Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is correct but too short and lacks detail. Give a clear topic sentence and add one or two brief supporting details using linking words. For example, mention when you got the bike, what it looked like, or a short memory about riding it to make the response more natural and informative.

例: Yes, I did. I got my first bike when I was seven, and it was a bright red mountain bike with training wheels. Later, I learned to ride without them and often rode to the park with my friends after school.

提案: Your answer addresses the question but is informal and slightly imprecise. Avoid absolute words like “all” unless certain, and combine sentences for coherence using linking words. Add a brief reason or contrast (e.g., why they are popular and whether this is changing) to show depth.

例: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially among children and teenagers. For example, when I was young many kids rode bikes every afternoon to play with friends, although nowadays more people use scooters or public transport in cities.

× Yes, in my country all the children used to bike. Every afternoon with my friends.

✓ Yes, in my country all the children used to ride bikes every afternoon with my friends.

The original reply is fragmented and has awkward phrasing. 'Used to bike' is acceptable but 'bike' as a verb is less formal; 'ride bikes' is clearer. The second fragment 'Every afternoon with my friends.' is not a complete sentence (sentence structure error). Combine ideas into one full sentence and place adverbial phrase 'every afternoon' in a natural position: '...ride bikes every afternoon with my friends.' Also ensure tense matches the past habitual 'used to.'
