自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Be careful with tense and article use, make the answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence in past tense, then add a brief specific detail using a linking word. Avoid redundant words and correct grammar (e.g. 'did' with past tense, 'practiced' not 'practice').

範例: Yes, I did. My father bought me a small red bike when I was about seven, and I practised riding it every day until I became confident. As a result, I could ride without training wheels within a few weeks.

建議: Make the statement more concise and correct awkward phrases. Begin with a direct topic sentence, then give two specific reasons using linking words (for example, 'because' or 'for instance'). Use precise vocabulary (e.g. 'many people cycle' not 'large amount'). Avoid filler words like 'yeah'.

範例: Yes, I think bicycles are very popular in China because many people use them to commute and run errands. For example, in cities you can see commuters on e-bikes during rush hour, and some people also cycle for exercise on weekends.

× Yes, I do have a bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike.

The examiner asked about the past ('when you were a child'), so the response should use past tense. Using 'do have' is present tense and mismatches the time frame. Use 'had' to indicate possession in the past. Suggestion: Match the verb tense to the time expression. Replace present simple with past simple when referring to past time.

× When I was a child, my father bought a bike for me and I practice every day.

✓ When I was a child, my father bought a bike for me and I practiced every day.

The sentence begins with a past-time clause ('When I was a child') and uses 'bought' correctly, but 'practice' is present tense. Both verbs referring to past habitual actions should be in past simple: 'practiced'. Suggestion: Use past simple for habitual actions in the past (practiced). Also note American spelling 'practiced' vs British 'practised' depending on variety.

× China is a country which has a large amount larger number of people who are cycling.

✓ China is a country with a large number of people who cycle.

The original mixes 'a large amount' (used for uncountable nouns) and 'larger number' awkwardly. 'People' is countable, so use 'a large number of people'. Also use 'who cycle' (simple present) rather than 'who are cycling' for general facts. Suggestion: For countable nouns use 'a large number of'. For habitual/general facts use simple present ('who cycle').

× We use bicycles to commute, to do exercise and even to go shopping.

✓ We use bicycles to commute, to exercise and even to go shopping.

Grammatically this sentence is acceptable, but 'to do exercise' is less natural than 'to exercise'. Use parallel verb forms for clarity and naturalness. Suggestion: Keep parallel infinitive forms ('to commute, to exercise, and to go shopping').

× Yeah, so I think it's very popular.

✓ Yes, so I think they are very popular.

'Yeah' is informal; 'I think it's very popular' is ambiguous because 'it' could refer to China or bikes. Since the question asks about 'bikes', use plural 'they are' to refer to bicycles. Use 'Yes' for a more formal register. Suggestion: Match pronoun number to the noun ('bikes' -> 'they') and use appropriate register for exam settings.
