Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a slightly longer, natural response that directly answers and then adds one specific reason or brief detail. Use a topic sentence then a supporting detail connected with a linking word (e.g., because, so, but). Keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences). Avoid fillers like “uh.”

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because my family couldn’t afford one. However, I sometimes rode a neighbour’s bike on weekends, which was great fun.

提案: Make the sentence natural and grammatically correct, start with a clear opinion, then give one or two specific supporting reasons using linking words (for example, because or especially). Remove hesitation words. Keep it brief and coherent.

例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For example, in cities you often see commuters cycling to work, especially during warm months.

× Yes, uh, this is a popular in my country.

✓ Yes, uh, bikes are popular in my country.

The original sentence uses the demonstrative 'this' with the adjective 'popular' and lacks a noun to refer to; this is incorrect. The speaker intends to make a general statement about bikes, so use the plural noun 'bikes' with the verb 'are' to match plurality. Also remove the article 'a' before 'popular' because 'popular' is an adjective and needs a noun (or be predicative after a form of be): say 'bikes are popular' or 'it is popular' with a noun. Suggestion: use 'Bikes are popular in my country' or 'Cycling is popular in my country' for clarity.
