Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Avoid turning the answer into a question back to the examiner. Give a clear direct response (topic sentence), then add a brief supporting detail. Correct grammar errors ("I was a child" → "I was a child" or better "when I was a child") and use linking words if adding detail.

Ejemplo: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child. However, I often borrowed my neighbour's bike to ride around the park on weekends.

Sugerencia: Answer directly about the present situation first (topic sentence), then give specific supporting details and use correct vocabulary and tenses ("bike" not "back"); use a linking word to connect ideas. Be concise and avoid repeating the same idea.

Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. When I was a child many of my friends owned bikes and rode them around the neighbourhood, and nowadays cycling is still common for short trips and recreation.

× I didn't have one when I was child, did you?

✓ I didn't have one when I was a child, did you?

Missing the article 'a' before the singular noun 'child'. In English, singular countable nouns generally require an article (a/an/the) or another determiner. Add 'a' to make the phrase grammatically correct: 'a child'. Suggestion: Always include an appropriate article before singular countable nouns (e.g., a child, the book).

× Actually, I think back is very popular in my country when I was a child, a lot of my friends have bikes and they always go around with them.

✓ Actually, I think bikes were very popular in my country when I was a child; a lot of my friends had bikes and they always went around with them.

Multiple tense and word-choice errors: 'think' (present) conflicts with 'when I was a child' (past), so use past 'thought' or reframe to past observation 'I think' to 'I thought' or better 'I think bikes were very popular...'. Also 'back' is a typo for 'bikes'. 'Have' and 'go' should be in past tense to match 'when I was a child', so use 'had' and 'went'. Use a semicolon or period to separate the clauses for clarity. Suggestion: Keep verb tenses consistent when referring to past periods; ensure subject-verb tense agreement and correct word choices (bikes, had, went).
