Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Make the response more natural and concise, start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid redundant articles and use natural phrasing (e.g., “Yes, I had a bike” not “the bike”).

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I rode it to school and around the neighborhood almost every day, and it helped me feel independent and confident. For example, I would cycle three miles each way to visit my grandparents on weekends.

제안: Provide a clear topic sentence, then give specific reasons or examples using linking words to make the answer coherent. Use correct subject-verb agreement (bikes are), and avoid vague phrases like “everywhere” without support.

예시: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. For instance, many people use bicycles for short commutes and shopping because they are cheap and convenient, and cities have been adding bike lanes to encourage cycling.

× Yes, I had the bike when I was a child.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The definite article 'the' implies a specific bike already known to listener, but the question 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' asks generally. Use the indefinite article 'a' for nonspecific singular nouns. Suggestion: use 'a' when mentioning something for the first time or when it is not a particular item.'

× It is quite popular, it is everywhere and a lot of people are still using it nowadays.

✓ They are quite popular: they are everywhere and a lot of people still use them nowadays.

The student used singular pronoun 'it' to refer to 'bikes,' which is plural; this causes subject-pronoun disagreement. Use plural pronoun 'they' and plural verb forms. Also, 'are still using' is grammatically acceptable but 'still use' is more natural for habitual action. Suggestion: match pronouns and verbs to the number (singular/plural) of the noun they refer to and use present simple for general facts or habits.
