Part 1
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Puntuación: 78.0Sugerencia: You answer the question directly and add a relevant detail about when you first rode a bike. To sound more polished, avoid the conversational filler “Of course” and replace “like five or six” with “around five or six.” You could also add one specific detail about the bike or how you used it.
Ejemplo: Yes, I had a bike as a child. I first learned to ride when I was around five or six, and I used to ride it around my neighborhood.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Puntuación: 55.0Sugerencia: You give a clear opinion, but the answer includes several fillers (“yeah,” “I guess,” and “you know”) and the phrase “I would like to them to be more popular” is grammatically incorrect. Say “I’d like them to be more popular,” and use a clear linking phrase before your comparison. Give one specific reason or example to support your view. The country name is “Denmark.”
Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are fairly popular in my country, especially in cities. However, I’d like to see more people cycling because it’s an affordable and environmentally friendly way to travel. For example, cycling is much more common in Denmark.

× I would say so yeah, bikes are pretty popular in my country but I guess and actually I would like to them to be more popular.
✓ I would say so, yeah. Bikes are pretty popular in my country, but I would actually like them to be more popular.
The phrase 'would like to them to be' has an incorrect word order. With 'would like' followed by an object and an infinitive, use 'would like + object + to + verb': 'would like them to be.' The original also combines 'I guess' and 'actually' awkwardly; removing 'I guess' makes the sentence clearer.
× I would say so yeah, bikes are pretty popular in my country but I guess and actually I would like to them to be more popular.
✓ I would say so, yeah. Bikes are pretty popular in my country, but I would like them to be more popular.
The conjunction 'and' does not connect the ideas naturally in 'I guess and actually I would like...' Here, 'but' already introduces the contrast. Remove 'and' and use 'actually' only if you want to emphasize the opinion.
