Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a fuller, natural response by starting with a topic sentence and adding one or two specific supporting details. Use linking words (for example, because/so/and) and avoid one-word answers. Mention when you had the bike, who it belonged to, or a brief memory to make it vivid.

例: Yes, I did — I had a small red bicycle when I was about seven years old. It belonged to me and I learned to ride it in the park near my house, which helped me feel more independent and confident.

提案: Answer directly with a clear opinion and then support it with specific reasons or examples. Use a linking word to introduce the reasons (for example, because/since/for instance). Be natural and avoid short, vague replies like “Yes, right.”

例: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For instance, in cities you can see bike lanes and shared bike services, which makes cycling convenient and affordable.

× Student: Yes, right.

✓ Student: Yes, that's right.

The student's reply 'Yes, right.' is grammatically awkward and incomplete in this context. Common natural responses are 'Yes, that's right.' or 'Yes, that's correct.' This fixes sentence structure by adding the demonstrative pronoun 'that' and the contraction 's' to form a complete clause. Suggestion: use 'That's right' or 'That's correct' for confirmation, or simply 'Yes' if you want a short affirmative.
