Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a direct past-tense response, expand with one or two specific supporting details, and use linking words. Avoid present-tense ‘have’ for past possession. Keep it natural and concise (1–4 sentences).

例: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle when I was about eight, and I rode it to my friend’s house every afternoon. Because it was lightweight and easy to handle, I learned to ride without training wheels within a week.

提案: Provide a clear opinion supported by specific reasons or examples and use linking words to connect points. Avoid vague answers—mention who uses bikes, for what purposes, or give a brief comparison. Keep to at most 3–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. Many people cycle to work and school because it is cheaper and faster than driving, and recently more bike lanes have been built to make cycling safer.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

The examiner's question 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' is in the past simple. The student's reply uses the present perfect 'I have,' which is incorrect for a past-specific question. Use past simple 'I did' to agree with the past tense question. Suggestion: answer past simple questions with past simple verbs (e.g., 'Yes, I did' or 'Yes, I had a bike').
