Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Answering directly is good, but use the past tense consistently when describing your childhood bike. Say “It was blue” or “It had” rather than “It’s having.” Also, “features like racing and without gear” is unclear; describe the bike more precisely, such as whether it was designed for racing or had no gears.

예시: Yes, I did. I had a blue bike with two wheels, and it was a simple model without gears. I used to ride it around my neighborhood.

제안: Your answer gives a clear opinion and a reason. Since you are talking about a general situation, use the present tense: “people use,” not “everyone used.” Avoid saying “everyone,” which may be too broad, and make “short distance” plural or use “short journeys.” Add a specific example to develop your answer.

예시: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in smaller towns. Many people use them for short journeys because they are convenient and inexpensive.

× Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It's having blue color, two wheels, and it's having many features like racing and without gear.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was blue, had two wheels, and had many features, including a racing design, but no gears.

The question asks about a bike you had in childhood, so use past-tense forms to describe it. Replace it's having with it was or it had. It was blue is the natural way to describe the bike's color.

× Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It's having blue color, two wheels, and it's having many features like racing and without gear.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was blue, had two wheels, and had many features, including a racing design, but no gears.

Gear is a countable noun, and the intended meaning refers to the bike having no gears. Use the plural form gears after no. For countable nouns, use a plural form when referring to an unspecified number or to the general feature.

× Of course, bikes are popular in my country because everyone used bikes for short distance.

✓ Of course, bikes are popular in my country because everyone uses bikes for short distances.

The sentence describes a general habit, so use the present tense uses rather than the past tense used. Use short distances to refer generally to trips over short distances.

× Of course, bikes are popular in my country because everyone used bikes for short distance.

✓ Of course, bikes are popular in my country because everyone uses bikes for short distances.

Short distance refers to trips in general, so use the plural form short distances. The singular countable noun distance would need a determiner, such as a short distance.
