Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Ответьте прямо в начале: “Yes, I did.” Фраза “my parents gifted me a bike” звучит менее естественно, чем “my parents gave me a bike”, а для завершённого события лучше сказать “my elder sister taught me to ride it”. Можно добавить конкретную деталь, например, где вы учились кататься.

例: Yes, I did. My parents gave me a bike when I was a child, and my elder sister taught me to ride it in our neighbourhood.

提案: Начните с чёткого ответа и завершите мысль: ответ обрывается на “we don't have”. Уберите повторы и слова-паразиты, замените “problematical” на более естественное “difficult” или “impractical”. Не повторяйте “bike bikes”; уточните, что именно ограничивает популярность велосипедов, например холодная зима и скользкие дороги.
