Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Your answer is direct and clear, which is good. To improve, add one brief supporting detail or reason using a linking word to make the reply more natural and a little richer. Keep it short (no more than 3–4 sentences) and avoid redundancy.

예시: No, I never had a bike when I was a child because my family lived in a small apartment and there wasn’t much space to store one. However, I often borrowed bikes from neighbors to ride in the nearby park.

제안: Your answer contains good ideas and specific reasons, but it needs clearer structure and more natural linking. Start with a topic sentence, then use linking words (for example, “because” and “also”) and break into shorter sentences to avoid run-on sentences. Replace vague phrasing (‘it is a densely populated’) with a clear subject (e.g., ‘my country is densely populated’).

예시: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. For example, my country is densely populated, so people often choose bikes for commuting because they are easier to park and can navigate narrow streets. Also, using bikes helps reduce traffic congestion compared with cars.

× No, I never had a bike when I was a child.

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

The original uses 'I never had' which is not wrong but in response to 'Did you have' the expected negative past auxiliary form is 'didn't have'. This is a sentence structure/tense usage issue: use the auxiliary did + base verb for past simple negatives. Suggestion: use 'didn't have' for clearer, more natural negative answers to 'Did you...?'.

× They are very popular in my country because it is a densely populated People prefer bikes for commuting and running events since bikes are easier to park and can navigate narrow streets which help reduce traffic congestion compared with cars.

✓ They are very popular in my country because it is densely populated. People prefer bikes for commuting and running errands since bikes are easier to park and can navigate narrow streets, which helps reduce traffic congestion compared with cars.

Multiple sentence structure and agreement issues: 'it is a densely populated People' is a run-on and missing punctuation; 'running events' is likely wrong word choice for everyday travel—'running errands' fits; the relative clause 'which help reduce' refers to 'narrow streets' or 'bikes' and needs subject-verb agreement—use 'which helps' referring to the fact that bikes can navigate narrow streets. Also add a comma before the nonrestrictive 'which' clause. Suggestions: split into two sentences, replace 'running events' with 'running errands', and ensure subject-verb agreement in the relative clause.
