Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more natural and expand slightly with one supporting detail. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give a reason or short example. Use linking words like “because” or “so” to connect ideas. Keep it to 1–3 sentences and avoid repetition (don’t repeat “when I was a child”).

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike as a child because my family couldn’t afford one. So I usually walked to my friends’ houses or took the bus when I needed to go farther.

제안: Respond directly and use present tense for general statements. Provide a specific reason and one example, linking ideas with words like “however,” “because,” or “therefore.” Avoid hesitation and repetition. Keep it to 2–3 concise sentences.

예시: No, bicycles aren’t very popular in my country because public transport is cheap and convenient. For example, most people walk to nearby places or take a local community bus to work or school.

× No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.

No correction needed. The sentence correctly uses the past simple negative 'didn't have' to describe possession in the past, matching the examiner's past-tense question. Keep using past simple for completed past situations.

× No, it wasn't popular in our country.

✓ No, they aren't very popular in my country.

The student refers to bikes in general, so use plural 'they' and present tense 'aren't' because the examiner asked about current popularity. Use 'my country' not 'our country' when speaking about general national context from the student's perspective. This fixes subject reference and tense to match the question asking about present situation.

× Uh, mostly we took a walk on our on our way to school or a bus, a community bus.

✓ Usually we walked to school or took a community bus.

Original has redundancy ('took a walk on our on our way') and mixed verb forms. For habitual past/present choose tense to match context: the examiner asked about popularity now, so describing common transport habit can be present/habitual: 'Usually we walk to school or take a community bus.' If referring to childhood past habits, use past simple: 'Usually we walked to school or took a community bus.' Remove repetition and reorder words: subject + verb + object, and use parallel structures for 'walked' and 'took'.
