自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Make the answer grammatically correct, more natural and give a brief reason or detail. Keep it under five sentences and start with a clear topic sentence. Use a past-tense verb and a linking word to add a short explanation.

範例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, but I rarely used it because my parents preferred to drive me everywhere. As a result, I didn’t become confident riding until I was older.

建議: This is a clear and relevant response. To improve, vary vocabulary and add a specific example or brief comparison using a linking phrase. Keep it concise and avoid redundancy (e.g., “often” and “many” together).

範例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. For example, I see large numbers of commuters cycling to work every morning, especially in cities where traffic is congested, which makes cycling a faster option than driving.

× Yes, but I never use it.

✓ Yes, but I never used it.

The question is about the past (when you were a child), so the verb must be in the past tense. 'Use' is present tense; 'used' is the correct past tense form. Suggestion: Match the verb tense to the time frame in the question (use past tense for past situations).

× I often see many people using bikes to commute to work and school, especially in the mornings when traffic is heavy.

✓ I often saw many people using bikes to commute to work and school, especially in the mornings when traffic was heavy.

The context compares general popularity in the country; the student began by answering a present-tense question about current popularity. However, because the first exchange asked about having a bike 'when you were a child' and the next examiner question asks 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' (present), two options exist: keep present or, if referring to past childhood context, use past. The original sentence uses present 'see' but follows a past reference in the conversation flow ('Did you have...'). If the student intends to describe current popularity, present tense 'I often see' is correct. If the student intends to relate to past habits, use past 'I often saw'. Choose the tense to match the intended time frame. Suggestion: Decide whether describing present general fact (use present simple) or past observations (use past simple).
