Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer directly, then explain the difference between what you and your sister used. Correct the phrasing “used to have quite great time” to “used to have a great time,” and avoid the unclear phrase “walking with the bike and hoverboot.” Keep the response concise and use a specific detail if you can.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike as a child, but my sister did. I had a hoverboard instead, and she often rode her bike around our neighborhood after school.

提案: Give a clear yes-or-no answer and support it with one relevant reason or example. Use “bikes,” not “spikes,” and “teenagers,” not “teenager.” The second sentence is difficult to follow; replace “myriad people commutes” and “walk by bus” with natural phrasing such as “many people commute by bike or bus.”

例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among teenagers and people who live in cities. Many people cycle to school or work because it is an affordable and environmentally friendly way to get around.

× I had a hoverboard and my sister used to have, uh, quite great time while walking with the bike and hoverboot.

✓ I had a hoverboard, and my sister used to have, uh, quite a great time while walking with the bike and hoverboot.

The singular countable noun time needs an article in this expression. Use a great time, not great time. Remember to use an article before singular countable nouns.

× Yeah, spikes are quite popular in my country amongst teenager, but a society continues to evolve, uh, taking into consideration the current ecological problems, myriad people commutes, uh, to walk by bus, by bike.

✓ Yeah, spikes are quite popular in my country amongst teenagers, but a society continues to evolve, uh, taking into consideration the current ecological problems, myriad people commutes, uh, to walk by bus, by bike.

Teenager refers to people generally here, so it should be plural: teenagers. Use a plural noun when referring to a group of people in general.

× Yeah, spikes are quite popular in my country amongst teenager, but a society continues to evolve, uh, taking into consideration the current ecological problems, myriad people commutes, uh, to walk by bus, by bike.

✓ Yeah, spikes are quite popular in my country amongst teenager, but a society continues to evolve, uh, taking into consideration the current ecological problems, myriad people commute, uh, to walk by bus, by bike.

The subject people is plural, so it takes the plural verb commute, not commutes. Match the verb form to the subject's number.
