Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid filler phrases like "you know" and correct verb forms ("didn't use to" or "didn't ride").

예시: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child. However, I didn't use to ride it much at first because learning to balance felt difficult. After a few months of practice with my older brother, I became more confident and started riding to the park regularly.

제안: Answer directly and add a specific reason with a linking word. Remove hesitations and repetitions. Give one concrete example or brief comparison to support your view.

예시: Compared with many European countries, bicycles are not very popular in my country. This is mainly because public transport like buses and subways is cheap and convenient, so most people prefer those for commuting to work and school.

× When I was young, I had a bike, though I didn't used to ride a bike at that time because it was tough for me, you know, riding a bike was like a challenge at that young age, so.

✓ When I was young, I had a bike, though I didn't use to ride it at that time because it was tough for me; riding a bike was like a challenge at that age.

This sentence contains an incorrect past-tense verb form after the auxiliary did. After did (the past auxiliary), the base form of the verb should be used, so 'didn't used to' should be 'didn't use to'. Also, pronoun reference and redundancy were cleaned: use 'it' instead of repeating 'a bike', remove filler words, and simplify 'that young age' to 'that age' for clarity. Suggestion: After 'did' or 'didn't', always use the base verb form (use, not used). Use a pronoun to avoid repetition and simplify clauses for clearer speech.

× To to compare with other countries, I think it is not that popular in our country because we use uh, other transportation like bus or subway more.

✓ Compared with other countries, I think bikes are not that popular in our country because we use other forms of transportation like buses or the subway more.

This sentence has repetition ('To to') and awkward structure. Begin with 'Compared with other countries' for a natural comparison. Use plural 'buses' for countable vehicles (singular/plural agreement) and include 'the' before 'subway' when referring to the system in general. Also change 'it is not that popular' to 'bikes are not that popular' to maintain subject clarity and subject-verb agreement. Suggestions: avoid repeated words, ensure the subject is clear, match nouns and verbs in number, and use articles appropriately ('the subway').
