自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Be careful with grammar (possessive and verb forms) and make your reply more concise and structured: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details with linking words. Avoid redundancy and filler words. For example, change "borrowed to my friend's bike" to "borrowed my friend's bike," and use past-simple consistently ("I had an accident").

範例: No, I didn't have my own bike as a child, but I often borrowed my friend's bike. However, I once had an accident because I wasn't confident riding, so I stopped borrowing bikes for a while to recover and regain my confidence.

建議: Make the answer more fluent and specific: start with a clear opinion, then give one or two concrete reasons or examples using linking words (e.g., "because," "for example"). Avoid fillers like "umm" and redundant phrases like "I can say so." Mentioning locations or cultural reasons would strengthen the response.

範例: Yes, I think bikes are very popular in the Philippines because many children and even adults use them for short trips. For example, I often see kids riding to school and vendors using bicycles in markets, which shows how common they are.

× When I was a kid I didn't have a bike, but I often borrowed to my friend's bike.

✓ When I was a kid I didn't have a bike, but I often borrowed my friend's bike.

The verb 'borrow' should be used without the preposition 'to' when indicating the object borrowed. The correct structure is 'borrow something (from someone)' or 'borrow someone's something.' Here the student intended 'borrow my friend's bike.' Suggestion: say 'borrow my friend's bike' or 'borrow a bike from my friend.'

× Once I got an accident because I didn't know how to ride a bike properly, so I just stopped borrowing them for a while.

✓ Once I had an accident because I didn't know how to ride a bike properly, so I stopped borrowing bikes for a while.

The phrase 'got an accident' is non-idiomatic in English; the correct expression is 'had an accident.' Also 'them' is unclear; use 'bikes' to match plural reference. 'Just' is unnecessary and can be omitted or kept for emphasis. Suggestion: use 'had an accident' and use explicit noun 'bikes.'

× Yes, I can say so because I can see a lot of kids riding a bike wherever I go.

✓ Yes, I can say that because I can see a lot of kids riding bikes wherever I go.

'Say so' is less natural than 'say that' in this context. 'Riding a bike' implies singular and sounds odd with 'a lot of kids'; use plural 'riding bikes.' Also 'wherever I go' is fine. Suggestion: use 'say that' and plural 'bikes.'

× So basically, umm, bikes are popular in my country which is the Philippines.

✓ So basically, bikes are popular in my country, which is the Philippines.

The filler 'umm' should be omitted in formal responses. A comma is needed before the nonrestrictive clause 'which is the Philippines.' Suggestion: remove fillers and place a comma before 'which' when adding extra information about 'my country.'
