Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be careful with tense and article use, and give a slightly longer natural response (max 5 sentences). Start with a clear topic sentence in the past tense, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. For example, say whether you had a bike and why or why not, and mention an activity you did instead. Avoid unnecessary fillers like “uh” or “umm.”

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. Instead, I usually walked to school because my family lived nearby. Occasionally I borrowed my neighbour’s bike to ride in the park on weekends.

提案: Give a clearer, more accurate claim and support it with specific reasons and examples. Use linking words (for example, because, and therefore) and correct determiners and verb forms. Keep it natural and avoid fillers. Mention who uses bikes and for what purposes, and give a brief example or comparison.

例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are cheap and practical for short trips. For example, many people use bicycles to commute to work or school, and some drivers use bikes to provide delivery services for apps like Uber Eats.

× No, I don't have any bike when I was a child.

✓ No, I didn't have any bike when I was a child.

The sentence describes a past state, so use past simple rather than present simple. 'Don't have' is present; change to 'didn't have'. Also, 'any bike' is acceptable in negative, but 'a bike' with 'didn't' is more natural: 'I didn't have a bike.' Suggestion: use 'I didn't have a bike when I was a child.'

× Uh, yes, because, uh, every single person has a own bike.

✓ Uh, yes, because every single person has their own bike.

The phrase 'a own bike' is ungrammatical: after the article 'a' the adjective should not be 'own' without a possessive; use a possessive determiner or change article. 'Their' is a gender-neutral singular possessive that fits with 'every single person.' Also 'has' is correct for third-person singular. Suggestion: 'every single person has their own bike.'

× Umm, sometimes they use as a bike for Uber, uh.

✓ Umm, sometimes they use it as a bike for Uber.

The verb 'use' needs a direct object here, so include 'it' (referring to the bike). The preposition 'for' is acceptable for purpose, but the structure 'use as a bike' requires the object: 'use it as a bike.' Alternatively: 'They sometimes use it for Uber.' Suggestion: 'Sometimes they use it as a bike for Uber' or 'Sometimes they use it for Uber.'
