Bike— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Answer directly with a clear topic sentence and add one or two specific supporting details. Use past tense and avoid repeating the examiner’s question. Keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences) and include a linking word if you add details (e.g., “and,” “but,” “because,” “so”).

例: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle with training wheels when I was about seven, and I rode it to my friend’s house every weekend. Because it was lightweight, I learned to ride without the training wheels within a few months.

提案: Begin with a full sentence that directly answers the question, use correct grammar (subject–verb agreement), and add a specific reason or example. Use linking words (e.g., “because,” “for example,” “so”) and one or two supporting details for clarity. Keep the response natural and limited to 2–4 sentences.

例: Yes, I think bicycles are very popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and commuting. For example, students and market vendors often ride bikes to save money and avoid traffic, so you see them everywhere in cities and towns.

× Yes, bike are popular in my country because everyone have it.

✓ Yes, bikes are popular in my country because everyone has one.

The sentence contains two linked number agreement errors. First, 'bike are' mixes a singular noun with a plural verb; use plural noun 'bikes' with plural verb 'are' (Grammar Problem Type ID 1). Second, 'everyone have' is incorrect because 'everyone' is singular and requires a singular verb 'has' (Grammar Problem Type ID 27/2); change 'have' to 'has'. Also, 'it' is inappropriate for people possession; use 'one' to refer to 'a bike' in this general statement. Suggestion: ensure nouns and verbs match in number, remember indefinite pronouns like 'everyone' take singular verbs, and use 'one' to refer to a single item generally. Note: This correction follows only the listed grammar problem types (singular/plural and subject-verb agreement) and preserves the present-tense general-statement meaning.
