Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: 質問は過去の経験について尋ねているため、現在形の「I have」ではなく過去形の「I did」または「I had」を使いましょう。また、単独の短い答えだけで終わらず、子どもの頃の自転車について具体的な情報を1つ加えると、より自然で効果的です。

Ejemplo: Yes, I did. I had a blue bike when I was about eight years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends.

Sugerencia: 「Yes, I think so, but」の後に対比を明確にするため、「bikes are less popular than cars」と表現すると自然です。「bike bike rider」は誤りなので、「cyclists」または「people who ride bikes」を使いましょう。また、「the number ... is not too much」ではなく、「there are not as many cyclists as car drivers」や「bikes are not as common as cars」と言うと正確です。理由や具体例を1つ加え、比較表現と linking word を使って答えを発展させましょう。

Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are fairly popular in my country, especially among students and people who exercise. However, they are not as common as cars because many people commute long distances and prefer driving. In large cities, cycling is becoming more popular because it is affordable and environmentally friendly.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

The question uses the simple past tense, Did you have...? Therefore, the answer should also use did, not have. Use Yes, I did to answer a question about a past experience.

× Yes, I think so but compared to a car, the number of bike bike rider is not too much.

✓ Yes, I think so, but compared with cars, the number of bike riders is not very high.

The noun rider refers to more than one person, so it should be plural: riders. Also, bike bike is an unnecessary repetition. Use bike riders when referring to people who ride bikes.

× Yes, I think so but compared to a car, the number of bike bike rider is not too much.

✓ Yes, I think so, but compared with cars, the number of bike riders is not very high.

The answer compares bikes in general with cars in general, so cars is a more appropriate comparison object than a car. Use compared with cars when making a general comparison between two types of transportation.

× Yes, I think so but compared to a car, the number of bike bike rider is not too much.

✓ Yes, I think so, but compared with cars, the number of bike riders is not very high.

High is the natural adjective used with number to describe the size of a quantity. Too much is normally used with uncountable nouns, such as time or money, and is not natural in the phrase the number of bike riders is not too much.
