Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Your answer is direct and includes specific details, such as the bike’s color, your age, and who taught you. However, “ladies bike” is less natural than “girls’ bike,” and “use it and drive it” is repetitive. Keep the verb tense consistent by changing “I drive it” to “I rode it,” and use a linking word such as “After that” to connect the details more smoothly.

예시: Yes, I had a yellow girls’ bike when I was in fourth grade. My dad taught me how to ride it, and after that, I often rode it around my neighborhood. It was a fun way to exercise and spend time outdoors.

제안: You answer the question directly and give a relevant reason, but “it” is unclear because bikes are plural; say “cycling” or “bikes became.” The phrase “way back twenty twenties” should be “around 2020” or “in the early 2020s,” and “started to become popular” is less natural than “became more popular.” Add a specific result or example to make the answer more developed and use a linking word such as “because” or “as a result.”

예시: Yes, bikes became much more popular in my country around 2020, during the pandemic. Many people started cycling because gyms were closed and they wanted to exercise outdoors. As a result, more people began using bikes in parks and around their neighborhoods.

× Yes, I had a yellow ladies bike when I was a child. I had it when I was in fourth grade and my dad taught me how to use it and drive it and I drive it around my neighborhood as a form of exercise.

✓ Yes, I had a yellow ladies bike when I was a child. I had it when I was in fourth grade, and my dad taught me how to use it and drive it. I drove it around my neighborhood as a form of exercise.

The speaker is describing past experiences during childhood, so drive should be changed to its simple past form, drove. Separating the final part into a new sentence also makes the sequence of past actions clearer.

× Yes, it started to become popular way back twenty twenties during the pandemic and it was a form of exercise for a lot of people.

✓ Yes, it started to become popular back in the 2020s during the pandemic, and it was a form of exercise for a lot of people.

Use back in before a decade when referring to a period in the past. The natural form of twenty twenties is the 2020s.

× Yes, it started to become popular way back twenty twenties during the pandemic and it was a form of exercise for a lot of people.

✓ Yes, bikes started to become popular back in the 2020s during the pandemic, and they were a form of exercise for a lot of people.

The noun bikes is plural, so it should be replaced by the plural pronoun they, not the singular pronoun it. The verb was must also agree with they and change to were.
