Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be direct, use correct tense and avoid extra words. Start with a clear topic sentence describing past situation, then add a brief supporting detail. Use past tense for childhood and correct verb forms. Link ideas with a short connector if needed.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. In fact, I never learned how to ride one, so my parents usually took me places by car or motorbike.

提案: Answer directly and improve grammar and vocabulary. Use a clear reason with linking words (for example, because, as) and give a specific detail or brief example. Watch subject-verb agreement and article usage.

例: No, I don't think bicycles are very popular in Thailand because traffic can be dangerous for cyclists. For example, many roads lack bike lanes and drivers often drive fast, so people prefer motorbikes or cars.

× Well, I don't have a bike and what's funny is I don't know how to bike

✓ Well, I didn't have a bike, and what's funny is I didn't know how to ride a bike.

The examiner asked about the past ('Did you have a bike when you were a child?'), so the student should use past tense. 'Don't have' and 'don't know' are present tense; change to 'didn't have' and 'didn't know'. Also, 'bike' as a verb is informal; the more natural verb phrase is 'ride a bike'. Use consistent past tense for actions and states in the past. Suggestion: Use past simple for both clauses when talking about childhood: 'I didn't have a bike, and I didn't know how to ride a bike.'

× No I don't think so. I'm from Thailand and in Thailand the Road users quite dangerous for bike.

✓ No, I don't think so. I'm from Thailand, and in Thailand road users are quite dangerous for cyclists.

Multiple issues: first sentence is fine (present tense for general opinion). The second sentence has word order and article problems and missing verb. 'the Road users quite dangerous for bike' lacks a verb and misuses articles and nouns. Correct structure: subject 'road users' + verb 'are' + adjective 'dangerous' + preposition 'for' + plural noun 'cyclists' (or 'bicycles' if referring to bikes). Capitalization: common nouns should not be capitalized ('Road'). Use 'cyclists' for people riding bikes. Suggestion: '...in Thailand, road users are quite dangerous for cyclists.'
