Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your answer responds directly, but “any bike” sounds unnatural in this affirmative statement, and “when I was a child” is more idiomatic than “in my childhood.” Use “a bike” or “a bicycle.” You could add a brief reason or detail to develop your answer.

例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family lived close to school, so I usually walked instead.

提案: You answer the question clearly and give relevant reasons. To sound more natural and avoid repeating “they,” you could briefly explain how people use bikes or give a specific example. “In my country” is also a natural alternative to “in our country.”

例: Yes, they’re very popular in my country, especially in cities. Many people ride bicycles to work or to nearby shops because they’re convenient and inexpensive.

× I didn't have any bike in my childhood.

✓ I didn't have a bike in my childhood.

In this sentence, bike is a singular countable noun, so it needs an article. Use a before bike. Another natural option is I didn't have any bikes in my childhood, using any with the plural countable noun.
