Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: 回答切题,但要注意过去时:讲童年经历时用“had”和“was”,不要用“have”和“is”。避免重复“it has”,并把细节表达得更自然;如果你指的是儿童用的四轮自行车,可以说明它有辅助轮。
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a yellow bike when I was a child, and it had two small training wheels to help me keep my balance.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 35.0Gợi ý: 先直接回答自行车是否受欢迎,并注意主谓一致:可以说“bikes are popular”。“cannot avail build the cars”表达不自然;如果想说买不起汽车,可用“cannot afford to buy a car”。避免把原因说得过于绝对,并补充一个具体原因或例子。
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. Many people ride them because they are cheaper than cars and convenient for short trips, especially in busy cities.
× I have a bike when I was a child.
✓ I had a bike when I was a child.
句子描述的是“小时候”的情况,时间在过去,因此动词 have 应使用过去式 had。
× It is yellow and it has it has four wheels.
✓ It was yellow, and it had four wheels.
这里继续描述小时候那辆自行车的颜色和特征,应使用过去时:is 改为 was,has 改为 had。重复的“it has”属于口语重复,整理句子时可删去。
× I think it's very popular, because most of them cannot avail build the cars, so they just ride a bike.
✓ I think bikes are very popular because most people cannot afford to buy cars, so they just ride bikes.
bikes 是复数,不能用单数代词 it 指代,应使用 they,或直接重复 bikes。原句中的 them 容易被理解为指代 bikes,但这里表达的应是“多数人”,所以改为 most people。
× I think it's very popular, because most of them cannot avail build the cars, so they just ride a bike.
✓ I think bikes are very popular because most people cannot afford to buy cars, so they just ride bikes.
情态动词 cannot 后面不能直接接“avail build”这样的动词组合;表达“买不起”应使用 afford to do,即 afford to buy。cars 泛指汽车时通常不需要加定冠词 the。
