Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a slightly longer, natural response with one supporting detail and a linking word. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add a brief specific detail (what kind of bike, how often you used it, or a short memory). Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I did — I had a small red bicycle with training wheels when I was about six. I rode it almost every day around my neighborhood, and it was how I learned to be confident on the road. Because of that, I still enjoy casual cycling now.

提案: Provide a clearer opinion with reasons and a linking word to make your answer coherent. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add 1–2 specific reasons or comparisons (e.g., traffic, public transport, culture) to support your view. Avoid filler words like 'honestly' unless used to emphasize contrast.

例: Not really — bikes aren’t very popular in my country because traffic is heavy and there is little safe cycling infrastructure. Furthermore, many people prefer cars or motorbikes for convenience, so cycling is mostly seen as a leisure activity rather than a daily commute.

× Bikes are not very popular here honestly.

✓ Bikes are not very popular here, honestly.

This sentence needs a comma before the sentence adverb honestly to improve clarity and natural rhythm. The primary issue is adverb placement (Grammar Problem Type ID 20). Placing honestly at the end without punctuation can make the sentence feel abrupt; inserting a comma separates the speaker's comment from the main clause. Suggestion: use a comma before sentence adverbs like honestly (or move the adverb earlier: 'Honestly, bikes are not very popular here').
