Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your response repeated the examiner's question and contained a pronunciation/spelling error (“buy” instead of “bike”) and lacked an answer. For Part 1 you should answer directly with a short, natural sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details. Also correct pronunciation and grammar: include the article (“a”) and past tense where needed. Keep it concise (no more than 4–5 sentences).

例: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bicycle that I got when I was seven, and I rode it to school most days. Because my neighborhood was quiet, I felt safe cycling around, and my parents taught me basic repairs like fixing a flat tire.

提案: You simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. For this question, give a clear opinion in one sentence, then support it with a specific reason or example using a linking word (for example, because, therefore, however). Maintain natural phrasing and avoid repetition of the question. Keep it within 3–4 sentences total.

例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and commuting in cities. For example, in my city there are dedicated bike lanes and many students and office workers cycle to save money and avoid traffic.

× Did you have a buy when you were child?

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?

The student used the wrong word 'buy' (a verb) instead of the noun 'bike' and omitted the article 'a' before 'child'. This is an article error and a word-choice/spelling mistake. Use 'a' with singular countable nouns: 'a child'. Also use the noun 'bike' to match the question context. Suggestion: Replace incorrect word with the correct noun and include the indefinite article: 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?'.

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is grammatically correct. The plural noun 'bikes' matches the plural verb concept and the present simple question 'Do you think...' is appropriate for asking a general opinion. Suggestion: No change needed.
