Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 35.0

Suggestion: Answer the question directly and avoid contradicting yourself: say “No, I didn’t” if you never had a bike. Use the correct possessive phrase “my parents,” and explain the reasons in a clear, natural sentence. Replace “traffic problem was very tremendous in the air” with a specific phrase such as “the heavy traffic in our area.”

Example: No, I didn’t. My parents wouldn’t let me ride a bike because I had a health problem, and they were also worried about the heavy traffic in our area.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 75.0

Suggestion: Your answer is relevant and gives a clear reason. For more natural grammar, keep the subject and verb consistent by saying “they’re convenient” rather than “it’s convenient.” You could also add one specific example, such as using bikes for short journeys.

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because they’re affordable and convenient for getting around. For example, many people use them for short trips to work or to nearby shops.

Grammar

22: Article errors

× Yes, I did not have a bike when I was child because he never parents did not allow to ride a bike because the throat condition and traffic problem was very tremendous in the air.

✓ Yes, I did not have a bike when I was a child because my parents never allowed me to ride one due to my throat condition and the heavy traffic.

The singular countable noun child needs the article a. Use a before child to make the phrase grammatically complete.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yes, I did not have a bike when I was child because he never parents did not allow to ride a bike because the throat condition and traffic problem was very tremendous in the air.

✓ Yes, I did not have a bike when I was a child because my parents never allowed me to ride one due to my throat condition and the heavy traffic.

He does not agree with parents, and the sentence needs an object pronoun after allowed. Use my parents and allowed me to ride. One can then replace the repeated noun bike.

11: Incorrect use of prepositions

× Yes, I did not have a bike when I was child because he never parents did not allow to ride a bike because the throat condition and traffic problem was very tremendous in the air.

✓ Yes, I did not have a bike when I was a child because my parents never allowed me to ride one due to my throat condition and the heavy traffic.

Before a noun phrase, use because of or due to rather than because by itself. The phrase in the air does not correctly express the cause here; omit it.

27: Subject-verb agreement errors

× Yes, I did not have a bike when I was child because he never parents did not allow to ride a bike because the throat condition and traffic problem was very tremendous in the air.

✓ Yes, I did not have a bike when I was a child because my parents never allowed me to ride one due to my throat condition and the heavy traffic.

In the original wording, the combined subject the throat condition and traffic problem is plural, so it would take were, not was. Rephrasing the cause as due to my throat condition and the heavy traffic avoids that subject-verb agreement error.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yes, generally speaking, bikes are very popular in my country because they are affordable to buy and it's very convenient to go everywhere.

✓ Yes, generally speaking, bikes are very popular in my country because they are affordable and make it very convenient to get around.

The sentence shifts from the plural subject bikes and pronoun they to singular it. Keep the reference consistent by using they and adding make it to express that bikes provide convenience.
