Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Use the past simple because the question asks about your childhood: say “No, I didn’t” rather than “No, I haven’t.” You can add one relevant detail, such as whether you learned to ride a bike or why you did not have one.

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it was safer for me to walk to school.

Suggestion: Answer directly and avoid repeating yourself or using fillers such as “uh.” Explain your opinion in a complete sentence, and connect your reason with a linking word such as “because.” Use clear, accurate vocabulary to describe what people usually do.

Example: No, I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country because most people prefer to drive or take public transportation.

× No, I haven't.

✓ No, I didn't.

The question asks about a finished period in the past: 'when you were a child.' Use the simple past auxiliary 'did' in the answer, not the present perfect 'have.'
