Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Improve tense accuracy, expand slightly with a topic sentence and one supporting detail, and avoid very short answers. Use past tense for childhood and add a brief description or reason. Keep within 3–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small red bicycle with training wheels, and I used it to ride around my neighborhood every afternoon. Learning to ride on that bike helped me gain confidence and independence.

提案: Make the response grammatically consistent and more specific. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details (who uses bikes, why, or where). Use plural agreement and smoother linking words like “because” or “for example.” Keep to 2–4 sentences.

例: Yes, bicycles are very popular in my country because they are cheap and convenient for short trips. For example, many students and commuters ride bikes to school or work, especially in small towns where traffic is light.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

The question 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' is in the past simple. The student's reply uses 'have' (present tense) which is incorrect. Use the past simple auxiliary 'did' for a short affirmative answer about the past: 'Yes, I did.' Alternatively a full sentence: 'Yes, I had a bike.' Keep tense consistent with the question.

× Yes, it's so popular in my country and we also use it as a daily travel.

✓ Yes, they are very popular in my country and we also use them for daily travel.

The examiner asked generally about 'bikes' (plural). The student replied with 'it's' (singular) and 'use it' which mismatch the plural subject. Use plural pronouns 'they' and object 'them'. Also 'so popular' is informal; 'very popular' is more appropriate. 'As a daily travel' is unidiomatic; use the noun phrase 'for daily travel' or 'for daily transportation.' Maintain present simple for general statements: 'are' and 'use.'
