Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be direct and correct grammar, avoid repetition, and give one or two brief supporting details. Start with a clear topic sentence (past tense), correct verb forms, and a linking phrase if adding detail.

예시: No, I didn’t have my own bike when I was a child, but I often borrowed my brother’s bike. For example, I used to ride it to the park every afternoon, which helped me become confident on two wheels.

제안: Use correct noun forms and smoother linking words, reduce hesitations, and give a specific reason or example. Begin with a clear opinion sentence, then add one or two concise supporting reasons using linking words like "because" or "for example."

예시: Yes, I think bikes are very popular in my country because many people prefer them for short trips and for exercise. For instance, commuters often cycle to work to avoid traffic and to stay healthy.

× Well I don't have a bike when I when I was a child, but my brother did so I always borrowed borrowed his bike and ride it.

✓ Well, I didn't have a bike when I was a child, but my brother did, so I always borrowed his bike and rode it.

Errors: wrong tense and sentence structure. 'don't have' is present tense but context is past — use past tense 'didn't have'. Repeated word 'borrowed borrowed' remove duplicate. After 'borrowed' the action happened in the past, so the verb 'ride' should be past 'rode'. Also add commas for clarity. Suggestion: identify the time reference (when I was a child) then use past tense consistently: subject + past verb; avoid word repetition and separate clauses with commas.

× Well, I think bike is uh, very popular in my country because people are love, uh, riding a bike rather than scooters or driving a car.

✓ Well, I think bikes are very popular in my country because people love riding bikes rather than riding scooters or driving cars.

Errors: 'bike is' uses singular while meaning general popularity — use plural 'bikes are'. 'people are love' is incorrect verb form — use 'people love'. Also keep noun forms consistent: 'riding a bike' vs 'scooters' mismatched; better use plural 'riding bikes' and parallel structure 'riding scooters' or 'driving cars'. Suggestion: use plural when making general statements about a category, ensure subject-verb agreement, and maintain parallel structure for listed actions.

× They can exercise.

✓ They can get exercise.

While 'They can exercise' is grammatically acceptable, in context meaning 'they can get some exercise' or 'they can exercise' both work. If keeping modal 'can' plus base verb is intended, 'They can exercise' is fine; alternatively 'They can get exercise' clarifies that biking provides exercise. Suggestion: choose phrasing that matches intended meaning: 'They can exercise' (do exercise) or 'They can get exercise' (obtain exercise benefits).
