Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: 질문에 직접 답하는 주제 문장으로 시작하세요. 과거의 습관을 말할 때는 ‘I used to ride a bike’를 사용하고, ‘write’가 아니라 ‘ride’라고 발음과 철자를 구분해야 합니다. 또한 ‘My dad taught me how to ride a bike’처럼 주어와 동사가 완전한 문장을 만들고, 누구와 탔는지와 어떤 경험이었는지 구체적으로 설명하세요. 같은 단어나 표현을 반복하지 말고, ‘especially’나 ‘because’ 같은 연결어를 사용하면 더 자연스럽습니다.

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it with my sisters, especially on weekends. My dad taught me how to ride, so we often practiced together in a nearby park.

제안: 먼저 ‘I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country’처럼 명확한 의견을 제시하세요. ‘buy’를 사용할 때는 ‘people don’t buy bikes’처럼 주어와 동사를 정확히 연결해야 하며, ‘instead of that’은 이 문맥에서 불필요합니다. 자전거가 인기가 많지 않은 이유를 교통 상황, 날씨 또는 자동차 사용과 연결해 구체적으로 설명하세요. ‘because’와 ‘for example’을 사용하고, 문장을 중간에 멈추거나 같은 표현을 반복하지 않도록 연습하세요.

예시: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country. Many people prefer to drive because public roads can be dangerous for cyclists. For example, commuters usually use cars or public transportation instead of riding bikes to work.

× Yes, yes, I am a bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike.

The question asks about a past situation in childhood, so the past-tense form had is needed instead of the present-tense form am. Also, a person cannot be a bike; had correctly expresses possession.

× I usually.

✓ I usually rode it with my sisters and my dad.

Usually is an adverb, not a complete sentence. A complete sentence needs a subject and a verb. The correction adds the subject I and the past-tense verb rode.

× I used to write write.

✓ I used to ride it.

The correct verb for using a bike is ride, not write. After used to, use the base form of the verb: used to ride. Because the sentence refers to a past habit, used to is appropriate.

× Combined with my sisters and my dad, my.

✓ I rode it with my sisters and my dad.

Combined with is not the correct verb expression for this meaning. The past-tense verb rode clearly describes the past activity, and with correctly introduces the people who accompanied the speaker.

× Teach me how to ride bike.

✓ My dad taught me how to ride a bike.

The past-tense form taught is required because the teaching happened during the speaker's childhood. The phrase a bike also needs the indefinite article a because bike is a singular countable noun.

× I think not because a lot of people in my country didn't.

✓ I don't think so because a lot of people in my country don't buy bikes.

The question asks about the current popularity of bikes, so the present tense don't buy is more appropriate than the past form didn't. After do or don't, use the base form buy, not buys. The phrase I don't think so is the natural structure for giving a negative answer.

× Buys instead of that people.

✓ People don't buy bikes.

People is a plural subject, so it takes do not or don't, not does not or doesn't. After don't, the verb must remain in its base form, buy, rather than the third-person singular form buys.

× Instead of that people. Well, usually.

✓ Instead, people usually do not buy bikes.

The original words do not form a complete or logical sentence. Instead should be followed by a comma when it introduces a contrasting idea, and people usually do not buy bikes provides a complete clause with a subject, verb, and object.
