Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer is short and contains tense and grammar errors. Use past tense for past experiences and give a brief reason or detail to expand. Keep it natural and within 3–5 sentences. Use a clear topic sentence, then add one supporting detail linked with a connector (e.g., "because" or "so").

例: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family lived in the city and we usually walked or took buses. However, I sometimes borrowed a neighbour's bike to ride in the park.

提案: Your answer addresses the question but is unclear and has grammar and word-choice problems. Organise your response: start with a clear topic sentence, then give two specific reasons using linking words (e.g., "because", "also"). Avoid filler words and use correct grammar and vocabulary (e.g., "call a taxi" instead of "phone a car").

例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are cheap to buy and easy to maintain. Also, many people use bikes for short trips or to avoid traffic, even though taxis are available for longer journeys.

× No, I don't have any.

✓ No, I didn't.

The question asked about the past ('Did you have... when you were a child?'), so the response should use past tense. 'I don't have any' is present tense and incomplete (what any what?). Use the past simple short answer 'No, I didn't.' to correctly match tense and be concise. Suggestion: Answer past-tense yes/no questions with 'Yes, I did.' or 'No, I didn't.'; if giving more detail, use past simple e.g. 'No, I didn't have a bike.'.

× Yes, in our country bikes are very popular 'cause here's, uh, people can actually phone a car if they want to, so they usually got a bike for their expenses.

✓ Yes, in our country bikes are very popular because here, people can actually afford a car if they want to, but they usually get a bike to save on expenses.

This sentence contains multiple issues addressed with allowed types: pronoun misuse and sentence structure. 'Here's' is incorrect in context; use 'here' (adverb), not 'here's' (contraction of 'here is'). 'Phone a car' is incorrect word choice; likely intended 'afford a car'. 'Got' is informal past or incorrect form; use present simple 'get' for habitual action or 'usually own'/'usually have'. Pronoun 'they' is fine but the clause ordering and connectors are awkward. The corrected sentence uses 'because' instead of colloquial ''cause', 'here' correctly, 'afford' for purchasing ability, and 'get a bike to save on expenses' to express purpose. Suggestions: Replace informal spoken contractions with standard words in writing, use 'afford' for financial capability, and use present simple for habitual actions (they usually get/own a bike).
