Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 72.0Sugestão: Be more concise and correct verb tenses, start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repetition (e.g. "back when I was a child" and "when I'm not at school").
Exemplo: Yes. I had a small bicycle as a child. I used to ride it around my neighborhood after school, and I learned to balance on it at about nine years old because my father taught me.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 64.0Sugestão: Give a focused topic sentence, use correct plural and articles ("ride bikes", "have special gear"), and organize reasons with linking words (e.g. "Firstly", "Moreover"). Be specific: mention where and why people ride and give one concrete example or statistic if possible. Limit to 2–3 sentences.
Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my province. For example, many people commute by bike around the city because it is cheap and healthy; moreover, cycling clubs organise weekend rides and people often buy cycling gear to join them.
× Yes, I had it back when I was a child.
✓ Yes, I had one when I was a child.
The original sentence uses 'it' which is ambiguous; also 'back when' is informal but acceptable. Correction replaces 'it' with 'one' to clearly refer to 'a bike' mentioned in the question. Use of past tense 'had' is correct for a past possession.
× It was a small bicycle that I used to ride around my neighborhood when I'm not at school, and I learned to balance on it when I was about nine years old because my father taught me.
✓ It was a small bicycle that I used to ride around my neighborhood when I wasn't at school, and I learned to balance on it when I was about nine years old because my father taught me.
The clause 'when I'm not at school' mixes present tense with past narrative; this is a tense inconsistency. Change to past tense 'when I wasn't at school' to match the past context. Other verbs ('used to ride', 'learned', 'taught') are correctly in past form.
× I think yes, especially in our province, a lot of people ride bike around the city and they also have special gears and they're, I think they're very interested in riding the bike and it's also a form of exercise and it's good for our health and our body.
✓ I think so. Especially in our province, a lot of people ride bikes around the city; they also use special gear, and I think they are very interested in cycling. It's also a form of exercise and is good for our health and bodies.
Multiple issues: 'I think yes' is unnatural; use 'I think so'. 'Ride bike' needs plural noun 'ride bikes' or 'ride a bike' (singular/plural agreement). 'Special gears' should be 'special gear' or 'special gears' depending on meaning — 'gear' as uncountable is more natural. The contraction 'they're, I think they're' is redundant; simplify to 'they are'. 'Riding the bike' repetitive; use 'cycling'. 'It's good for our health and our body' mixes plural 'health' with singular 'body' — change to plural 'bodies' or 'your body'. Also maintain present tense for general facts, which is appropriate here.
