Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Make the response more concise and natural. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repeating similar ideas (e.g. "didn't have the courage" and "didn't even try" are redundant) and use correct collocations ("ride a bike", not "drive a bike"). Also keep it under 5 sentences.

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, but I never learned to ride it. For example, I was afraid of falling and my parents were busy, so no one taught me. As a result, I still can’t ride a bicycle confidently today.

제안: Answer directly, then give one or two specific reasons using linking words and correct grammar. Correct collocations ("bike lanes", "ride a bike", "children") and verb forms are important. Keep sentences clear and avoid repetition.

예시: No, bicycles aren’t very popular in my country. One reason is that we lack dedicated bike lanes, so riding can be dangerous; consequently, many parents are reluctant to let their children ride bikes outdoors.

× Yeah, honestly, I did have a bike when I was a child, but I didn't have the courage to learn how to ride a bike, so I didn't even try it.

✓ Yes, honestly, I had a bike when I was a child, but I didn't have the courage to learn how to ride it, so I never tried.

The original uses 'did have' which is grammatically correct but unnecessary; simple past 'had' is more natural. 'Didn't even try it' is wordy and 'it' is redundant after 'ride a bike'; 'ride it' or 'ride a bike' is sufficient. 'Never tried' is more concise and natural than 'didn't even try'. Use consistent simple past tense for past events and avoid auxiliary emphasis unless contrasting.

× And eventually, until now, I still don't know how to drive a bike properly.

✓ And even now, I still don't know how to ride a bike properly.

'Drive a bike' is incorrect collocation; we 'ride' a bicycle. 'Eventually, until now' is contradictory: 'eventually' suggests a change over time, while 'until now' indicates continuation. 'Even now' or 'still' alone expresses the ongoing state. Keep present tense 'don't know' for a current inability.

× To be honest, bicycles are not really popular in my country as we don't have proper lands for bicycles only.

✓ To be honest, bicycles are not really popular in my country because we don't have roads or spaces dedicated only to bicycles.

'Lands for bicycles only' is unnatural. Use 'roads' or 'spaces' and 'dedicated to bicycles' or 'for bicycles only'. Also use 'because' rather than 'as' for clearer cause in spoken English. Correct preposition and word choice improves clarity.

× So a lot of parents afraid to let their child children drive a bike around.

✓ So a lot of parents are afraid to let their children ride a bike around.

Missing verb 'are' causes ungrammatical clause; this is also subject-verb agreement issue. 'Child children' is incorrect redundancy; use plural 'children'. Use 'ride' not 'drive' for bicycles. The corrected sentence adds the verb 'are' and fixes the pronoun/plural noun.
