Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer the question directly, then give one clear reason and a brief explanation. Use the past tense consistently: say “when I was a child,” “we couldn’t afford one,” and “we didn’t have anyone to teach us how to ride.” Avoid unclear expressions such as “we used to live only girls at home” and unnecessary repetition of “we could not.”

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family couldn’t afford one at the time because there were several girls in our household and we had limited money. Also, none of us knew how to ride a bike, so we never bought one.

提案: Begin with a clear answer: “Yes, bikes are very popular in my country.” Use the correct noun “bikes,” not “air specs,” and avoid repeating the same idea. Support your opinion with specific reasons, such as affordability, convenience, and their use for commuting. Pay attention to subject–verb agreement: say “everyone has a bike” or “most households have a bike.”

例: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. Most households have at least one because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys. Many people use them to commute to work or school, especially in areas with heavy traffic.

× when we were child

✓ when we were children

The subject we refers to more than one person, so the plural noun children is required instead of the singular noun child.

× we used to live only girls at home

✓ there were only girls at home

Use there were to introduce the existence or presence of plural people. The plural noun girls requires were, not was.

× We don't have anyone to drive.

✓ We didn't have anyone to drive.

The question asks about the student's childhood, so the answer should use the past tense. Change don't have to didn't have.

× We don't have anyone to ride it.

✓ We didn't have anyone to ride it.

This statement also refers to the past, so the past form didn't have is needed instead of the present form don't have.

× everyone have bike

✓ everyone has a bike

Everyone is grammatically singular, so it takes has rather than have. The singular countable noun bike also needs the indefinite article a.

× everyone have bike

✓ everyone has a bike

Bike is a singular countable noun, so it cannot appear without an article. Use a bike when referring to one nonspecific bike.

× It's every house has one bike in our country

✓ Every household in our country has a bike.

The original sentence incorrectly combines It's with a complete clause. Begin directly with the subject Every household and use the normal subject-verb structure.

× it's very much affordable

✓ it is very affordable

Very is the natural adverb for modifying the adjective affordable. Very much is generally used with verbs, not with this adjective.

× and it's the most

✓ and this makes them very popular

The phrase the most is incomplete because it does not clearly state what is being compared. Use a complete clause with a subject and a verb, such as this makes them very popular.
