Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Provide a fuller, natural response: state whether you had a bike, give a brief reason why you didn’t learn (or why you stopped), and add a short detail or consequence. Use one or two linking words to connect ideas and avoid sounding abrupt.

例: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child, but I never learned to ride it because my parents were worried about safety. As a result, I mostly used it as decoration in the yard, although I sometimes practiced balancing while holding onto a wall.

提案: Make the response more specific and country-focused: start with a clear opinion about your country, then give reasons and a brief example or comparison. Use linking words like "because" or "for example" to make it coherent and relevant to the question.

例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many families find them an affordable and healthy way for children to travel. For example, I often see kids riding to school and parents taking younger children in child seats on weekends.

× Yes, but I never learned how to ride a bike.

✓ Yes, but I never learned how to ride a bike.

No correction needed; sentence correctly uses past tense 'learned' to refer to a past period (childhood). Keep as is.

× Yes, I think in most countries children love bikes no matter where.

✓ Yes, I think children in most countries love bikes no matter where they are.

The original word order is awkward and lacks a clear subject for 'where'. Reordering to 'children in most countries' places the noun phrase correctly (adverbial phrase placement). Adding 'they are' clarifies the clause 'no matter where' so it refers to the children’s location. This preserves present simple tense 'think' and 'love' used for general truths.
