Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Begin with a direct answer, then give one or two supporting details. Improve grammatical accuracy by saying “I loved the bike” instead of “I loved them bike” and “we would race each other” instead of “I will we will race Egger.” Use the past tense consistently because you are describing your childhood. Although “rad” is understandable, “really cool” or “a great bike” sounds more natural in the IELTS context.

Ejemplo: Yes, I did. I had a really cool bike when I was about eight, and I often rode it to school with my friends because it was quicker than walking. I loved it because it was light and easy to ride. On the way home, we would sometimes race each other.

Sugerencia: Answer the question directly and use the correct plural forms and prepositions. Say “people usually drive cars” rather than “they usually drive car,” and say “go to school or work” rather than “go to school to work.” Add a specific reason or comparison to make the answer more developed, and use a linking word such as “because” or “although.”

Ejemplo: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country. Most people usually drive cars to school or work because the distances are quite long and public roads can be unsafe for cyclists. However, bikes are becoming more common in parks and on university campuses.

× I loved them bike.

✓ I loved my bike.

The possessive pronoun them refers to plural people or things and cannot show that the bike belonged to the speaker. Use my before a noun to indicate possession.

× Sometimes I will we will race Egger on the way home.

✓ Sometimes I would race Egger on the way home.

The response describes a repeated action in the past, so would is appropriate for a past habit. Will is used for the future, and the repeated phrase will we will is grammatically incorrect.

× They usually drive car.

✓ They usually drive cars.

The plural subject they requires a plural countable noun when referring to cars in general. Therefore, car should be changed to cars.

× Go to school to work or something else.

✓ Go to school or work, or do something else.

The phrase to work incorrectly connects two alternatives. Use or to show the alternatives school and work. The revised structure also makes the final alternative grammatically parallel.
