Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence answering the question, avoid contradictory phrases, correct word choice (bike vs bicycle is fine but don't say both confusingly), and add one or two brief supporting details using linking words. Also correct grammar: use past simple (I didn't have a bike) and avoid unclear clauses.

例: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child. Instead, my family usually walked or took the bus, so I didn't learn to ride until I was a teenager.

提案: Provide a clear main idea and improve accuracy and vocabulary. Use a linking word to introduce a reason, choose correct verbs (ride, not rising), and add a specific example or brief comparison to support your point. Keep answers within 2–4 sentences and avoid vague phrases like 'lots of'.

例: Yes, definitely. Bikes are very popular because many young people use them to commute to university and work. For example, in my city there are dedicated bike lanes and bike-sharing schemes that make cycling convenient and cheap.

× Well, when I was a child, I didn't have any bike where I had a bicycle.

✓ Well, when I was a child, I didn't have a bike; I had a bicycle.

This sentence has several issues: incorrect use of 'any' with a singular countable noun (Article errors, ID 22) and awkward clause 'where I had a bicycle' that breaks sentence structure (Sentence structure errors, ID 26). Use 'a bike' not 'any bike' because singular countable nouns require an article. Replace the confusing clause with a clear contrast using a semicolon or 'but' ('I didn't have a bike; I had a bicycle' or 'I didn't have a bike, but I had a bicycle'). Suggestion: choose one clear connector and use correct articles for countable nouns. Next suggestion applies to the second student sentence.

× Yes, definitely. Bikes are popular in my country because there are lots of young people like bikes for traveling or rising.

✓ Yes, definitely. Bikes are popular in my country because lots of young people like using bikes for travel or riding.

Problems include incorrect verb 'rising' (should be 'riding') which is a wrong word choice/gerund issue (Verb + -ing form, ID 8) and slightly odd preposition/structure 'for traveling' which is better as 'for travel' or 'to travel' (Incorrect use of prepositions, ID 11). Also 'like bikes' is acceptable but more natural is 'like using bikes'. Suggestions: use the correct gerund 'riding' for bicycle activity, prefer 'travel' or 'to travel' after 'for' depending on style, and consider adding 'using' to clarify that people use bikes for transportation.
