Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Correct the grammar and tenses, make the answer direct, and add one brief specific detail. Use past tense for childhood and avoid contradiction. Keep it under 5 sentences and use a linking word if adding details.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. However, I had a small tricycle until I was six, which I used to ride in the neighbourhood park.

提案: Improve grammar (subject–verb agreement, plural/singular), be precise and avoid overgeneralisation. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting reasons using linking words (e.g., because, however).

例: Yes, bikes are popular among some people in my country, but their popularity varies. For example, high-end bicycles are common among wealthier young people because they use them for sport, whereas many middle-class families prefer cheaper motorbikes due to cost.

× No, I don't have any bike when I was a child, but I have an bicycle.

✓ No, I didn't have any bike when I was a child, but I had a bicycle.

Multiple issues: wrong tense and pronoun/determiner use. The question asks about the past, so use past simple 'didn't have' not present 'don't have' (matches Grammar Problem Type 5 Past tense issue as well, but primary is incorrect pronoun/determiner). 'Any bike' is acceptable in negative, but 'an bicycle' is incorrect because 'an' before a consonant sound is wrong; use 'a bicycle'. Also 'have' should be past 'had' to match 'when I was a child'. Suggestion: use past simple consistently: 'I didn't have a bike when I was a child, but I had a bicycle.' If you mean you owned one, say 'I had a bicycle.' If you mean you did not, say 'I didn't have a bicycle.'

× Yeah, in my country bike are most popular for rich kid, but for the middle class family they cannot afford to buy a bike.

✓ Yeah, in my country bikes are most popular among rich kids, but middle-class families cannot afford to buy a bike.

Subject-verb agreement and pluralization errors: 'bike' should be plural 'bikes' to match 'are'. 'Are' agrees with plural subject, so use 'bikes are'. 'Rich kid' should be plural 'rich kids'. 'For the middle class family' is awkward; use plural 'middle-class families'. Preposition use: 'popular for' is better as 'popular among'. Also avoid unnecessary pronoun 'they' which could be fine but better to state 'middle-class families cannot afford'. Suggestions: make nouns and verbs agree in number and use correct prepositions: 'Bikes are most popular among rich kids, but middle-class families cannot afford to buy a bike.'
