自行车— Part 1 评分报告

建议: Your answer is clear and directly answers the question. To sound more natural, replace “weren't able to buy me one” with “couldn't afford one.” You could also add a specific detail about how you travelled or how you felt about not having a bike. Remember to end the sentence with a full stop.

示例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because my parents couldn’t afford one. Instead, I usually walked to school or went there by bus.

建议: You answer the question directly, but avoid repeating “because” and use “during the pandemic” instead of “in pandemic.” The phrase “there were a lot of people buying bikes” is more grammatically accurate because you are describing a past period. Add a specific result or example to make your answer more developed and coherent.

示例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. During the pandemic, many people bought bikes because they wanted to exercise outdoors while avoiding crowded public transport. As a result, cycling became much more common in cities.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because because in pandemic there's a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because during the pandemic, a lot of people bought bikes and cycled everywhere.

The conjunction 'because' is repeated unnecessarily. Use it only once to introduce the reason for your opinion.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because because in pandemic there's a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because during the pandemic, a lot of people bought bikes and cycled everywhere.

Use 'during' with a period or event such as 'the pandemic'. The preposition 'in' is not natural in this expression.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because because in pandemic there's a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because during the pandemic, a lot of people bought bikes and cycled everywhere.

Use the definite article 'the' before 'pandemic' because you are referring to a specific, well-known pandemic.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because because in pandemic there's a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because during the pandemic, there were a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

Use 'there were' rather than 'there was' or 'there's' with the plural noun phrase 'a lot of people' when describing a past situation. A more natural correction is 'a lot of people bought bikes and cycled everywhere.'

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because because in pandemic there's a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because during the pandemic, there were a lot of people buying bikes and cycling everywhere.

The plural subject 'a lot of people' requires the plural verb 'were', not the singular form 'was' or the contraction 'there's'. A more natural alternative is 'a lot of people bought bikes and cycled everywhere.'
