Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers (uh, umm), correct grammar (remove redundant pronouns), and add one specific supporting detail. Keep to 2–4 sentences and use a linking word when adding detail.

例: Yes. I had a blue bicycle my father bought for me when I was eight, and I used to ride it almost every afternoon. For example, I often cycled to the park with my cousins, where we raced and practiced tricks until sunset.

提案: Give a direct opinion first, then two clear, specific reasons linked logically. Avoid overgeneralization and fillers; use varied vocabulary (popular, common, widespread) and a linking word like 'because' or 'also'. Limit to 2–4 sentences.

例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. This is mainly because the climate is mild, which makes cycling comfortable year-round, and also because many cities have bike lanes that make riding safe and convenient.

× Ah, yes, when I was, uh, eight years old, my father bought a blue bicycle for me, uh, that I really like it.

✓ Ah, yes, when I was eight years old, my father bought me a blue bicycle that I really liked.

The sentence mixes past simple ('bought') with present simple ('like it'), causing tense inconsistency. Also 'bought a blue bicycle for me' is more naturally phrased as 'bought me a blue bicycle'. Remove the extra pronoun 'it' after 'liked'. Suggestion: keep past tense consistently when describing past events (use 'liked' instead of 'like'), use 'bought me' for natural phrasing, and avoid redundant pronouns.

× And most of the time, umm, I was cycling and, uh, having fun with my cousins or our neighbors.

✓ Most of the time I cycled and had fun with my cousins or our neighbors.

The original mixes past continuous ('was cycling' and 'having fun') with narration; simple past ('cycled' and 'had fun') is more appropriate for habitual actions in the past. Use parallel verb forms ('cycled' and 'had') for clarity and conciseness.

× They're so popular because, uh, nowadays all the women, most of the women are like to, umm, ride a bike, uh, and the weather is so good and cool and cycling is so enjoyable and uh, I love it too.

✓ They're very popular because nowadays many women like to ride bikes, and the weather is pleasant and cycling is enjoyable; I like it too.

'All the women, most of the women' is redundant and unclear; use 'many women' or 'most women'. 'Are like to' is incorrect structure; correct is 'like to'. Use plural 'bikes' when speaking generally. Simplify repeated fillers and maintain parallel structure. This keeps meaning while correcting quantifier and verb usage.
