Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer directly, then add one brief detail about the bike or how you used it. Correct the verb tense: use “bought” for a past action, and include an article before “really pretty bike” (“a really pretty bike”).

예시: Yes, I did. My dad taught me how to ride when I was young, and then he bought me a really pretty bike. I used to ride it around our neighborhood.

제안: Give a clear reason and a specific example, while avoiding repeated words and fillers such as “public, public” and “umm.” Say “these days” rather than “in this day,” and use “the government provides” or describe a “bike-sharing service.” Be precise about whether the bikes are free or simply available to rent.

예시: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. These days, many cities have public bike-sharing services, which make it easy for people to cycle short distances. They’re especially useful for commuting or getting around busy city centers.

× When I was young my dad taught me how to ride a bike and then buy really pretty bike for me.

✓ When I was young, my dad taught me how to ride a bike and then bought a really pretty bike for me.

The events happened in the past, so buy should be changed to its past-tense form, bought. Use the past tense consistently when describing completed events.

× When I was young my dad taught me how to ride a bike and then buy really pretty bike for me.

✓ When I was young, my dad taught me how to ride a bike and then bought a really pretty bike for me.

Bike is a singular countable noun, so it needs an article. Use a before really pretty bike. Remember that an adjective does not remove the need for an article.

× Yeah, I think so, because in this day there is a public, public borrowing bike service, which is like, umm, government is like that.

✓ Yeah, I think so, because these days there is a public bike-sharing service, which is provided by the government.

In this day is not the natural expression for talking about the present period. Use these days or nowadays. These days does not take the preposition in.

× The government provide people with some free bikes because, yeah, it's really useful.

✓ The government provides people with some free bikes because, yeah, it's really useful.

The government is a singular subject, so the verb in the present simple needs the third-person singular ending -s. Use provides, not provide.
