Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. To improve, answer directly with a clear topic sentence, add one or two specific supporting details using linking words, and keep to no more than five sentences. For example, state whether you had a bike, mention when or how you got it, and describe a brief memory or reason why it mattered to you.

例: Yes, I had a bike when I was about seven. I got it as a birthday present from my parents, and I practiced riding every afternoon in the park. Because of that bike, I learned to be more confident and I often went on short trips with my friends.

提案: Again, you repeated the question instead of giving an answer. Improve by answering directly, using linking words to add a reason or example, and keeping your reply concise. State whether bikes are popular, explain why (for transport, exercise, cost), and provide a specific example or comparison if possible.

例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. Many people use them for short commutes because they are cheap and avoid traffic, and there are also growing bike-share schemes in major towns.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a sentence structure/use error (ID 26): the expected response should be a statement answering the past-tense question. Use past simple 'had' to match 'Did you have...'. A good response is 'Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.' or 'No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.' Make sure to provide a full sentence with a subject and verb rather than repeating the question. Use: Subject + past simple verb (I had / I did not have).

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

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

The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a present tense response error (ID 6): the expected reply should be a statement in present simple to match 'Do you think...'. Use 'I think' + clause: 'I think bikes are popular in my country.' or 'No, I don't think bikes are very popular.' Provide a full sentence with subject and verb rather than echoing the question.
