Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and grammatically correct. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using correct tense and linking words. Avoid repetition and correct vocabulary (e.g., ‘fell off’ instead of ‘fare’).

Example: Yes, I did. I loved riding my bike around UMM Park with my friends, and we often spent entire afternoons exploring the paths. However, I sometimes fell off and scraped my knee, which made those memories both fun and a little painful.

Suggestion: Give a clear direct answer, use accurate comparisons and linking words, and provide specific reasons or examples. Correct grammar (e.g., ‘compared with 20 years ago’, ‘far from the city’) and avoid vague phrases.

Example: I think bicycles are less popular now compared with 20 years ago. Nowadays many people prefer cars because cities have expanded and destinations are farther away, so driving is more convenient for commuting and long trips.

× Absolutely. Absolutely yes. I like riding bicycles when I was a kid and I always riding bicycle with my friends around the UMM park and sometimes I fare from my bicycle.

✓ Absolutely. Absolutely yes. I liked riding bicycles when I was a kid and I always rode a bicycle with my friends around the UMM park and sometimes I fell from my bicycle.

Errors involve inconsistent tense and incorrect verb forms. 'I like riding bicycles when I was a kid' mixes present ('like') with past time reference ('when I was a kid'); change to past 'liked'. 'I always riding bicycle' lacks auxiliary or correct past form; use 'always rode a bicycle' (subject-verb agreement and correct past tense). 'I fare from my bicycle' uses wrong verb 'fare' — intended meaning is 'fall', past 'fell'. Suggestion: keep all verbs in past tense when describing past habitual actions and use correct past forms of irregular verbs. Grammar problem type ID: 6 | 5 | 8 | 9 | 27

× From my perspective, bicycles are popular in my country, but compare with 20 years ago.

✓ From my perspective, bicycles are popular in my country, but less so compared with 20 years ago.

The phrase 'but compare with 20 years ago' is ungrammatical. Use 'compared with' or 'compared to' and include a clear adjective or adverb to express change: 'less so compared with 20 years ago.' Suggestion: use 'less so' or 'not as popular as' plus 'compared with/ to' for comparisons with a past time. Grammar problem type ID: 26 | 25 | 16

× Nowadays people prefer using cars because we can drive car to some place that very far from our city.

✓ Nowadays people prefer using cars because we can drive to places that are very far from our city.

Multiple issues: 'drive car' needs an article or plural form: use 'drive a car' or 'drive to places'; the intended meaning is general, so 'cars' and 'places' plural are appropriate. 'some place that very far from our city' is ungrammatical — include verb 'are' and use 'places' and 'very far from our city.' Suggestion: restructure to 'drive to places that are very far from our city' or 'drive a car to some places that are very far from our city.' Grammar problem type ID: 11 | 22 | 26
