Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Expand your answer into a short, natural response. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add 1–2 supporting details using linking words (because/so/although). Be specific about reasons or a brief anecdote to make the reply more informative and engaging. Keep it under 5 sentences.

예시: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family couldn't afford one and we lived in a very hilly area. However, I often borrowed my neighbor's bike to go to school, so I still learned how to ride.

제안: Give a clear opinion plus specific supporting reasons and a linking word to connect ideas (for example/although/because). Mention who uses bikes, where they are popular, or compare to other transport to add concreteness. Keep the answer concise (1 topic sentence + 1–2 supporting sentences).

예시: I don't think bikes are very popular in my country because most people prefer cars and public transport for long distances. For example, bikes are mainly used by students in small towns, although some cities are starting to build bike lanes.

× No.

✓ No, I didn't.

The examiner asked a past tense question ('Did you have... when you were a child?') which requires a short negative answer that includes the auxiliary verb did. Responding with only 'No.' is grammatically acceptable in casual speech, but to match the question's tense and be complete, use 'No, I didn't.' This supplies the required auxiliary and subject, ensuring correct past-tense negation. Suggestion: answer short negatives to past questions with 'No, I didn't.' or give a full sentence like 'No, I didn't have a bike.'

× No.

✓ No, I don't think so.

The examiner asked a present-tense general question ('Do you think bikes are popular...'). Replying simply 'No.' is brief but can be unclear. A more complete and tense-appropriate short answer is 'No, I don't think so.' which includes the auxiliary do and matches the present tense of the question. Alternatively, give an expanded reply such as 'No, I don't think bikes are very popular in my country.' This clarifies the opinion and uses correct subject-auxiliary word order.
