Did you have a bike when you were a child?
スコア: 62.0提案: 질문에 직접 답한 점은 좋지만, 과거의 일을 말하므로 “I have”를 “I had”로 고쳐야 합니다. “used to” 뒤에는 동사원형을 사용하므로 “used to ride”가 맞습니다. 또한 “go for meeting my friends” 대신 “meet my friends”라고 표현하세요. 불필요한 머뭇거림을 줄이고, 자전거를 타고 어디에 갔는지 한 가지 구체적인 정보를 덧붙이면 더 자연스럽습니다.
例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it to the shops and to meet my friends after school.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
スコア: 58.0提案: 자전거가 인기 있는 이유로 도로에서 자주 보인다는 점과 교통비가 비싸다는 점을 제시한 것은 적절합니다. 다만 “there are so”는 미완성 표현이므로 삭제하고, “many bikers”보다 이 문맥에서는 “many people cycling”이 더 자연스럽습니다. “because”와 “so”를 함께 사용해 이유와 결과를 분명하게 연결하고, 대중교통이나 자동차와 비교하면 답변이 더 구체적이고 논리적입니다.
例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. I often see people cycling on the roads, and many people choose bikes because public transport can be expensive. They’re also a convenient way to get around short distances.
× I have a bike when I was a child.
✓ I had a bike when I was a child.
The phrase when I was a child refers to a finished period in the past, so use the simple past had instead of the present-tense have. Match the tense of the main verb to the past time reference.
× I used to, uh, riding...
✓ I used to ride...
Used to, when it describes a past habit, is followed by the base form of a verb, not the -ing form. Say used to ride.
× ...go for meeting my friends.
✓ ...go to meet my friends.
Go for meeting is not the correct construction for this meaning. Use go to meet someone, where to introduces the purpose of going.
× ...because I can see many bikers on the road and there are so and transportation is too expensive so I guess many people use bicycles.
✓ ...because I can see many bikers on the road, and transportation is too expensive, so I guess many people use bicycles.
There are so is an incomplete, abandoned clause and does not connect grammatically to the rest of the sentence. Remove the fragment and connect the complete ideas with and and so.
