Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer the question directly with “Yes, I did.” Then use the past simple or past continuous correctly: say “I rode a bike when I was a child” or “I was riding a bike when I was a child.” Add one specific detail, such as where you rode it or who taught you. Avoid incorrect forms such as “I was” and “I riding.”

예시: Yes, I did. I learned to ride a bike when I was about six years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends.

제안: Your answer is grammatically correct but too brief to develop your idea. After stating your opinion, explain why bikes are popular and add a specific example or comparison. Use a linking word such as “because” or “especially” to make your response more coherent and informative.

예시: Yes, I do. Bikes are quite popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys. They are especially common among students and people who want to avoid traffic.

× Yes, I was.

✓ Yes, I did.

The question uses the past-tense auxiliary did: Did you have a bike...? Therefore, the short answer should use did, not was. Use Yes, I did to answer questions beginning with Did you...?.

× I riding a bike when I child.

✓ I was riding a bike when I was a child.

The past continuous requires was or were plus the present participle, so riding must be preceded by was. The phrase I child also needs the past-tense verb was: I was a child. A useful pattern is I was riding... when I was....

× I riding a bike when I child.

✓ I was riding a bike when I was a child.

The singular countable noun child requires the indefinite article a. Say a child, not child by itself.
