Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 15.0Suggestion: 目前答案难以理解,也没有直接回答小时候是否有自行车。建议先明确回答“Yes, I did”或“No, I didn’t”,再补充自行车的颜色、品牌或骑车经历。注意使用完整、清晰的句子;如果想说品牌,可以说“The brand was Giant”。
Example: Yes, I did. I had a red bike made by Giant, which is a well-known brand. I used to ride it around my neighbourhood with my friends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: 你有直接表达观点,并提到了不同年龄段的人会骑车,这是不错的补充。不过,“not only in older but also in the younger youth”和“write back”不自然,建议改为“among both older and younger people”以及“ride bikes”。可用“because”或“for example”连接原因或例子,并具体说明骑车的用途。
Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country among both older and younger people. Many people ride them for short trips because cycling is convenient and good exercise. For example, young people often cycle around parks at weekends.
× Yes, I think it's very popular not only in older but also in the younger youth they often write back to take a short tour.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular among both older and younger people. They often ride bikes on short trips.
前文讨论的是复数名词“bikes”,因此用“it”指代不一致。应使用“they”,或直接重复“bikes”。
× Yes, I think it's very popular not only in older but also in the younger youth they often write back to take a short tour.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular among both older and younger people. They often ride bikes on short trips.
这里表示“在年长者和年轻人当中受欢迎”,应使用“among”,而不是“in”。此外,“older”和“younger”后应补充“people”,使表达完整、平行。
× Yes, I think it's very popular not only in older but also in the younger youth they often write back to take a short tour.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular among both older and younger people. They often ride bikes on short trips.
原句把两个完整意思直接连在一起,缺少适当的标点或连接词,形成句子粘连。可拆成两个句子。原文“write back”与骑车语境不符;若想表达骑车出游,可说“ride bikes on short trips”。
