Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one brief supporting detail using a linking word. Avoid awkward phrasing like "I don't know how to bike"; use "I never learned to ride a bike."

Example: No, I never had a bike when I was a child. As a result, I never learned to ride one, although I sometimes wished I could join friends who cycled to the park.

Suggestion: Give a clear, grammatical topic sentence and then add one or two specific supporting details with linking words. Correct verb forms and reduce hesitation. For example, say who uses bikes and why (cost, convenience, environment).

Example: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. For example, many people use them for daily commuting because they are cheap and convenient, and there are also many dedicated bike lanes in large cities.

× I didn't have a bike when I was a child and I don't know how to bike either.

✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a child, and I don't know how to ride a bike either.

The sentence mixes correct past-tense negative 'didn't have' with an awkward verb choice 'to bike' in present tense. The phrase 'know how to bike' is understandable but nonstandard; the usual collocation is 'ride a bike.' Keep the negation 'didn't have' for past possession and use present tense 'don't know' for current ability. Suggestion: use 'ride a bike' for native phrasing and include a comma before 'and' to separate clauses.

× Yes, bike is very popular in my country because a lot of people using bikes and everyday travel or a lot of cycle cycling, I don't know.

✓ Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because a lot of people use them to travel every day or cycle a lot.

Multiple problems here: 'bike' should be plural 'bikes' to match 'are' (subject-verb agreement) and the idea of general popularity; this relates to article/plural choice. The verb phrase 'a lot of people using' is ungrammatical; it needs a finite verb 'use.' Use 'use them to travel every day' or 'cycle a lot' for clarity. Also replace 'everyday' (adjective) with 'every day' (adverbial phrase). Remove hedging 'I don't know' or place it separately. Suggestion: form clear clause structure: subject + verb + object and proper plural forms.
