Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Improve grammar (use past tense consistently), reduce redundancy, and make the answer more concise and natural. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Also correct verb forms and word choices (e.g., "I had a bike," "bought it from a local store near where I lived," "kept it for almost five years").

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My father bought it from a local shop near our home, and I kept it for almost five years before it became too worn to repair.

提案: Make the response more natural and organized: begin with a direct opinion, then give one or two specific reasons linked with simple cohesive devices. Avoid awkward phrases and use accurate vocabulary (e.g., "eco-friendly," "environment"). Keep sentences concise and grammatically correct.

例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. Firstly, many people choose them as an eco-friendly way to travel, and secondly they are cheap to run since they don't use petrol, which helps reduce pollution.

× Yes, I have a bike before.

✓ Yes, I had a bike before.

The speaker is referring to a past situation (childhood), so the past simple tense 'had' should be used instead of the present simple 'have'. Use past tense for completed past events. Suggestion: Use 'had' when talking about possessions in the past (e.g., 'I had a bike when I was a child').

× I remember when I was a kid, my father bought it in a local store around the area to where I'm living at that time.

✓ I remember when I was a kid, my father bought it at a local store near where we were living at that time.

Multiple issues: location and tense. 'Bought' is correct past tense, but the preposition should be 'at' for a store and 'near where we were living' is the correct relative phrase. 'I'm living' is present continuous and incorrect for a past reference; use 'we were living'. Suggestion: Keep past tense throughout when telling past events and use 'at' for stores and 'near/around' for locations.

× I have that bike for almost five years until it was worn out and couldn't be repaired anymore.

✓ I had that bike for almost five years until it was worn out and couldn't be repaired anymore.

The sentence describes a past duration that ended, so the past simple 'had' is needed instead of present 'have'. The rest of the clause correctly uses past tense ('was worn out', 'couldn't be repaired'). Suggestion: Use past tense for possession that lasted in the past (e.g., 'I had it for five years').

× Yes, it is popular nowadays because people are open now in a green form of transportation and we all know that bike is 1 of it because it does not consume any gasoline or petrol that hurt the environment right now.

✓ Yes, they are popular nowadays because people are more open to green forms of transportation, and we all know that bikes are one of them because they do not consume gasoline or petrol, which harms the environment.

Several problems: subject agreement and tense. 'It is popular' should be 'they are popular' because 'bikes' is plural. 'Open to' is the correct preposition. 'Form' should be plural 'forms'. 'Bike is 1 of it' is incorrect: use 'bikes are one of them'. 'Does not consume' can remain present since it's a general fact, but pronoun agreement requires 'they do not consume'. 'That hurt the environment right now' is awkward; use a defining clause 'which harms the environment' and avoid 'right now' for general statements. Suggestion: Ensure plural subjects and verbs agree, use correct prepositions ('open to'), and use relative clauses ('which harms') for effects.
