自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: Use the past tense because the question refers to your childhood: say “Yes, I did” or “Yes, I had one.” Add one specific detail, such as when you used it or where you rode it. Avoid using “have,” which refers to the present.

範例: Yes, I did. I had a blue bike when I was about eight years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood after school.

建議: Use the plural pronoun “they” to refer to “bikes,” and avoid repeating the same sentence structure. Give a clear reason and a specific example, using a linking word such as “because” or “especially.” Say “going to the market” rather than “going to market something like that.”

範例: Yes, they are quite popular in my country because they are cheap and convenient for short journeys. Many people use them to go to the market, commute to work, or exercise.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

× Yes, it is, it is used for transportation, going to market something like that.

✓ Yes, they are. They are used for transportation, such as going to the market.
