Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer directly, then explain what happened using clear, natural wording. “Rugged it off” is not the right expression here; if you mean you damaged the bike, say “I damaged it” or “I broke it.” Use a linking phrase such as “because” to connect the reason, and avoid repeating the same idea. Name the trick as a “wheelie.”

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, but I damaged it after only three months. I was trying to do wheelies and was too rough with it, so it didn’t last very long.

提案: Give a direct answer and support it with one specific reason or example. Avoid repeating “bikes are popular,” and make clear whether you mean bicycles or motorbikes, since “bike” can refer to either. Use a natural phrase such as “very popular” or “quite common.”

例: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. Many people use them for short trips because they’re affordable and convenient, and some people also ride them for exercise.

× Yeah, I had a bike in my childhood and I just rugged it off very harshly after just three months like doing that all that strength on my bike like doing that willy like a thing all that.

✓ Yeah, I had a bike when I was a child, but I damaged it after just three months by putting too much strain on it while trying to do a wheelie.

The phrases beginning with like doing are incomplete and do not connect grammatically to the main clause. Combine the ideas into a complete sentence, using a clear clause to explain what happened. The correction also uses damaged it to express the intended meaning clearly.

× Yeah, bikes are popular very much like I was just talking about cycles. Bikes are very popular.

✓ Yeah, bikes are very popular. As I was just saying, bicycles are popular.

Very much is placed awkwardly after popular. In this sentence, very should come before the adjective popular to intensify it. Separating the ideas also makes the response easier to follow.
