Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Improve grammar and naturalness: use past tense consistently, correct verb forms, and give a brief reason or short detail to make the answer more informative. Keep it under five sentences and start with a clear topic sentence. Use a linking word if you add an extra detail (e.g., "because" or "so").

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. Instead, I spent most of my free time playing video games and practising tennis, so I didn’t have much interest in cycling.

제안: Make the response more specific and natural: avoid repeating 'popular' and add a brief reason or comparison with an example. Use a linking word such as 'but' or 'although' to connect ideas and keep it concise.

예시: Bikes are fairly popular in my country, but not as common as in some European countries. Although many people cycle for short trips in cities, most prefer cars for longer journeys because public cycling infrastructure is limited.

× I spend my little time on video games and other sports like tennis.

✓ I spent most of my time playing video games and doing other sports like tennis.

The question asks about childhood (past), so verb tense should be past (spent) rather than present (spend). Also, 'my little time' is unidiomatic; use 'most of my time' or 'a lot of my time'. Use 'playing video games' (verb + -ing) and 'doing other sports' to show activities. Suggestion: change present simple to past simple and use idiomatic time expression and gerunds for activities.

× I think bikes are fairly popular, however it is less popular compared to other countries.

✓ I think bikes are fairly popular; however, they are less popular in my country compared to other countries.

The sentence mixes plural subject 'bikes' with singular pronoun 'it' causing subject-verb agreement errors. Use plural pronoun 'they' and plural verb 'are'. Also use 'in my country' to clarify the comparison and 'less popular in my country than in other countries' is more natural. Suggestion: match pronoun and verb number to the subject and use clearer comparative phrasing.
