Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 70.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid grammatical errors and informal phrasing (e.g., '2 Wheeler', 'go by walk').

Example: No, I didn't have a bike as a child. My parents considered two-wheelers too risky, so I usually walked or took public transport to school. As a result, I became used to commuting on foot and using buses for longer trips.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: Use a clear topic sentence, correct grammar, and avoid colloquial fillers like 'you know'. Provide specific reasons and one example; use linking words (for example, because, therefore). Also fix subject-verb agreement and redundant phrases.

Example: Yes, motorcycles and scooters are very popular in India. They are more affordable than cars and easier to park, so many teenagers and young adults use them for daily travel. For example, students often ride scooters to college because it saves time and petrol costs.

Grammar

Past tense issue

× No, I never had a bike in my childhood because my parents thought riding a 2 Wheeler was too risky and I also prefer to go by walk and use public transport.

✓ No, I never had a bike in my childhood because my parents thought riding a two-wheeler was too risky and I also preferred to go on foot and use public transport.

Mixed past and present tenses: the student describes childhood (past) so verbs should be past tense. 'Prefer' should be 'preferred'. 'Go by walk' is not idiomatic; use 'go on foot'. Also '2 Wheeler' should be written as 'two-wheeler' for clarity. Suggestion: keep time frame consistent by using past tense verbs and use natural collocations like 'go on foot'.

Present tense issue

× Yeah, bikes are popular in my country and I'm residing in India.

✓ Yeah, bikes are popular in my country and I live in India.

Awkward present continuous 'I'm residing' is uncommon for stating where you live; simple present 'I live' is correct. Use simple present for general facts and habitual states. 'Reside' is formal; if used, use simple present 'I reside in India'.

Subject-verb agreement errors

× Every teenager want to ride a bike and it is more affordable as compared to the four Wheeler.

✓ Every teenager wants to ride a bike, and it is more affordable compared to a four-wheeler.

Subject-verb agreement: singular subject 'Every teenager' requires singular verb 'wants'. 'as compared to' is wordy; 'compared to' suffices. 'four Wheeler' should be 'four-wheeler' and use an article 'a' for a single category. Suggestion: ensure verb agrees with subject and use concise comparative phrasing.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× And you know these youngsters are also prefer to ride a bike along with the their girlfriends or with their other friends as well.

✓ And you know these youngsters also prefer to ride a bike with their girlfriends or with other friends as well.

Pronoun error: 'the their' is incorrect; use 'their'. Also word order: 'are also prefer' mixes auxiliary with main verb incorrectly; use simple present 'prefer' after plural subject 'youngsters'. 'Along with' can be shortened to 'with'. Suggestion: remove redundant words and fix verb form to match subject and tense.
