Score: 48.0Suggestion: Organize your reply with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar and vocabulary, and use linking words to present reasons and examples.

× When I was a child my grandparent bought me a very simple bike with was using by me when I went to school at primary school.
✓ When I was a child my grandparents bought me a very simple bike which I used when I went to primary school.
Error: 'grandparent' should be plural 'grandparents' if referring to both or a single grandparent must match context; 'with was using by me' is ungrammatical. The relative clause and passive/active form are incorrect. Suggestion: use 'which I used' (active voice) and 'primary school' without repetition. This fixes singular/plural and incorrect verb construction.
× It's is very popular in my country, you know, especially in the radius where people are living now in the countryside.
✓ It is very popular in my country, especially in rural areas where people live now in the countryside.
Error: 'It's is' is a duplication and 'radius' is the wrong noun; verb tense 'are living' is acceptable but 'live' is more natural for general statements. Suggestion: remove duplicate contraction, replace 'radius' with 'rural areas', and use simple present 'live' for habitual or general facts.
× We always use by for going around, going to school and even go to walks.
✓ We always use them for getting around, going to school and even going for walks.
Error: 'use by' is incorrect preposition and pronoun; 'go to walks' is incorrect collocation. Suggestion: use 'use them' (referring to bikes), 'for getting around' and 'going for walks'; maintain parallel gerund forms.
× And yes, you also can see that many people in the cities they prefer having buys for their working because of the.
✓ And yes, you can also see that many people in the cities prefer having bikes for commuting to work because of that.
Errors: unnecessary subject 'they' after 'cities' (redundant pronoun), 'buys' is misspelled (should be 'bikes'), 'for their working' is incorrect collocation. Suggestion: remove redundant pronoun, correct spelling to 'bikes', use 'commuting to work' and complete the phrase 'because of that' to clarify the reason.
