Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: 回答は意味が通じますが、文法ミスと論理のつながりが不自然です（“thought it's a few years ago”や“stopped writing”は誤用）。情報を整理して、時制と表現を正しく使い、短く明確に答えると自然になります。具体的には、まず直接的なトピック文を述べ、その後で購入者や思い出などの具体的な詳細を付け加える練習をしてください。例：過去形を統一し、不要なフレーズを省く。

例: Yes. I had a bike when I was in junior high school. My mother bought it for me as a birthday present, and I used it to ride to school and around the neighborhood. I stopped riding regularly after I graduated and started using public transport instead.

提案: 回答は明確で内容も適切ですが、いくつかの言い換えと文法修正が必要です（“front of transportation”は不自然、フィラーの“uh”は避ける）。また、簡潔に理由や具体例（統計や場所の具体化）を加えると説得力が増します。接続詞を使って論の流れを明確にし、語彙を少し豊かにする練習をしてください。

例: Not really. Bicycles are common for short trips and recreation — you often see people cycling in parks and near schools. However, they are not the preferred option for long journeys, because most people use cars or public transport for commuting and long-distance travel.

× My mom bought it for me but I thought it's a few years ago because I stopped writing after I graduated.

✓ My mom bought it for me, but I thought it was a few years ago because I stopped riding after I graduated.

The sentence mixes present tense 'it's' with past context; use past tense 'was' to match 'bought' and 'stopped'. Also 'writing' is incorrect word choice for using a bicycle; it should be 'riding'. Suggestion: keep verb tenses consistent by using past tense for past events and choose the correct verb collocation ('ride a bike').

× Bicycles are useful as a front of transportation and you can see many people uh cycling in park and near schools.

✓ Bicycles are useful as a form of transportation, and you can see many people cycling in parks and near schools.

Use 'form of transportation' not 'front of transportation'. Also use the plural 'parks' for general places and include the article 'cycling in parks'. Ensure conjunction 'and' connects two clauses; remove filler 'uh'.

× However, they are not the most common way to travel for a long distance because most people prefer car or public transport.

✓ However, they are not the most common way to travel long distances because most people prefer cars or public transport.

Use plural 'cars' when speaking generally ('most people prefer cars'). Also 'travel long distances' is the correct collocation rather than 'travel for a long distance'.
