Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Improve grammar, tense and sentence structure. Start with a direct topic sentence in the past tense, then briefly add one specific supporting detail (reason or memory) using a linking word. Keep it natural and concise (no more than 3–4 short sentences).

예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. Instead, I usually borrowed my neighbour’s bike because my family couldn’t afford one. As a result, I learned to ride only when I was about ten.

제안: Make the response more specific and add a reason or example with a linking word to sound natural and informative. Use present simple for general statements and include one concrete detail (who uses them, where, or why). Keep it concise and avoid repeating words.

예시: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and running errands. For example, in urban areas you can see cyclists on dedicated lanes during rush hour.

× No, I have no bike when I was child.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.

The original mixes present tense 'have' with past time marker 'when I was a child', causing a tense mismatch. Use past simple 'didn't have' for a negative past statement and include the article 'a' before 'child' to be grammatical. Suggestion: use past simple for actions or states that occurred in the past and include necessary articles: 'I didn't have a bike when I was a child.'

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in our country.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.

The student's sentence is grammatical but the pronoun 'our' implies the examiner is included; more natural is 'my country' when speaking of one's own country. This is a pronoun choice issue (Incorrect use of pronouns). Suggestion: use 'my country' to refer to the speaker's country unless explicitly including the listener: 'I think bikes are popular in my country.'
