Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: You repeated the examiner’s question instead of answering it. Respond directly with a clear topic sentence, such as whether you had a bike, and then add one specific detail or memory. For example, mention who gave it to you, where you rode it, or how often you used it.

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My parents bought me a small red one when I was about seven, and I often rode it around our neighborhood with my friends.

提案: Give your opinion more directly instead of beginning with “I wouldn’t say it’s not popular,” which is confusing. Avoid redundancy and informal fillers such as “really into biking a lot,” “like,” and “so-so, like 50-50.” Use accurate phrases such as “I’m not much of a cyclist” and support your balanced opinion with a specific comparison between enthusiasts and ordinary people.

例: I’d say bikes are moderately popular in my country. Many people cycle for exercise or as a hobby, although most people still prefer cars or public transportation for commuting. For example, my boyfriend owns an expensive bike and rides regularly, but I’m not much of a cyclist myself.

× He is really into biking a lot.

✓ He is really into biking.

The expression really into biking already means that he likes biking very much, so a lot is redundant here. You can also say, He likes biking a lot.

× I'm not really that as a biker.

✓ I'm not really much of a biker.

The structure that as a biker is incorrect. To describe someone as not being strongly involved in an activity, use not much of a + noun, as in I'm not much of a biker.

× So probably so so like 5050.

✓ So, it's probably about 50-50.

The original expression is incomplete because it does not contain a main verb. Use it's probably about 50-50 to form a complete sentence. Also, write 50-50 with a hyphen.
