Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 78.0建議: Your answer is relevant and concise, but you can improve by adding a clear topic sentence and one or two specific supporting details using a linking word. Also vary vocabulary (e.g., use "ride" instead of repeating "bike") and avoid tense or small phrasing issues. Keep within 3–4 sentences.
範例: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bicycle that I rode every day after school. Because my school was close to home, I often rode with my friends to the park and we practiced tricks on the path, which helped me become more confident on two wheels.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 62.0建議: The idea is understandable but the sentence is unclear and has grammar mistakes and hesitation. Start with a clear topic sentence, use linking words (however, although, nowadays) to compare past and present, and give a specific reason or example to support your view. Use correct grammar: "when cars became popular" or "as cars became more common."
範例: Bikes used to be very popular here, but they are less common now. As cars became more affordable and public transport improved, many people switched to driving; however, cycling is still common in some cities for short trips and leisure on weekends.
× Yes, I did. When I was young I used to bike every day after school.
✓ Yes, I did. When I was young, I used to ride a bike every day after school.
The sentence uses 'bike' as a verb informally; 'ride a bike' is more natural and grammatically standard when describing using a bicycle. Also add a comma after the introductory time clause 'When I was young' for clarity.
× In the past, uh, when cars on the popular, the bikes were so popular, but I think it's less popular than before.
✓ In the past, when cars were not so popular, bikes were very popular, but I think they are less popular now.
The original contains an incorrect phrase 'when cars on the popular' which misuses prepositions/structure. Use 'cars were not so popular' to express the intended contrast. Replace 'the bikes were so popular' with 'bikes were very popular' (no definite article needed). Change 'it's less popular than before' to 'they are less popular now' to match plural subject 'bikes' and present-tense comparison. This corrects subject-verb agreement and preposition/structure errors.
