Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 10.0建議: Answer the question directly instead of repeating it. Begin with a clear yes/no response, then add one or two specific details, such as when you got the bike, how often you used it, or where you rode it. Use the past tense consistently because the question refers to your childhood.
範例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I got it when I was about eight, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends. It was a little old, but I really enjoyed using it.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 55.0建議: Your answer gives a clear opinion and a reason, but improve the grammar and naturalness. Say “Yes, they are” with a comma, use “children” or “kids” instead of “every kids,” and say “riding bikes” rather than “playing bicycles.” Avoid repetition and hesitation, and add a specific present-day example to make your answer more effective.
範例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among children and teenagers. When I was young, I often saw kids riding their bikes in parks and around the neighborhood. Nowadays, many adults also use bicycles to exercise or commute to work.
× Yes they are, because when I was still a kid, I saw every, umm, I saw every kids like my age playing bicycles.
✓ Yes, they are, because when I was still a kid, I saw every kid my age riding bicycles.
Every is a singular quantifier, so it must be followed by the singular noun kid, not the plural noun kids. Also, ride is the natural verb used with bicycles; we say ride bicycles, not play bicycles. The phrase my age is the correct way to describe people who are the same age as you.
