Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid contradictions like "until now" if you still cannot ride — clarify current status. Also correct minor grammar (use contractions appropriately and punctuation).

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. As a result, I never learned to ride; I only started practicing a few years ago using a friend’s bicycle, so I’m still improving.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence, then support it with two specific reasons using linking words. Fix grammar and choose precise vocabulary (e.g. "main mode of transport" instead of "main use transportation"). Use connectors like "because" and "therefore" to improve coherence and avoid repetition.

Example: No, bikes are not very popular in my country. This is because the main mode of transport is cars, and consequently roads and infrastructure prioritize motor vehicles rather than cycle lanes.

× No, I didn't have a bike so I never learned how to ride a bike until now.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike, so I never learned how to ride a bike when I was a child.

The student is speaking about childhood (past time). Using 'until now' mixes past with present and is incorrect here. Change to a past time expression such as 'when I was a child' or 'until I was older' so the tense is consistent. Also add a comma before 'so' to separate clauses.

× No I don't think so.

✓ No, I don't think so.

Missing comma after introductory 'No' is a punctuation issue affecting sentence flow; although not listed as punctuation, a brief pause is needed. The present tense 'don't think' is appropriate.

× I don't think bikes are popular in my country cause the main use transportation in my country is are cars.

✓ I don't think bikes are popular in my country because the main mode of transportation here is cars.

'Cause' is informal and should be 'because' in a formal answer. The phrase 'main use transportation' is incorrect; 'main mode of transportation' is natural. Also 'is are cars' incorrectly combines singular and plural verbs; choose 'is cars' is ungrammatical, so rephrase to 'here is cars' or better 'here is cars' still awkward; the corrected natural structure is 'the main mode of transportation here is cars' or 'most people use cars.' This fixes subject-verb agreement and word choice.

× So the roads are most mostly designed for cars but not bicycles.

✓ So the roads are mostly designed for cars, not for bicycles.

The phrase 'most mostly' is redundant; use 'mostly.' 'Designed for cars but not bicycles' is understandable but 'not for bicycles' is clearer. Add a comma before the contrasting clause. Use 'for' before 'bicycles' to parallel 'for cars.'
