Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Your answer is generally clear and relevant, but contains some grammatical errors and awkward phrases. To improve: (1) Begin with a concise topic sentence directly answering the question. (2) Correct grammar (e.g., use 'a few' not 'few', 'commute' not 'commit', 'saved' or 'save them time' with consistent tense). (3) Use one or two linking words for coherence (for example, 'for example' or 'as a result'). (4) Keep the response within 2–4 sentences and avoid redundancy. Specific fix: say you did not have a bike, then briefly describe what you observed and why bikes were useful.

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. A few of my neighbors did, and I often saw their children use bikes to commute to school and run small errands; as a result, they saved time in traffic and gained more independence.

제안: Your answer addresses the question and gives reasons, but the language needs polishing and a linking word to connect ideas. To improve: (1) Use clearer vocabulary—say 'increase' or 'rising fuel prices' instead of 'increment'. (2) Fix phrasing: 'Most people choose this option because it is easy to maintain and cheaper than using petrol.' (3) Add a short example or consequence to make the answer more specific. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

예시: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country, mainly because of rising fuel prices. Most people choose bikes as they are easy to maintain and much cheaper than driving; for example, commuters often switch to scooters or bicycles to save on daily petrol costs.

× I didn't have a bike while growing up, but few of my neighbors actually bought bikes for their children.

✓ I didn't have a bike while growing up, but a few of my neighbors actually bought bikes for their children.

The error is the missing indefinite article 'a' before 'few'. 'Few' (without article) implies almost none; 'a few' means some. Use 'a few' to indicate that some neighbors bought bikes. This fits past tense context, no tense change needed.

× I often saw their children use bikes to commit to school and run small errands, which was convenient and save them time in traffic while also giving them a bit more independence.

✓ I often saw their children use bikes to get to school and run small errands, which was convenient and saved them time in traffic while also giving them a bit more independence.

Two issues: 'commit to school' is incorrect collocation; correct phrase is 'get to school' or 'ride to school'. Also 'save' must agree in past tense with 'was' and 'saw', so use 'saved'. Use consistent past tense when describing past habitual observations.

× Bikes are very popular in my country, especially now that there is increment in the price of fuel.

✓ Bikes are very popular in my country, especially now that there has been an increase in the price of fuel.

The phrase 'there is increment in the price' is not idiomatic. Use 'there has been an increase in the price' to express a recent change affecting the present; present perfect ('has been') fits 'now that'. Also include the article 'an' before 'increase'.

× Most people go for this option that it is very easy to maintain and less expensive when it comes to fuel purchase.

✓ Most people choose this option because it is very easy to maintain and less expensive in terms of fuel costs.

The original sentence has poor structure: 'go for this option that it is...' is ungrammatical. Replace with 'choose this option because' to connect reason and result. Also 'when it comes to fuel purchase' is awkward; use 'in terms of fuel costs' or 'for fuel'.
