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 statement, such as whether you had a bike or not, and add one specific detail or reason. Also, avoid repeating "when you have you were"; the correct phrase is "when you were a child."

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it around my neighborhood with my friends, especially at weekends.

提案: You repeated the question rather than giving your opinion. Start with a direct answer, such as "Yes, I think bikes are quite popular," and support it with a specific reason or example. Use the plural noun "bikes" because you are talking about bicycles in general.

例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among university students and people who want to exercise. In large cities, many people also use them to avoid traffic.

× Did you have a bike when you have you were a child?

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?

The question asks about a past situation, so the verb in the time clause must be in the past tense: were, not have. The extra words have you should be removed. Use when + subject + past-tense verb to describe a past time.

× Do you think bike are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Bikes is a plural countable noun because the question refers to bicycles in general. Therefore, use the plural form bikes. The plural subject also correctly agrees with are.
