Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Answer the question directly and use a clear past-tense structure. Avoid repeating ideas such as “I remember,” and replace unnatural expressions like “when I was small” with “when I was young,” “pay effort” with “make an effort,” and “you learn” with “you learn” only when speaking generally or “I learned” when referring to your own experience. Use a linking word such as “Although” to connect the positive and challenging aspects of learning to ride. Keep the answer to three or four well-organized sentences.

Example: Yes, I had a bike when I was young. It was blue and silver, and my dad taught me how to ride it. Although learning was tiring at first, I was very happy when I finally managed to ride on my own.

Suggestion: Give a complete answer with a clear reason and finish the final sentence. Correct the unnatural phrases “popular recently” to “increasingly popular” or “quite popular these days,” “public bicycle for people to win” to “public bicycles that people can rent,” and “paths the bicycle” to “cycling paths.” Use linking words to organize your ideas, such as “For example” and “In addition.” Mention both public bicycle systems and cycling paths, but avoid listing ideas in one long, incomplete sentence.

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in large cities. Many cities have public bicycles that people can rent, and they are also building more cycling paths. As a result, both adults and children often ride bikes for transportation, exercise, or leisure.

× I mean remember that it was a happy but tiring moment when you learn something new, you must pay effort.

✓ I mean, I remember that it was a happy but tiring moment. When you learn something new, you must make an effort.

The phrase I mean remember is missing the subject I before remember. The original also joins two complete ideas with a comma, creating a comma splice. Separate them into two sentences. Make an effort is the natural expression in English.

× Yes, bikes are very popular in our country recently.

✓ Yes, bikes have recently become very popular in our country.

Recently refers to a change that has happened in the near past and continues to be relevant now. The present perfect form have become is more appropriate than the simple present form are in this context.

× We have public bicycle for people to win and then we have some paths the bicycle the cycling path for the cyclists to ride.

✓ We have public bicycles for people to rent, and we also have some bicycle paths for cyclists to ride on.

Bicycles should be plural because the speaker is referring to a public bicycle system in general. Bicycle paths should also be plural because there is more than one path. The word win is not suitable in this context; rent is the appropriate verb for obtaining a public bicycle temporarily.

× We have public bicycle for people to win and then we have some paths the bicycle the cycling path for the cyclists to ride.

✓ We have public bicycles for people to rent, and we also have some bicycle paths for cyclists to ride on.

When describing cycling on a path, use the preposition on: ride on a path. The preposition makes the relationship between the cyclists and the paths clear.

× We have public bicycle for people to win and then we have some paths the bicycle the cycling path for the cyclists to ride.

✓ We have public bicycles for people to rent, and we also have some bicycle paths for cyclists to ride on.

The original sentence contains several incomplete and incorrectly connected phrases, such as some paths the bicycle and the cycling path. Use a clear sentence structure with a subject, verb, and complete object.

× Not only the adults can ride their bicycles, the children also.

✓ Not only adults but also children can ride their bicycles.

The correlative conjunction pair not only...but also must be used together to connect two parallel groups. The original sentence uses not only without but also and leaves the second clause incomplete.

× Not only the adults can ride their bicycles, the children also.

✓ Not only adults but also children can ride their bicycles.

The original sentence is incomplete because the children also does not contain a complete verb phrase. The corrected sentence gives both subjects the same complete verb phrase: can ride their bicycles.
