Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more grammatical, concise and clearer. Start with a direct topic sentence (e.g. "Yes, I did") then give one or two specific supporting details. Use correct verb forms and prepositions (e.g. "I lived in a town where many people knew how to ride a bike"). Avoid filler words and repetition. Keep to no more than 3–4 sentences and use a linking phrase if adding a reason (e.g. "because" or "so").

예시: Yes, I did. I grew up in a town where most children learned to ride bikes, so it was common for everyone to have one. I learned when I was about six, and riding was a normal way to get around and play with friends.

제안: Provide a clear main idea first (e.g. "It depends on the region") and then give specific contrasting examples with linking words (e.g. "however", "in contrast"). Correct vocabulary ("cycle" or "ride a bike") and grammar (subject-verb agreement, articles) are important. Avoid hesitation and incomplete sentences; give one or two concrete reasons why usage differs (infrastructure, lifestyle).

예시: It depends on the region. For instance, in modern areas like Selangor people rely more on cars and public transport, so biking is less common; however, in places like Penang many people still use bicycles for short trips because the streets are more bike-friendly and traffic is slower.

× Yes, definitely, because I'm living in a town and people at there usually will know how to, uh, cycling, know how how to cycling.

✓ Yes, definitely, because I live in a town and people there usually know how to cycle.

Errors: 'I'm living' is awkward for a general fact—use simple present 'I live' (present tense issue, ID 6). 'people at there' uses incorrect preposition 'at' before 'there'—remove 'at' (preposition error, ID 11). 'will know how to, uh, cycling' mixes modal 'will' with habitual fact and uses the gerund 'cycling' after 'know how to'—use simple present 'know' and the base verb 'cycle' (third person/modal and verb form errors, IDs 2 and 8). Suggestion: Use simple present for habitual/general truths, remove unnecessary preposition, and use 'know how to' + base verb.

× So I think it is a technique that we must learn when we was a child.

✓ So I think it is a skill that we must learn when we were children.

Errors: 'technique' is an awkward noun here; 'skill' fits better (word choice but treated as adjective/noun use). 'we must learn' is fine, but 'when we was a child' has two errors: 'was' should be 'were' for plural subject 'we' (subject-verb agreement, ID 27) and 'a child' mismatches plural 'we' — use plural 'children' or rephrase as 'when I was a child' for singular. Suggestion: Use 'were' with 'we' and match singular/plural consistently; prefer 'skill' for natural phrasing.

× I think it, it depends, uh, depends on the stage.

✓ I think it depends on the stage.

Errors: Repetition 'it, it' is a fluency/filler problem but grammatically remove duplicate. 'depends on the stage' is acceptable, but the filler 'uh' should be omitted. Use simple present 'depends' for general truth (present tense issue, ID 6). Suggestion: Remove the duplicate and filler to produce a clear sentence.

× Like for example, in Selangor is a quite modern city.

✓ For example, Selangor is quite a modern state.

Errors: Word order/structure is incorrect — 'in Selangor is a quite modern city' should be 'Selangor is quite a modern ...'. Also Selangor is a state, not a city (word choice). 'a quite modern' ordering is awkward; 'quite a modern' is correct (article/adjective order, ID 17 and ID 18). Suggestion: State the subject first ('Selangor is...') and use correct article placement: 'quite a modern'.

× So I don't think people will, uh, really psych cycle every day.

✓ So I don't think people really cycle every day.

Errors: 'psych cycle' appears to be a mistaken phrase; likely intended 'cycle'. Remove filler 'uh'. Using 'will' is unnecessary for a general habit—simple present 'cycle' is correct (future tense/modal vs present tense issue, IDs 7 and 6). Also 'psych' is incorrect word. Suggestion: Use 'people really cycle' to express habitual action.

× But like in my hometown, Penang is not.

✓ But in my hometown, Penang, they are not as common.

Errors: The sentence 'Penang is not' is incomplete and lacks object/detail (sentence without a verb or incomplete predicate, IDs 23 and 26). Better to complete the idea: 'bikes are not as common' or 'they are not' with clear referent. Suggestion: Specify what 'not' refers to: 'they are not as common' or 'bicycles are not common in my hometown, Penang.'
