Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Use the past tense because the question asks about your childhood: say “Yes, I did,” not “Yes, I have.” Add one specific detail, such as what kind of bike you had, when you used it, or where you rode it. This will make your answer more natural, complete, and effective.

例: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bike when I was about eight years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends.

提案: Your answer is relevant, but it is too brief to fully develop your response. After stating your opinion, give a clear reason and a specific example, such as bikes being affordable, convenient, or environmentally friendly. Use a linking word such as “because” to connect your ideas.

例: Yes, absolutely. Bikes are very popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient, especially in crowded cities. Many people use them to commute to work or school and to avoid traffic jams.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

The question uses the simple past tense: Did you have a bike...? The short answer should repeat the auxiliary verb did, not use have. Use Yes, I did or No, I didn't when answering a past-tense question with did.
