Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer directly with a clear statement about whether you had a bike, then add one or two specific supporting details. Keep it natural and avoid repeating the examiner's question. Use linking words like 'and' or 'so' to connect ideas. Aim for 2–4 concise sentences and include concrete details (age, who gave it, how often you rode it, or a memorable experience).

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was about seven years old. It was a small red bicycle that my parents gave me for my birthday, and I rode it every afternoon around the neighborhood. I remember practicing until I could ride without training wheels, which made me feel very proud.

제안: Start with a clear opinion (yes or no) and then justify it with specific reasons or examples rather than saying 'I don't know.' Use linking words such as 'because', 'for example', or 'however' to make your answer coherent. Mention factors like city infrastructure, weather, culture, or commuting habits to make your supporting details concrete and relevant. Keep it within 2–4 sentences.

예시: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, cities have dedicated bike lanes and bike-sharing programs, so students and office workers often cycle to work or school.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ Yes, I did.

The student's reply repeats the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a sentence structure/communication error (type 26). Provide a short past-tense answer to match the question: use 'Yes, I did' or 'No, I didn't' and optionally add details with past simple (e.g. 'Yes, I did. I had a red bike when I was eight.'). Suggestion: Respond directly to yes/no questions with 'Yes, I did' or 'No, I didn't' and use past simple for additional information.

× I think bikes are popular in my country because I don't know.

✓ I think bikes are popular in my country, but I'm not sure.

The original sentence uses 'because I don't know' which is illogical after 'I think' and creates a contradiction. This is a misuse of a clause expressing uncertainty; correct phrasing uses a modal/phrase for uncertainty such as 'I'm not sure' (type 4). The corrected sentence keeps the present-tense opinion 'I think' and adds a clear qualification 'but I'm not sure.' Suggestion: When expressing opinion plus uncertainty, use structures like 'I think..., but I'm not sure' or 'I believe..., however I don't know for certain.'
