Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be direct and use past tense consistently; avoid repetition and add a brief reason or memory. Keep it natural and within 1–3 sentences. Use a linking phrase if you add a reason.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because I preferred walking with my friends. However, I remember sometimes borrowing my cousin’s bike to ride in the park.

提案: Give a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (uh, right), and correct grammar (use plural/singular consistently and comparative forms). Provide one or two specific reasons or examples, linked logically.

例: Yes, bicycles and two‑wheelers are very popular in my country. For example, many people prefer two‑wheelers because they are cheaper and easier to park, especially in crowded cities with heavy traffic.

× No, I do not have a bike.

✓ No, I did not have a bike.

The question asks about the past ('when you were a child'), so the response should use past tense. 'Do not have' is present; correct is 'did not have'. Use past simple to match the time reference. Suggestion: Use past simple for states in the past: 'I did not have a bike.'

× When I was a child, I did not like driving.

✓ When I was a child, I did not like riding bikes.

'Driving' normally refers to cars; for bicycles use 'riding'. The sentence already uses past tense correctly, but the verb choice is wrong for the context. Replace 'driving' with 'riding bikes' or 'riding a bike' to be precise. Suggestion: Say 'I did not like riding bikes' or 'I did not like riding a bike.'

× Of course, it is the primary mode of transportation here.

✓ Of course, they are a primary mode of transportation here.

The question asks about 'bikes' (plural). The student used singular 'it' and 'is', creating a mismatch with the plural subject. Use plural pronoun and verb agreement: 'they are' or rephrase to 'Bikes are a primary mode of transportation here.' Suggestion: Use 'Bikes are a primary mode of transportation here.'

× People use UH-2 Wheelers, more than 4 Wheelers here, uh, due to traffic and it's more easier to navigate, right?

✓ People use two-wheelers more than four-wheelers here because of traffic, and it's easier to navigate.

Multiple issues: 'UH-2 Wheelers' and '4 Wheelers' are nonstandard; use 'two-wheelers' and 'four-wheelers'. 'More than four-wheelers' should be 'more than four-wheelers' placed correctly. 'Due to' is acceptable but 'because of' is clearer for causal clauses. 'More easier' is incorrect—'easier' already comparative; 'more' is redundant. Remove 'more' and say 'easier'. Also remove filler 'uh' and 'right' in formal response. Suggestion: 'People use two-wheelers more than four-wheelers here because of traffic, and it's easier to navigate.'
