Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a direct answer in the past tense, correct grammar, and add one or two brief supporting details. Use a topic sentence, then a linked detail (reason or memory). Keep it natural and under five sentences.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I usually walked around my neighbourhood because my family couldn’t afford one, and I preferred helping with small jobs after school. As a result, walking became my main way to get around.

提案: Answer directly and clearly, use correct grammar and coherent linking words to explain why. Provide a specific supporting detail (who uses bikes, where, or for what). Keep answers concise and natural.

例: Yes, bicycles have become quite popular in my country, especially in large cities. For example, many young people use shared bikes for short commutes during weekdays, while others ride on weekends for exercise or leisure in parks.

× No I don't have bike, I usually walk around the city.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike; I usually walked around the city.

The examiner asked about the past ('when you were a child'), so past tense is required. 'Don't have' is present tense; use past 'didn't have.' 'Bike' needs the article 'a' (countable noun). 'Usually' with a past habit uses past tense 'walked.' Also add a comma after 'No' and replace with a semicolon or separate sentence for clarity.

× Thought I was a student work.

✓ I thought I was a student and worked, or I thought I would work while I was a student.

The original sentence is incomplete and ungrammatical: missing subject and correct verb forms. 'Thought' needs an explicit subject 'I.' The intended meaning is unclear: if the student meant they worked as a student use 'I worked as a student' or 'I thought I would work while I was a student.' Choose the version that matches the intended meaning. Ensure proper subject-verb structure and correct tense.

× Yeah, now a bike is popular.

✓ Yes, bikes are popular now.

Use plural 'bikes' when making a general statement about popularity (countable noun). 'Now' placement at end is more natural. 'Yeah' is informal; 'Yes' is more appropriate in formal speaking. Maintain present simple 'are' for general truths.

× Myself, many people don't bike on the weekend, especially they packed with a burger.

✓ For example, many people don't ride bikes on weekends; instead they often ride with a packed burger or bring food.

'Myself' is incorrect here; use a phrase like 'for example' or omit it. 'Bike' as a verb is informal; 'ride bikes' or 'ride a bike' is better. 'On the weekend' should be 'on weekends' for habitual actions. The clause 'especially they packed with a burger' is ungrammatical: 'packed with a burger' needs a subject and verb, e.g. 'they often bring a packed burger' or 'they ride with a packed burger.' Clarify meaning and fix word order.
