Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer directly using the past tense because the question refers to your childhood. The phrase “since born” is unnatural; say “since I was born” or, more naturally, “when I was a child.” Add a brief reason or detail to make your answer more complete.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it was unsafe for me to ride on the busy roads near our home.

提案: Use the plural form “bikes,” the verb “are,” and the expression “popular in my country,” not “a popular of my country.” Begin with a clear opinion and support it with a specific reason or comparison.

例: No, bikes aren’t very popular in my country. Most people prefer to use cars or public transport because the roads are busy and there are not many bicycle lanes.

× No, I don't have a bike since born.

✓ No, I haven't had a bike since I was born.

The present simple form don't have is not appropriate with since when describing a situation that began in the past and continues to the present. Use the present perfect, haven't had, for this meaning.

× No, I don't have a bike since born.

✓ No, I haven't had a bike since I was born.

The phrase since born is incomplete because born needs a subject and a verb. Use the complete clause since I was born.

× No bike is not a popular of my country.

✓ No, bikes are not popular in my country.

The question refers to bikes in general, so use the plural noun bikes rather than the singular form bike.

× No bike is not a popular of my country.

✓ No, bikes are not popular in my country.

The plural subject bikes requires the plural verb are, not the singular verb is.

× No bike is not a popular of my country.

✓ No, bikes are not popular in my country.

Use the preposition in when referring to a place or country. The phrase popular of my country is incorrect; use popular in my country.

× No bike is not a popular of my country.

✓ No, bikes are not popular in my country.

Popular is an adjective, not a countable noun, so it cannot be preceded by the article a in this sentence. Use bikes are not popular.
