Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more natural, use past tense and give a brief supporting detail. Start with a clear topic sentence in past tense, then add one or two specific details (when you got it, who gave it, how often you used it). Keep it within 1–3 sentences and avoid repetition.

예시: Yes, I did. I received a red bicycle for my eighth birthday and I rode it to school and around the neighborhood almost every day.

제안: Answer directly with a clear topic sentence, use plural and correct grammar, and provide specific supporting reasons using linking words (for example, because, therefore, however). Avoid repeating the same idea. Limit to about 2–3 sentences.

예시: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and commuting to work. For example, affordable, branded and local models are widely available, so many families prefer bikes for daily travel.

× Yes, I have a bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike.

The examiner asked about the past ('when you were a child'), so the student should use past tense. Use 'had' (simple past) to match the time frame. Suggestion: Pay attention to the time reference in the question and choose past tense verbs for events or possessions in the past.

× Bike is popular in my country because everyone uses bike on the travelling the other places.

✓ Bikes are popular in my country because everyone uses them when traveling to other places.

Multiple issues: plural usage for the subject ('Bikes' not 'Bike') and verb agreement (use 'are'); pronoun/reference ('them' to refer to bikes); incorrect preposition and article ('when traveling to other places' rather than 'on the travelling the other places'). According to the list, address present tense and plural problems. Suggestion: Use plural subject with plural verb and appropriate pronouns, and use 'when' + gerund for occasions of travel.

× So that's why people like to buy the branded bike normal bikes.

✓ So that's why people like to buy branded or regular bikes.

The original mixes adjective forms and nouns incorrectly ('branded bike normal bikes'). Correct form uses adjectives before plural noun and coordinates the alternatives with 'or'. Suggestion: Place adjectives before the noun and use parallel structure when offering alternatives (e.g., 'branded or regular bikes').

× So this bikes is popular in my country.

✓ So these bikes are popular in my country.

Subject and verb do not agree: 'this bikes is' mixes singular demonstrative 'this' with plural noun 'bikes' and uses singular verb 'is'. Use plural demonstrative 'these' and plural verb 'are'. Suggestion: Match demonstratives ('this/these') and verbs to the noun number: singular -> this/that + is; plural -> these/those + are.
