Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 42.0建議: 先直接回答问题,并注意时态一致:谈童年经历时用过去时“had”。“pie”是“馅饼”,这里应为“bike”。后半句可改为“my parents bought it for me”,避免同时使用“that was”和“bought”。
範例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My parents bought it for me as a birthday present, and I used to ride it around our neighborhood.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 38.0建議: 回答观点后补充一个具体原因即可。避免重复使用“Well”;“most people”前不加“of”,“choose”前不需要“are”,并保持并列结构一致,例如“drive, take the subway, or ride bikes”。注意“by subway”应改为“take the subway”。
範例: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country. Most people prefer driving or taking the subway because these options are more convenient for longer journeys.
× Yes, I have a pie when I was a child, and that was my parents bought it for me as a birthday gift.
✓ Yes, I had a pie when I was a child, and my parents bought it for me as a birthday gift.
句子描述的是“小时候”的过去经历,因此应使用一般过去时。这里的 have 应改为 had。
× Yes, I have a pie when I was a child, and that was my parents bought it for me as a birthday gift.
✓ Yes, I had a pie when I was a child, and my parents bought it for me as a birthday gift.
“that was my parents bought it”把 that was 和 my parents bought it 两种结构错误地拼在一起。删除 that was,并直接用 and 连接两个分句,句子结构会更完整、自然。
× Well, most of people are choose to like driving or by subway, not ride bikes.
✓ Well, I think bikes are not popular in my country. Most people choose to drive or take the subway rather than ride bikes.
most 后直接接可数名词复数时,应说 most people;如果使用 most of,则需要限定词,例如 most of the people。此处应改为 most people。
× Well, most of people are choose to like driving or by subway, not ride bikes.
✓ Well, I think bikes are not popular in my country. Most people choose to drive or take the subway rather than ride bikes.
一般现在时的主动句中,choose 前不需要 be 动词,因此 are choose 应改为 choose。另外,并列表达应保持结构平行:choose to drive、take the subway 和 ride bikes。可以用 rather than 连接对比的出行方式,使句子更清楚自然。
