Lỗi: sử dụng động từ 'was bored' là không đúng nghĩa; cần động từ sở hữu 'had' hoặc cấu trúc 'had a bike'. Ngoài ra câu cần cụm 'used to' hoặc 'that I used to' để diễn tả hành động lặp trong quá khứ. Cách sửa: thay 'was bored a bike' bằng 'had a bike' hoặc 'had a bike that I used to use to go to school'. Giải thích ngữ pháp: 'be bored' nghĩa là chán, không phù hợp; 'have' diễn tả sở hữu; 'used to' diễn tả thói quen trong quá khứ. Cải thiện: dùng 'had' + optional 'that I used to' để rõ nghĩa và mượt mà.

✓ Well, as far as I know, bikes are one of the most common means of transportation in my country. In fact, bikes are very inexpensive to buy and are also very convenient for commuting in my country.
Lỗi: 'as fast I know' sai chính tả/ cụm từ, đúng là 'as far as I know'. 'transportations' không đúng chỗ dùng; 'means of transportation' hoặc 'transport' là cách đúng. 'acquire inexpensive' sai từ; nên 'are very inexpensive to buy'. 'is also very convenient to commute' sai thỏa thuận chủ vị-động từ và giới từ: chủ ngữ 'bikes' số nhiều nên động từ phải 'are', và dùng 'convenient for commuting' hoặc 'convenient to commute by'. Cách sửa: thay cụm lỗi bằng các biểu đạt trên. Giải thích ngữ pháp: chú ý subject-verb agreement (plural subject needs plural verb), dùng đúng collocation 'convenient for commuting' và cố định 'as far as I know'.
