Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Your answer is direct and brief, which is good, but it is too short and lacks supporting detail. To improve, give a short topic sentence then add one or two specific supporting details (reason, brief example or feeling). Use a linking word if you add more than one idea. Keep under five sentences and avoid hesitation sounds.

예시: No, I didn't. I grew up in a small city where most families used motorbikes, so my parents preferred I learn to ride those instead. Consequently, I learned to balance on a motorbike rather than a bicycle, though I later practiced cycling at summer camps.

제안: Your answer addresses the question but has grammatical errors, hesitation filler and some unclear phrasing. Improve by using a clear topic sentence about popularity, then add specific supporting reasons or examples. Remove fillers (uh) and fix grammar (e.g. 'it is' -> 'they are'; 'eager how to drive' -> 'eager to learn to ride'). Use linking words (for example, therefore) to connect ideas and keep sentences concise (max 5).

예시: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country because they are affordable and practical for short trips. For example, when I was a child I was eager to learn to ride, so when a friend lent me his bike I gladly accepted and practiced every afternoon to improve.

× Yes, it is popular in my country.

✓ Yes, they are popular in my country.

Subject 'bikes' is plural, so the verb should be 'are' not 'is'. Use plural pronoun 'they' to agree with 'bikes'. Suggestion: Identify the subject (bikes) and ensure verb and pronoun agree in number.

× In fact, when I was still, uh, when I was a child, I was very eager how to drive a bicycle.

✓ In fact, when I was a child, I was very eager to learn how to ride a bicycle.

The original sentence has redundant phrasing ('when I was still, uh, when I was a child') and incorrect verb pattern 'eager how to drive'. 'Eager' should be followed by an infinitive ('to learn'). 'Drive a bicycle' is unnatural; use 'ride a bicycle'. Suggestion: Remove fillers and redundant clauses, use 'eager to learn how to' + verb and choose the correct verb for bicycles ('ride').

× So when my friend offered me his bike without a second thought, I grabbed the opportunity to.

✓ So when my friend offered me his bike without a second thought, I grabbed the opportunity.

The sentence ends with an unnecessary 'to' that makes the clause incomplete. Remove the final 'to' to complete the phrasal expression 'grabbed the opportunity'. Suggestion: Avoid leaving dangling 'to' at the end; ensure verbs and particles form complete expressions.
