Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Answer directly using the past tense: “Yes, I did.” Then add one clear detail about the bike. Use “had” rather than “have” because you are talking about childhood. The final phrase is unclear; if you mean the bike had a princess design, say that directly. Reduce fillers such as “uh” and “umm.”

Ejemplo: Yes, I did. I had a little pink bike with a picture of a princess on it. I loved riding it around my neighborhood.

Sugerencia: Begin with a direct answer, then give a clear reason or example. Avoid repeating “in my country” and “because,” and use “cycling” or “bike riding” rather than “the bike sport.” Correct “a many places” to “many places.” Make the connection between the locations and bike popularity clearer, and avoid the unclear word “urbanization.”

Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. Many people enjoy cycling because we have beautiful mountain trails as well as bike-friendly routes in some cities. It is also a convenient way to get around.

× Yes, I have uh, when I was a child, I have my little uh, pink bike.

✓ Yes, when I was a child, I had a little pink bike.

The speaker is talking about a past time, indicated by when I was a child, so the past-tense form had is needed instead of have. Avoid repeating the same idea in two clauses; state it once for a clearer answer.

× And this bike, umm, colored the Princess and write the Princess.

✓ The bike was decorated with princesses and had the word Princess written on it.

The bike receives the decoration, so use the passive form was decorated rather than making the bike the subject that performs the action. The phrase had the word Princess written on it also expresses that the word appeared on the bike.

× Because we have a many places for the for them like mountains and the nature and in, in the urbanization.

✓ Because we have many places for them, such as mountains, nature, and urban areas.

Many is a quantifier that directly modifies a plural countable noun, so do not put a before many. Use many places, not a many places.

× ...like mountains and the nature...

✓ ...such as mountains and nature...

Nature is used generally here, so it normally does not take the definite article. Say nature rather than the nature.
