自行车— Part 1 评分报告

建议: 回答が短く直接的ですが、詳細が欠けているため減点されます。次回はトピック文を述べた後に、理由や関連するエピソード、比較など具体的な補足情報を1〜2文加えてください。例えば、なぜ持っていなかったのか、誰と遊んでいたか、後で自転車に乗るようになったか等を述べると自然で説得力が増します。また、接続語（because, so, however）を使って流れを作りましょう。

示例: I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family couldn't afford one. However, I often borrowed my neighbor's bike to ride to the park, and I remember learning to balance by practicing on smooth pavement every weekend.

建议: 質問を聞き返すのは悪くないですが、この場合は確認した後にすぐに答えを返すべきです。聞き返すときは簡潔にして、その後に自分の考えを述べ、具体例や比較を加えてください。また、“bike”の意味を確認するなら、“Do you mean bicycles used for commuting?”のように具体的に聞くと自然です。回答では頻度、利用目的、または地域差を示すと良いです。

示例: Do you mean bicycles used for commuting? If so, yes — bicycles are quite popular in cities because many people use them to avoid traffic and save money. In rural areas they are less common, but they are still used for short trips to the market.

× Excuse me, what do you mean bike?

✓ Excuse me, what do you mean by 'bike'?

The student omitted the preposition 'by' which is necessary in the phrase 'mean by' when asking for clarification about a word or concept. Use 'mean by' to indicate the thing being clarified; also adding quotes around the word (or phrasing it) helps indicate the term in question. Suggestion: ask 'What do you mean by "bike"?' or 'What do you mean by that?' to sound natural.
