Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answer directly, then add a few relevant details. Correct “I was having a bite” to “I had a bike” and use the past simple for a childhood possession. Say “a two-wheeled bike with large tires” and avoid repeating “bike/bicycle.”

예시: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My parents gave it to me for my seventh birthday because I loved riding. It was black and had large tires.

제안: Give a clear reason or example to support your opinion. Replace the unnatural phrase “are having the bikes” with “ride bikes” or “own bikes,” and remove fillers such as “uh.” Instead of saying there are “multiple varieties,” name a type or explain how people use bikes.

✓ Yes, definitely. Bikes are quite popular in my country because all individuals, especially men and young boys, have bikes, and there are multiple varieties in my country.
