Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Improve grammar, clarity and coherence. Start with a clear topic sentence (past tense), then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Use correct verbs and collocations (e.g., “I had,” “I rode my bike,” “children’s bikes”). Avoid redundancy and keep it under five sentences.

예시: Yes, I had several bikes when I was a child. For example, I owned a small kids’ bike and later a mountain bike, and I often rode them around my neighborhood. Because my parents lived near a park, I usually rode with friends on weekends, which helped me become confident on different types of terrain.

제안: Provide a more balanced, specific answer with reasons and a linking word. Begin with a clear opinion, then support it with two concise, specific reasons or an exception. Use comparative or contextual vocabulary (e.g., “generally,” “however,” “in urban areas”).

예시: Generally, I don’t think bikes are very popular across the Philippines because the climate is often hot and humid, which makes cycling uncomfortable for long periods. However, cycling is becoming more common in some cities where bike lanes and weekend cycling events encourage people to ride for exercise and commuting.

× When I was a kid I have lots of bikes like mountain bikes and for kids and I usually do bike.

✓ When I was a kid I had lots of bikes, such as mountain bikes and bikes for children, and I usually rode a bike.

The sentence mixes past and present tense: 'When I was a kid' establishes past time, so verbs must be past tense. 'have' should be 'had' (past tense) and 'do bike' is incorrect; use 'rode a bike' for past habitual action. Also improve clarity by using 'such as' and 'bikes for children' instead of 'for kids'. Suggestions: keep verb tenses consistent with the time frame, use appropriate verbs for activities (ride/rode), and use clearer noun phrases. Grammar problem type ID:6

× I don't think so because here in the Philippines it is too hot to ride a bike.

✓ I don't think so because here in the Philippines it is too hot to ride a bike.

The sentence is grammatically correct: present simple 'I don't think' expresses a current opinion, and the explanation 'it is too hot to ride a bike' correctly uses present simple to describe a general truth. No change needed. However, as a style improvement, you could say 'it's too hot to go cycling' or 'it's usually too hot to ride a bike' to emphasize habit. Grammar problem type ID:6
