Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: You answer the question directly and give a relevant reason. To sound more natural, say “cycle lanes” or “bike lanes” and avoid repeating “bike” in the same sentence. You could also add one specific detail about where you rode or how often you used it.

Ejemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. However, there weren’t many bike lanes in my neighborhood, so I usually rode it in a nearby park instead of on the roads.

Sugerencia: You give a clear opinion and relevant reasons, but the explanation is repetitive: “because” is used several times, and “the reasoning behind this statement is because” is unnatural. Use “ride to work” rather than “write to work,” and avoid “and etc.” Add a specific example, such as people using bikes for short commutes.

Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. Since cars have become expensive because of inflation, many people choose bicycles for short journeys. They’re also economical to run because they don’t require fuel, so some people use them to commute to work.

× So people opt for bicycles because they do not need fuel to run and it is cheaper and more economical to write to work and etc.

✓ So people opt for bicycles because they do not need fuel to run and they are cheaper and more economical to write to work and etc.

The pronoun it is singular, but it refers to bicycles, which is plural. Use they and the plural verb are to agree with bicycles.
