Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Candidato
Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country since most of the cities have a regulation or a band on electric bike riding, so most of the people have to ride bikes when the distance was too short to umm, drive a car or too long to walk.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Puntuación: 82.0Sugerencia: 回答直接,内容也比较具体,包括年龄、父母买车和学车经历。不过句子过长,多个“and”连接使表达不够自然;“teach me to ride it”可以改为“help me learn to ride it”,“ride back to school”应根据语境改为“ride my bike to school”。建议使用时间和结果连接词,如“When I was six”与“As a result”,并将答案控制在2—3句。
Ejemplo: Yes, I did. When I was about six, my parents bought me a new bike and helped me learn how to ride it. I picked it up quite quickly, and soon I was cycling to school every day.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Puntuación: 68.0Sugerencia: 回答有明确观点和原因,但逻辑不够清晰:限制电动车并不一定能说明普通自行车受欢迎,建议先说明自行车在城市中的普及情况,再补充原因。“band”应改为“ban”,“most of the people”应改为“most people”,“the distance was”应改为“the distance is”。此外,应避免“umm”,并将过长句子拆开,使用“especially”和“because”等连接词。
Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in larger cities. Many people cycle for short journeys because it is cheaper and more convenient than driving. In addition, some cities have restricted electric-bike use, which has encouraged people to use ordinary bicycles.
× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country since most of the cities have a regulation or a band on electric bike riding, so most of the people have to ride bikes when the distance was too short to umm, drive a car or too long to walk.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country since most cities have regulations or a ban on riding electric bikes, so most people have to ride bikes when the distance is too short to drive a car but too long to walk.
这里描述的是现在普遍存在的情况,因此应使用一般现在时。原句中的“was”是过去时,应改为“is”。另外,“most cities”和“most people”表示泛指时通常不加“the”;“the distance is too short ... but too long ...”中使用“is”保持时态一致。
