Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer directly, then explain the situation briefly. Correct the tense and subject–verb agreement: say “when I was a child,” “my family couldn’t afford,” and “I couldn’t afford one.” Avoid repeating the same idea, and use “I wish I had had one” to describe a past regret.

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because my family couldn’t afford one. I used to wish I had had one, especially when I saw other children riding theirs.

제안: Your answer is relevant, but reduce repetition and remove fillers such as “uh” and “I think.” Use a more natural phrase such as “young people” instead of “youngsters,” and add one specific detail about how or where people use bikes. Be precise about whether you mean bicycles or motorbikes.

예시: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among young people. Many use bicycles to get to school or run errands because they’re affordable and convenient. In busy areas, they can also be easier to park than cars.

× When I were a child

✓ When I was a child

The subject I takes was, not were, in the past tense. Use I was, while were is used with you, we, and they.

× My family were so poor that I cannot afford a bike.

✓ My family were so poor that I could not afford a bike.

The sentence describes a situation in the past, so cannot should be changed to could not. Were is acceptable for family in varieties of English that treat collective nouns as plural.

× I love to have one.

✓ I would have loved to have one.

The speaker is describing a desire they had as a child, so the verb should reflect that past time. Would have loved expresses a past wish that was not fulfilled.

× I I didn't.

✓ But I didn't get one.

The subject I is repeated, and didn't is left without a clear action. Remove the repeated subject and add get one to make the sentence clear and complete.
