Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a clear direct answer (topic sentence) and add one or two short supporting details. Keep it natural and under five sentences. Use linking words if you add details (for example: 'and', 'so', 'because', 'when').

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small blue bicycle with training wheels, and I learned to ride it in the park near my house. I rode it almost every day, so it became my favorite way to get around.

提案: The answer is understandable but wordy and indirect. Start with a direct topic sentence ('Yes' or 'No') then give specific supporting reasons or examples using linking words (for example: 'because', 'for example', 'however'). Keep length to a maximum of five sentences and avoid repeating the question phrase.

例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, in the mornings you can see many cyclists on dedicated bike lanes, and bike-sharing programs in cities have also increased their use.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ I had a bike when I was a child.

The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering; this is a sentence structure/content error (ID 26). The response should be a statement in the past tense to answer 'Did you have...?' Use the past simple subject-verb structure: 'I had a bike...'. Also avoid repeating the question word-for-word when answering.

× If you ask me do you think bikes are popular in my country, I will answer you that yes.

✓ If you ask me whether bikes are popular in my country, I will answer that they are.

This sentence has multiple issues but mainly a sentence structure error (ID 26) and incorrect clause linkage. Use 'whether' to introduce indirect yes/no questions and place the subject before the verb in the subordinate clause. Omit redundant 'you' after 'answer' and use a full clause rather than a bare 'yes'. Also keep present tense in the subordinate clause ('they are popular') and ensure pronoun agreement by using 'they' for 'bikes'.
