Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 30.0

Suggestion: Answer the question directly in the past tense. Correct the word “pie” to “bike,” and use “didn’t have” and “rode” instead of “don’t have” and “ride.” Avoid unclear phrases such as “same day I went to the bike” and “some another’s bike.” Add one specific detail about whose bike you rode or how you felt about it. Use a linking word such as “however” or “although” to connect contrasting ideas.

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because my parents thought it was unsafe. However, I sometimes rode my cousin’s bike in the park, and I really enjoyed it.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 35.0

Suggestion: State your opinion clearly at the beginning, for example, “Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country.” Use natural expressions such as “a convenient means of transportation” instead of “the transfer from an easy way.” Explain why bikes are popular by giving specific reasons, such as avoiding traffic, saving money, or improving fitness. Replace “That’s why I do” with a clear concluding sentence, and use the plural form “bikes” consistently.

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in large cities. They are a convenient and inexpensive way to travel because people can avoid traffic and save money on public transportation. In addition, many people ride bikes to stay fit.

Grammar

5: Past tense issue

× I don't have that kind of pie when I was a child because I don't like our pie.

✓ I didn't have that kind of bike when I was a child because I didn't like bikes.

The question asks about a past period, so the past tense is needed: did not have and did not like. Also, bikes is the natural plural noun when speaking about bikes in general.

11: Incorrect use of prepositions

× But same day I went to the bike.

✓ But one day, I went to ride a bike.

The phrase go to the bike is not natural when you mean that you used a bike. Use go to ride a bike. One day is also the natural expression for introducing an event that happened in the past.

5: Past tense issue

× I ride some another's bike.

✓ I rode someone else's bike.

Because the event happened in the past, ride must change to its past-tense form, rode.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× I ride some another's bike.

✓ I rode someone else's bike.

Some another's is not a correct possessive expression. Use someone else's to show that the bike belonged to another person.

6: Present tense issue

× In this area we tried bikes popular because bike is the transfer from an easy way to our daily life.

✓ In this area, we find bikes popular because biking is an easy way to get around in our daily lives.

The question asks about a general situation in the present, so find is more appropriate than tried. Biking is used as the subject because the activity, rather than one individual bike, is an easy way to travel.

22: Article errors

× In this area we tried bikes popular because bike is the transfer from an easy way to our daily life.

✓ In this area, we find bikes popular because biking is an easy way to get around in our daily lives.

Use an before easy way because easy begins with a vowel sound and the noun way is singular and countable. The original phrase the transfer from an easy way uses an incorrect article and an unnatural noun phrase.

26: Sentence structure errors

× In this area we tried bikes popular because bike is the transfer from an easy way to our daily life.

✓ In this area, we find bikes popular because biking is an easy way to get around in our daily lives.

The original sentence combines several ideas in an unclear structure. A clear structure is subject plus verb plus complement: we find bikes popular. The reason can then be introduced with because.

26: Sentence structure errors

× That's why I do.

✓ That's why I think bikes are popular.

The verb do needs a clear object or complement in this context. Think bikes are popular directly expresses the reason for the student's opinion and completes the sentence.
