Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is relevant and gives a clear topic sentence, but it has some grammatical errors, minor awkward phrasing, and could be a bit more specific. Improve grammar (e.g., "free time" singular, correct tense/word choice), reduce redundancy, and add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Keep your response within 3–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I did. When I was seven I rode a small red bike around my neighborhood. However, I don't ride it anymore because I have little free time due to studying. For example, I usually spend evenings reading or doing homework, so I rarely cycle now.

提案: Your answer addresses the question but contains unclear vocabulary ("cycles" and "sports trucks" are awkward), repetition, and unclear sentence structure. Be specific about why bikes are popular (commuting, affordability, culture), use appropriate vocabulary (bicycles, bike lanes, parks), and add a linking word to connect ideas. Limit to 3–4 concise sentences.

例: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and errands. Moreover, there are dedicated bike lanes in several cities, which makes cycling convenient and safe. If people prefer other activities, they often walk or run in public parks as healthier alternatives.

× I usually study and read.

✓ I usually study and read.

No correction needed: the sentence correctly uses the present simple to describe habitual actions. Keep as is.

× but not anymore because I don't have free times.

✓ but not anymore because I don't have free time.

'Free time' is an uncountable noun and should not take the plural 'times'. Use 'free time' to refer to available leisure time. Suggestion: use 'I don't have free time' or 'I don't have much free time.'

× I used to ride a small red bike, but not anymore because I don't have free times.

✓ I used to ride a small red bike, but not anymore because I don't have free time.

Combined error: 'a small red bike' is correct article use, but 'free times' is incorrect. See previous explanation about uncountable noun 'free time.' Ensure articles are only used with countable singular nouns.

× I think bikes are popular in my country because there are many cycles in the streets and the road.

✓ I think bikes are popular in my country because there are many bicycles on the streets and roads.

'In the streets and the road' is awkward and mixes singular/plural. Use 'on the streets and roads' for general locations. Also 'cycles' is less natural than 'bicycles.' Preposition 'on' is commonly used with streets/roads.

× there are many cycles in the streets and the road.

✓ there are many bicycles on the streets and roads.

Mismatch: 'the road' (singular) doesn't agree with 'streets' (plural). Use consistent plural 'roads' and the plural noun 'bicycles.'

× But if you don't want to ride any cycles, there are sports trucks you can walk or run and the sports truck.

✓ But if you don't want to ride a bicycle, there are sports tracks where you can walk or run.

The original sentence contains several errors: 'sports trucks' is incorrect word choice (truck vs track), 'any cycles' is awkward, and sentence structure is broken. Correct by using 'a bicycle' or 'bicycles,' replacing 'sports trucks' with 'sports tracks' or 'running tracks,' and adding 'where' to introduce the clause 'you can walk or run.'

× So there are many healthier ways.

✓ So there are many healthier ways.

Although grammatically acceptable, 'healthier' typically compares two things; better phrasing is 'there are many healthier options' or 'there are many healthier ways to exercise.' Suggest using a noun after 'healthier' for clarity.
