Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer the examiner's question directly instead of repeating it. Start with a clear yes/no statement, then add one or two specific details, such as when you got the bike, how often you used it, or where you rode it. Use a linking word such as “because” or “so” to connect your ideas naturally.

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was about eight years old. I often rode it around my neighborhood after school, especially at weekends. It was a little too big for me at first, but I gradually learned to ride it confidently.

提案: Give a more natural and precise answer. “All bikes are popular” is unclear because it sounds as if every type of bike is equally popular. Explain how popular bicycles are in your country and support your opinion with specific reasons or examples, such as commuting, exercise, or environmental concerns.

例: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially among students and people who live in smaller cities. Many people use them for short trips because they are inexpensive and convenient. In addition, cycling has become more common as people become more concerned about their health and the environment.

× Yes, all bikes are popular.

✓ Yes, bikes are popular in my country.

The quantifier all suggests that every individual bike is popular, which is not the intended meaning. When talking about bikes as a general category, use the plural noun bikes without a quantifier. Adding in my country also directly answers the examiner’s question.
