Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Correct grammar and make the response more natural and concise. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using proper past tense and a linking word. Avoid repetition. For example, say you didn’t have one and explain why or what you did instead.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. Instead, I usually walked to school or took the bus because my family lived far from the school and we couldn’t afford extra things then.

提案: Make the answer more specific and natural by giving brief reasons and an example. Use linking words (e.g., because, for example) and a clearer phrase than “based on our tradition.” Keep it within 2–4 sentences and use appropriate vocabulary such as “common” or “widely used.”

例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and commuting. For example, in smaller towns it’s common to see families riding bicycles to the market, and cycling is also promoted as an inexpensive, eco-friendly transport option.

× I did not have a bike.

✓ I did not have a bike.

No correction needed; this sentence is already correct past simple negative. Keep as 'did not have' for past tense negative form.

× I did not had a bike when I was a child.

✓ I did not have a bike when I was a child.

The auxiliary 'did' already marks the past tense, so the main verb must be in the base form. Using 'had' after 'did' is incorrect. Use 'did not have' for past simple negative. Suggestion: form negatives in past simple with 'did not' + base verb.

× Definitely, bikes are popular in my country as it is based on our tradition too.

✓ Definitely, bikes are popular in my country because they are part of our tradition too.

'As it is based on our tradition too' is awkward and unclear. 'Bikes' is plural, so the pronoun should be 'they' not 'it'. Also 'based on our tradition' is better expressed as 'part of our tradition' or 'because of our tradition'. The corrected sentence uses 'because' for clarity and 'they are part of our tradition' to match number and meaning.
