Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 38.0Gợi ý: 先直接回答“有”,再补充一两个相关细节。注意避免重复表达(“bike bicycle”),并使用正确的过去时,例如“couldn’t ride”;回答中途不要停顿或改口,尽量组织成完整、自然的句子。
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. My parents bought me a cute pink bike when I was little. I couldn’t ride it at first, so my dad helped me practise in the park.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 42.0Gợi ý: 先明确回答现在自行车是否流行,再用过去与现在的对比说明变化。注意时态和语法:可说“they weren’t very popular a few years ago”和“in recent years”;“contacted the green environment”表达不自然,可以改为“people have become more environmentally conscious”。
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes have become much more popular in my country. A few years ago, not many people used them, but in recent years, more people have started cycling because they want to protect the environment. Bike-sharing schemes have also made cycling more convenient.
× and I at first I can't.
✓ but at first I couldn't.
这里描述的是童年时的经历,整段叙述使用过去时,因此不能用表示现在或一般能力的“can't”,应改为过去式“couldn't”。此外,原句重复使用“I”,改写时应删去重复部分。
× I don't know how to ride a bike bicycle but.
✓ I didn't know how to ride a bicycle.
句子说的是小时候不会骑自行车,应该使用过去时“didn't know”,而不是现在时“don't know”。“bike bicycle”重复表达同一个意思;“but”放在句末也使句子不完整,因此删去重复词和多余的“but”。
× Many a few years ago
✓ A few years ago
“many”和“a few”不能这样叠加使用。表示“几年前”时,直接说“A few years ago”即可。
× it didn't very popular
✓ it wasn't very popular
“popular”是形容词,描述主语“it”的状态时需要系动词“be”。“didn't”后通常要接动词原形,不能直接接形容词,所以应改为过去式“wasn't”。
× recent years
✓ in recent years
表示“近年来”时,固定搭配是“in recent years”,需要在“recent years”前加介词“in”。
× this concept they tried to ride bicycles
✓ because of this idea, people tried to ride bicycles
原句把“this concept”和“they tried”直接放在一起,缺少清晰的语法连接,结构不完整。可以用“because of this idea”引出原因,并把“people”作为“tried”的主语。
× so it became more and more popular now
✓ so it is becoming more and more popular now
“now”表示目前正在发生或持续的趋势,因此用现在进行时“is becoming”更合适。原句使用过去式“became”,与“now”表达的现在时间不一致。
