Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: The student simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. To improve, respond directly with a clear topic sentence stating whether you had a bike, then add one or two brief supporting details (why you had or didn't have one, a memory, or how often you used it). Keep it natural and concise (no more than 4–5 sentences) and use a linking word if you add details (for example, "because" or "so").

예시: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child. I used it almost every day to ride to my friend’s house and to the park, which helped me become more independent. Because my parents lived nearby, I felt safe riding around the neighborhood.

제안: This answer directly addresses the question and gives several reasons, which is good. To improve further, make the response more natural and specific: avoid listing too many general uses without examples, use a linking phrase to connect ideas, and be concise. Include one specific example or a brief statistic to strengthen your point and vary vocabulary (e.g., "commute" → "travel to work"). Keep to 2–4 sentences.

예시: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because many people use them to travel to work and for exercise. For example, in my city there are dedicated bike lanes and I see thousands of commuters cycling every morning, which makes biking both convenient and safe.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ I had a bike when I was a child.

The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26). The response should be a declarative sentence in the past tense to match the question. Suggestion: respond directly with a past-tense statement (subject + past verb), e.g., 'I had a bike when I was a child.'

× Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because they are used for recreational purposes, exercise, and most people commute to work using bikes.

✓ Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because people use them for recreational purposes, for exercise, and many commute to work by bike.

The original sentence mixes plural noun phrasing awkwardly and repeats 'bikes' unnecessarily, and the phrasing 'commute to work using bikes' is less natural. This is primarily a present tense/style issue (ID 6). Use consistent present simple verbs and refer back to 'bikes' with the pronoun 'them'; use the more natural prepositional phrase 'commute by bike'. Suggestion: use present simple consistently, replace repeated nouns with pronouns, and use natural collocations like 'commute by bike.'
