Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Candidato
No, I live in Bangkok and because of Bangkok is the main city in Thailand and we have that anyway to transport. Examples are BTS or MRTS.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Puntuación: 35.0Sugerencia: Answer in the past tense because the question asks about your childhood. Use “bike” rather than “bite,” and say “ride a bicycle” instead of “buy the bicycle” if you mean using it. Begin with a direct answer and add one specific detail about when or where you rode it.
Ejemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I really enjoyed riding it around my neighborhood after school, especially at weekends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Puntuación: 45.0Sugerencia: Make your answer more direct and avoid the unclear phrase “I live in Bangkok and because of Bangkok.” Explain that bikes are less popular in Bangkok because public transport is convenient, and use linking words such as “because” and “for example.” Use accurate terms such as “means of transportation” and “the BTS and MRT systems.”
Ejemplo: No, bikes are not particularly popular in Bangkok because the city has convenient public transportation. For example, many people use the BTS Skytrain or the MRT to travel around the city, especially during rush hour.
× Of course I have a bite and I like to buy the bicycle.
✓ Of course, I had a bike when I was a child, and I liked riding it.
The question asks about a past period, when you were a child, so the past tense had is required instead of have. The verb liked should also be in the past tense to describe a past preference. In addition, bike is the appropriate noun here; bite has a different meaning.
× No, I live in Bangkok and because of Bangkok is the main city in Thailand and we have that anyway to transport.
✓ No. Because Bangkok is the main city in Thailand, we have many forms of transportation.
Because must be followed by a complete clause, such as Bangkok is the main city. Because of must be followed by a noun or noun phrase, so because of Bangkok is incorrect. Use because when introducing a reason with a subject and verb.
× No, I live in Bangkok and because of Bangkok is the main city in Thailand and we have that anyway to transport. Examples are BTS or MRTS.
✓ No. I live in Bangkok, and because it is the main city in Thailand, we have many forms of transportation, such as the BTS and MRT.
The original response combines several ideas with too many ands, which creates an unclear sentence structure. Separate the main ideas and use such as to introduce examples. Use many forms of transportation instead of the unclear phrase that anyway to transport.
