Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Make the answer direct and natural, use a clear topic sentence and add a brief supporting detail. Correct grammar (use past simple), avoid awkward negation. Keep it within 1–3 sentences and give a short reason or memory.

예시: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child. My family couldn't afford one, so I usually walked to school or took the bus, and I only learned to ride when I was a teenager.

제안: Give a clear direct opinion first, then support it with 1–2 specific reasons using linking words (for example, because/so). Avoid filler words and contradictions. Keep sentences concise and coherent.

예시: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise, and there are growing bike lanes in major cities which encourage cycling.

× I always did not have a bike when I started.

✓ I did not have a bike when I was a child.

The sentence uses 'always' with a negation 'did not', which is unnatural for the intended meaning. For past habitual states, use simple past negative 'I did not have' or 'I never had'. Also 'when I started' is vague; the examiner asked 'when you were a child', so replace with 'when I was a child' to match context. Suggestion: use 'I never had a bike when I was a child' or 'I did not have a bike when I was a child.'

× Actually, I think it's yes, it's, uh, it's, yeah, it's not.

✓ Actually, I don't think so.

The original reply is ungrammatical and unclear due to repeated fillers and contradictory fragments ('it's yes' and 'it's not'). The speaker likely intends to express disagreement or uncertainty about bikes being popular. A clear, concise response is 'Actually, I don't think so.' This uses the correct present tense negative with pronoun 'I' and verb 'do not think' to express opinion. If the speaker means they think bikes are popular, use 'Actually, I think they are.'
