Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Make the answer grammatically correct, more concise and clearer. Start with a direct topic sentence, correct tense errors (use past tense consistently), reduce hesitation fillers (uh), and add one specific supporting detail. Use a linking phrase to connect ideas. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

예시: Yes. I had a tricycle when I was a child, and I often rode it with my neighbor’s friend after 6:00 PM. We usually cycled around our street rather than going far because we were young and it felt safer. It was one of my favourite activities in the evenings.

제안: Improve accuracy and fluency: remove small grammar errors (article use, plural/singular agreement), avoid repetition, and use linking words to contrast past and present. Add one specific example or statistic to make the answer more precise. Keep it to 3–4 sentences.

예시: Yes. Bicycles were very popular when I was a child, mainly for short journeys and for children playing. However, nowadays most people prefer motorbikes and cars because they are faster and save time when commuting. For example, in my city many families own at least one motorbike for daily travel.

× Yes, when I was a child, I have a tricycle bike and I used to, uh, go for a cycling at noon after 6:00 PM with my uh, neighbor, neighbor's friend and we go uh, in our street, not we go far because we are just.

✓ Yes, when I was a child, I had a tricycle and I used to go cycling around 6:00 PM with my neighbor and their friend, and we stayed on our street; we didn't go far.

The sentence mixes past and present tenses. 'When I was a child' sets past time, so use past simple 'had' instead of present 'have'. Also use 'used to go cycling' (habit in the past) and 'we didn't go far' for past negative. Suggestions: keep past tense consistently for actions/habits in childhood, use 'had' for possession in the past, 'used to' + base verb for habitual past actions, use concise phrasing (e.g., 'tricycle' not 'tricycle bike') and correct pronoun for neighbor's friend to 'their friend'.

× Yes, bikes. Bicycles used to be a very popular when I was a child, especially for a short journeys and for child playing.

✓ Yes, bicycles used to be very popular when I was a child, especially for short journeys and for children playing.

Errors: unnecessary 'bikes.' fragment and incorrect article 'a' with plural noun 'journeys' and wrong noun form 'child playing'. Use plural 'journeys' without 'a' and 'children playing' to match plurality. Also 'bicycles used to be very popular'—move 'very' before 'popular' is fine. Suggestions: match singular/plural forms (journeys, children), avoid fragments, and keep consistent plurality. Grammar problem type ID:1

× Nowadays most people rely on motorbikes and cars because they are faster and requires less physical effort and save time when commuting.

✓ Nowadays most people rely on motorbikes and cars because they are faster, require less physical effort, and save time when commuting.

Errors: mixed verb forms and subject-verb agreement. After plural subject 'motorbikes and cars' use base plural verb 'require' not 'requires'. When listing verbs coordinated by 'and', keep the same verb form: 'require' and 'save'. Suggestions: ensure verbs agree with subject number and maintain parallel structure in lists of verbs. Grammar problem type ID:8

× we are just.

✓ we only stayed nearby.

Fragment 'we are just' is ungrammatical and lacks clear verb and object; it also misuses present 'are' when context is past. Use past form and adverb/adjective to complete idea: 'we only stayed nearby' or 'we didn't go far.' Suggestions: complete the clause with a verb and maintain past tense for past events.
