Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Answer the question directly and avoid the unclear opening phrase “Or you just jump.” Use “ride a bike,” not “take a bike,” and say “when I was young” instead of “with a year.” Organize your response with a clear topic sentence followed by a reason or result. Avoid repeating the same idea in the final sentence.

Example: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My mom taught me how to ride it when I was about six years old, so I practiced every day. As a result, I became quite confident at cycling.

Suggestion: Give a clear answer first and connect your supporting details with linking words such as “for example” or “also.” Use “ride bikes” for people in general and “when she goes” or “when she went,” rather than “when she'd go.” Add a specific reason why bikes are popular, such as convenience, exercise, or avoiding traffic.

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. For example, I often see people cycling on the streets, especially in the morning. My mum also rides her bike to the swimming pool every day because it is convenient and gives her some exercise.

× Or you just jump.

✓ Or you just jumped.

The question asks about a past period in your childhood, so the verb should be in the simple past tense: jumped, not jump.

× Yes, I had a bike with a year and my mom taught me how to buy.

✓ Yes, I had a bike for a year, and my mom taught me how to buy.

Use for to describe the duration of time. For example, I had a bike for a year. With is not used to express this duration.

× Yes, I do While walking in the street I can see lots of people riding a bike and also my mum rides a bike when she'd go to the swimming pool every morning

✓ Yes, I do. While walking in the street, I can see lots of people riding a bike, and my mum rides a bike when she'd go to the swimming pool every morning.

The response contains two clauses joined without appropriate punctuation. Use a full stop after Yes, I do and a comma after the introductory phrase While walking in the street. This makes the sentence structure clearer.

× My mum rides a bike when she'd go to the swimming pool every morning.

✓ My mum rides a bike when she goes to the swimming pool every morning.

This sentence describes a regular present routine, so use the simple present tense. Would go is inappropriate here; use goes instead.

× My mum rides a bike when she go to the swimming pool every morning.

✓ My mum rides a bike when she goes to the swimming pool every morning.

She is a third-person singular subject, so the present-tense verb must end in -s. The correct form is goes, not go.
