Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 20.0

Suggestion: Answer the question directly and use the past tense accurately: say “I didn’t have a bike” rather than “I didn’t have.” The rest of your answer is difficult to understand and does not clearly explain your childhood experience. If you add a detail, make sure it relates to whether you had a bike, and avoid fillers such as “uh.”

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I usually walked to nearby places, and my family didn’t think I needed one.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 45.0

Suggestion: Your answer gives relevant reasons, but several phrases are unclear or grammatically incorrect. Say “India is a densely populated country” instead of “it’s a congested people,” and “the second most populous country” instead of “it comes on #2 population wise.” Explain that bikes are convenient and affordable, and avoid saying “everyone” unless you mean it literally. Use shorter, clearer sentences.

Example: Yes, bikes are very popular in India. Since many cities are crowded and traffic can be heavy, a bike is often a convenient way to get around. It’s also relatively affordable and easy to park.

Grammar

26: Sentence structure errors

× No, I didn't have.

✓ No, I didn't have one.

The verb have needs an object in this answer. Use one to refer back to a bike without repeating the noun.

13: Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× during my young, when I just got young

✓ when I was young

Young is an adjective, so it does not work as a noun in during my young. Got young is also not the usual way to describe someone's age. Use when I was young.

11: Incorrect use of prepositions

× I just got breakfast for myself by my money.

✓ I just got breakfast for myself with my own money.

By is not the appropriate preposition for describing the money used to pay for something. Use with my own money.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× I think it's very popular in my country

✓ I think they are very popular in my country

The question asks about bikes, which is plural. Use the plural pronoun they and the matching verb are rather than it and is.

1: Singular and plural issue

× as it's a congested people

✓ because it is a densely populated country

The singular article a cannot be used with the plural noun people in this construction. The correction describes the country as densely populated, which is a natural way to express the intended meaning.

26: Sentence structure errors

× it's it comes on #2 population wise

✓ it ranks second in terms of population

The original clause repeats the subject with it's and it, and comes on #2 is not a grammatical way to express a ranking. Use it ranks second in terms of population.

13: Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× everyone has a bike for that for their inconvenient

✓ everyone has a bike because it is convenient for them

Inconvenient is an adjective, but the sentence needs to describe the convenience of having a bike. Use convenient and remove the repeated for.

22: Article errors

× it's just reliable and pocket friendly thing to buy in India

✓ it's just a reliable and pocket-friendly thing to buy in India

The singular count noun thing needs the article a. The correction also uses the standard hyphenated form pocket-friendly before a noun.
