I had one.' To improve, listen for time markers (when you were a child) and match verb tense to past; practice forming short answers in past tense (did/had).

× No, I don't think the bikes are popular in my country.

✓ No, I don't think bikes are popular in my country.

The meaning is clear but the definite article 'the' before 'bikes' incorrectly implies specific bikes rather than bikes in general. When speaking about things in general with a plural noun, do not use 'the'. Also ensure present simple is used for general truths: 'don't think' + 'are popular' is correct. Suggestion: drop 'the' to say 'bikes are popular' when referring to bicycles in general.
