Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Give a full, past-tense response that directly answers the question, then add one or two specific supporting details. Use correct grammar (past tense) and a linking word if you add details. Keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences).

例: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bicycle with training wheels when I was about six, and I used it to ride to my friend’s house every afternoon. Because it was light and easy to handle, I learned to ride without help within a few weeks.

提案: Provide a brief opinion followed by at least one specific reason and an example to support it. Use a linking word (for example, because, so) to organize your answer and speak in full sentences. Avoid one-word replies.

例: Not really. Although some people cycle for exercise, cars and public transport are much more common in my city because distances are long and cycling infrastructure is limited. For example, I rarely see bike lanes, so most people choose buses or cars for daily travel.

× Yes I have

✓ Yes, I had.

The examiner asked about the past (when you were a child), so the student should use past tense. 'Have' is present tense; 'had' is the past tense of 'have'. Also add a comma after 'Yes' for natural written response. Suggestion: use past-tense verbs to match time expressions like 'when you were a child'.

× No.

✓ No, I don't think so.

The question 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' is in the present simple and asks for an opinion. A one-word 'No.' is grammatical but abrupt; a better response keeps present-tense structure: 'I don't think so.' This uses present simple negative 'do not' + base verb to match the question's tense and form. Suggestion: answer with a full present-tense sentence expressing opinion.
