自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: 回答は簡潔で分かりやすくすること、時制と冠詞に注意すること、同じ表現の繰り返しを避けること。具体的には「持っていました」を過去形で一度だけ述べ、その後いつから持っていたかを明確に述べると良いです。例文では正しい時制（過去形）と自然な表現を用いて下さい。

範例: Yes, I did. I had a bike from when I was three years old. It was a small red bicycle with training wheels, and I rode it around my neighborhood every day until I was ten.

建議: 文法（主語と動詞の一致、動詞時制）と語順を正しくし、冗長な言い回しを避けて論理的に述べること。具体的には、まず意見の主題文を述べ、その後に理由や具体例を1〜2つ挙げると良いです。接続詞（because, for example, especially）を使って文をつなぎ、聞き手が理解しやすい構成にして下さい。

範例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because they are cheap and convenient. For example, many older people prefer cycling for short trips, and in cities you can also see lots of commuters using bicycles to avoid traffic.

× Yes, I have. I have. Have had the bike since I was three years old.

✓ Yes, I did. I had a bike since I was three years old.

The student used present tense 'have' and the present perfect 'have had' incorrectly for a past situation. The question asks about having a bike when they were a child (past), so use past tense. Use 'did' as short answer to 'Did you have a bike...' and 'had' to describe possession in the past. Suggestion: Answer short question with 'Yes, I did.' and then use past simple 'I had a bike since I was three years old.' Note: If you want to emphasize duration up to another past point, use 'had been having' rarely; normally 'had' is correct here.

× I think many people I looking at many people riding the bikes, especially the old people, were often seen to ride them.

✓ I think many people ride bikes, especially older people; I often see them riding.

Multiple problems: incorrect verb forms and tense misuse. 'I looking at many people' is ungrammatical and mixes continuous form incorrectly. The examiner asked about general popularity, so use present simple 'ride' for habitual actions. 'Old people' is better as 'older people'. 'Were often seen to ride them' is an awkward passive construction; use active 'I often see them riding' to convey observation. Suggestion: Use present simple for general statements (many people ride) and present simple for habitual observations (I often see them riding).
