Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Answer the question directly instead of repeating it. Use the past tense to describe your childhood, and add a specific detail or reason. Also, include the article "a" before "child" if you use that phrase.

Ejemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I often rode it around my neighborhood after school, and it was a great way to have fun and stay active.

Sugerencia: Give a complete answer by stating your opinion clearly: "Yes, I think they are." Then support your opinion with a reason and, if possible, a specific example. Avoid ending with the incomplete phrase "Yes, I think."

Ejemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. Many people use them to exercise or travel short distances because they are affordable and environmentally friendly.

× Did you have a bike when you were child?

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?

The singular countable noun child needs an article. Use the indefinite article a in the expression a child. Remember to use an article before singular countable nouns when referring to one person or thing.

× Yes, I think.

✓ Yes, I do.

The question begins with Do you think, so the natural short answer uses the auxiliary verb do: Yes, I do. Yes, I think is incomplete in this context because think normally needs a following clause or idea, such as Yes, I think they are popular.
