Did you have a bike when you were a child?
スコア: 48.0提案: 回答切题,但“in the age of junior school”表达不自然,而且谈过去的经历应使用过去时“had”,而不是“have”。可以直接说明你小时候是否有自行车,再补充一个具体细节,例如何时骑车或通常在哪里骑。
例: Yes, I had a bike when I was in primary school. I often rode it around my neighborhood after school.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
スコア: 30.0提案: 先直接回答问题,并用复数“bikes”或“cycling”表达自行车很受欢迎。“because I can sing”与问题无关,建议改为说明自行车受欢迎的原因,例如方便、便宜或环保。“Many people will buy a bike”不够具体,也不自然地表达了普遍现象;可以改为“many people use bikes”并补充相关场景。
例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. They are affordable and convenient for short journeys, so many people use them to commute or run errands.
× Yes, in the age of junior school, I have a bike.
✓ Yes, when I was in junior school, I had a bike.
“in the age of junior school”不是自然、正确的表达。可以说“when I was in junior school”(我上初中时)。
× Yes, in the age of junior school, I have a bike.
✓ Yes, when I was in junior school, I had a bike.
问题问的是小时候是否有自行车,指过去的经历,因此应将现在时“have”改为过去式“had”。回答过去发生的事情时,要使用一般过去时。
× Yes, I think bike is very popular in my country because I can sing.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular in my country because I can sing.
这里泛指自行车这一类事物,应使用复数“bikes”,并将与之搭配的“is”改为“are”。泛指可数名词时,通常使用复数形式。
× Many people will buy a bike.
✓ Many people buy bikes.
这里是在说明自行车目前是否受欢迎,表达一般情况应使用一般现在时“buy”,而不是表示将来行为的“will buy”。泛指人们通常会做的事时,可使用一般现在时。
