Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Use the past tense consistently because the question asks about your childhood: say “I had” and “I rode,” not “I do have” or “I have.” Avoid repeating “while” and replace unnatural phrases such as “into forest” and “play in the nature” with “through the forest” and “enjoy nature.” You could also make the answer more effective by adding a specific detail about where you rode or how you felt. Try to answer in three or four clear sentences without fillers such as “uh.”

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I often rode it in my free time, especially with my friends. We usually cycled through the forest near my hometown and enjoyed being outdoors together.

제안: Give a direct answer and then explain it with a clear reason. Change “a regular sized city” to “a medium-sized city,” and use the plural pronoun “them” when referring to shared bikes. The phrase “use it very conveniently” is unnatural; say “use them very conveniently” or, more naturally, “they are very convenient to use.” You could improve the answer further by mentioning why people use bikes, such as avoiding traffic or reducing travel costs.

예시: Yes, bikes are very popular in China, especially in my hometown, which is a medium-sized city. There are many shared bikes on the streets, and people often use them for short journeys because they are convenient and inexpensive. They are also a good way to avoid traffic.
