Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Answer directly, and use the correct past-tense structure: after “didn’t,” use the base verb “have.” You could add a brief reason or detail, such as whether you borrowed a bike or wanted one.

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family didn’t think I needed one, so I usually walked or played with friends nearby.

Suggestion: Your answer is clear, but “I have seen a lot of people riding bikes” is a general observation. Add a specific reason or example, such as their use for commuting or exercise, and avoid repeating “bikes” unnecessarily.

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. Many people use them to commute because they’re convenient and inexpensive, and others ride them for exercise.

× When I was a child I didn't had a bike.

✓ When I was a child, I didn't have a bike.

After the past-tense auxiliary did, use the base form of the verb, have, not the past-tense form had. The auxiliary did already marks the past tense.
