Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 68.0Suggestion: 回答切题,也提供了自行车来源和使用经历。注意时态一致:既然描述的是高中时期,应将“have”改为“had”,将“ride”改为“rode”;此外,“each day”可换成更自然的“every day”。
Example: Yes, I did. My grandfather bought me a bike when I was a child, and I rode it to school every day when I was in high school.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 52.0Suggestion: 开头可以直接说明自行车现在是否流行,再用过去与现在作对比。删除“uh”等填充词;过去习惯用“used to ride”,注意“a bike”或“bikes”的单复数。介绍共享单车时用“public bikes”或“bike-sharing services”,并把“write it”改为“ride it”。
Example: Yes, bikes are still quite popular in my country. In the past, many people used to ride them to work, and nowadays bike-sharing services are common in cities. You can unlock a bike by scanning a QR code and pay a small fee.
× Yes, I have a bike that my grandfather bought me and I ride it each day when I was a high school student.
✓ Yes, I had a bike that my grandfather bought me, and I rode it every day when I was a high school student.
这句话描述的是你上高中时的情况,时间背景是过去,因此应将 have 改为 had,将 ride 改为 rode。注意,同一句中描述同一段过去经历的动词通常要保持过去时。
× Yes, very uh, many decades ago people write used to ride bike to work every day and even now we have some in public bike. You can scan the code and write it and just pay a little.
✓ Yes. Many decades ago, people used to ride bikes to work every day, and even now we have some public bikes. You can scan the code and write it, and just pay a little.
“people write used to ride”中,write 多余,造成动词结构错误;表示过去的习惯时直接用“people used to ride”。修改时删去了多余的 write。
× Yes, very uh, many decades ago people write used to ride bike to work every day and even now we have some in public bike. You can scan the code and write it and just pay a little.
✓ Yes. Many decades ago, people used to ride bikes to work every day, and even now we have some public bikes. You can scan the code and write it, and just pay a little.
这里泛指人们过去骑自行车通勤,bike 应使用复数 bikes。后文的 some 也表示“有一些”,后接可数名词复数,因此应说 some public bikes。
