Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. To improve, give a direct topic sentence stating whether you had a bike, then add one or two specific supporting details (age when you got it, how you used it, or who taught you). Keep it natural, concise (maximum 5 sentences), and use linking words like “and” or “so” to connect ideas.

例: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child. I got it when I was about seven and learned to ride it in the park near my house. My father taught me, and I rode it to visit friends and to go to school on weekends.

提案: Again, you repeated the examiner instead of answering. To improve, start with a clear opinion (yes/no/partly), then support it with specific reasons or examples (urban cycling, bike lanes, or cultural habits). Use linking words such as “because,” “however,” or “for example” to make your answer coherent and informative.

例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For example, cities have introduced bike-sharing schemes and some neighborhoods have dedicated bike lanes, which makes cycling more convenient and safe.

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

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The original student response repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26) because the reply lacks a main verb and subject that express an answer. Correction provides a clear past-tense statement: 'Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.' Suggestion: use the simple past tense 'had' to answer 'Did you...' and include a subject and verb to form a complete sentence.

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.

The student repeated the examiner's question rather than answering, which is a sentence structure error (ID 26) because the response should be a statement expressing opinion. Correction uses present simple 'I think' to match the question tense and provides a complete sentence. Suggestion: when asked 'Do you think...?', respond with 'Yes, I think...' or 'No, I don't think...' followed by supporting details.
