Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a direct topic sentence saying whether you had a bike, then add one or two brief supporting details (age, how often you rode, who taught you) using a linking word. Keep it natural and under five sentences.

例: Yes, I did. I got my first bike when I was seven, and I rode it almost every day after school. For example, my father taught me in the park, and I used to ride with my friends on weekends.

提案: The answer is understandable but grammatically incorrect and hesitant. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct the grammar, and give specific supporting reasons or examples linked with words like because or for example. Use a wider range of vocabulary (e.g., common, widespread, practical) and avoid filler sounds.

例: I don't think bicycles are very popular in my country because most people prefer cars and public transport. For instance, city streets are busy and there are few dedicated bike lanes, so cycling is less common for daily commuting.

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

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

The sentence repeats the phrase 'when you' causing a redundancy and broken sentence structure (Grammar Problem Type ID 26). Remove the duplicated words to form a correct, concise question: 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?'. Ensure you read the sentence aloud to catch accidental repetitions.

× MMM, I think uh bikes not popular in my country.

✓ MMM, I think bikes are not popular in my country.

The original sentence omits the auxiliary verb 'are' required for the present simple negative with plural subject 'bikes', which creates a subject-verb agreement and auxiliary usage error (Grammar Problem Type IDs 27 and 3/6). Use the correct form 'bikes are not' or contracted 'bikes aren't' to make the negative present-tense statement grammatically correct. Also avoid filler hesitation in formal responses.
