自行车— Part 1 評分報告

建議: 回答直接，但“that's from my father”表达不自然，而且“father”与“she”指代不一致。可以说“My father gave me a bike”，并用“he”指代父亲。还可以补充一个具体细节，例如你几岁学会骑车，或当时常在哪里骑车。

範例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My father gave it to me and taught me how to ride it. I used to ride it around our neighborhood.

建議: 你清楚地表达了大城市和小城市之间的差异，也给出了原因，但有几处表达不自然：“depends on cities”可改为“depends on the type of city”，“buy metro”应为“take the metro”。注意“大城市里人们通常不骑车”可用一般现在时，并用“whereas”连接大小城市的对比。可以再补充一个具体原因，例如大城市交通拥堵或公共交通更发达。

範例: I think it depends on the type of city. In big cities, people tend to take the metro because public transport is convenient and the roads are often crowded. In smaller cities, bikes are more popular because they’re a convenient and environmentally friendly way to get around.

× Yes, that's from my father, and she taught me how to ride a bike too.

✓ Yes, it was from my father, and he taught me how to ride a bike too.

这里的 “she” 指的是父亲，性别不一致，应改为 “he”。此外，“that's”中的 “that” 没有清楚地指代自行车；用 “it” 指代自行车更恰当。

× Yes, that's from my father, and she taught me how to ride a bike too.

✓ Yes, it was from my father, and she taught me how to ride a bike too.

问题问的是小时候是否有自行车，回答描述的是过去的情况，因此应将现在时 “is” 改为过去时 “was”。

× Like big cities, people are not usually riding bikes.

✓ In big cities, people don't usually ride bikes.

这里描述的是城市里通常的情况，应使用一般现在时表达习惯。一般现在时的否定形式是 “don't + 动词原形”，所以应说 “don't usually ride”，而不是 “are not usually riding”。

× And in small cities they are more popular for people to ride a bike because it's convenient and green.

✓ In small cities, bikes are more popular because riding them is convenient and environmentally friendly.

“they are more popular for people to ride a bike”结构不自然，且 “they” 指自行车，而后面却接单数 “a bike”。可以直接说 “bikes are more popular”，并用 “riding them” 清楚地表达骑自行车方便、环保。
