Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is clear and natural, but it is slightly repetitive and could be more concise and informative. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using a linking word. Avoid stating obvious facts (e.g., “it had two wheels”) and instead include a personal detail or reason to enrich the response.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike as a child. However, my sister did — she rode a purple bicycle, and I would often watch her practice in the park because my parents thought riding was unsafe for me at the time. As a result, I never learned to ride until I was older.

Gợi ý: Good content and relevance. Improve coherence by using linking words and more specific examples or reasons (e.g., public bike-sharing systems, cycle lanes, cost and convenience). Combine similar ideas to avoid repetition and add one sentence about how this affects daily life.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because of widespread bike-sharing programs and affordable rental schemes. For example, many students and office workers use dockless rental bikes to commute short distances, which reduces traffic congestion and commuting costs.

× I did not have a bike when I was a child.

✓ I did not have a bike when I was a child.

This sentence is already correct: it uses simple past tense appropriately (did not have) to describe a past state. No change needed.

× I never learned how to ride one.

✓ I never learned how to ride one.

This sentence correctly uses the simple past tense to describe an action that did not happen in the past. No change needed.

× My sister, however, did learn to ride one and she had a bicycle.

✓ My sister, however, learned to ride one, and she had a bicycle.

Use of 'did learn' is grammatically acceptable but sounds emphatic; the simple past 'learned' is more natural in this narrative context. Also add a comma before 'and' to join independent clauses. Keep tense consistent (simple past) for past events.

× It was purple and had two wheels.

✓ It was purple and had two wheels.

Sentence is correct: 'it' refers to the bicycle (singular) and 'two wheels' is correct plural form. No change needed.

× Bikes are quite common in our country because there are bikes that you can pay a fee to use.

✓ Bikes are quite common in our country because there are bikes you can pay a fee to use.

The original is understandable but slightly wordy. Removing the second 'that' makes the relative clause more natural: 'bikes you can pay a fee to use.' Tense (present simple) is appropriate for a general fact.

× There are bikes that are just out in the open and many students ride on their bikes while they're going to school.

✓ There are bikes that are just out in the open, and many students ride their bikes when they go to school.

Replace 'ride on their bikes' with 'ride their bikes' for natural collocation (verb + object). Use 'when they go to school' instead of continuous 'while they're going to school' to express habitual action with present simple. Add a comma before 'and' to join independent clauses.
