Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Answer directly, then add one or two relevant details. Use the past tense consistently: change “I really like” to “I really liked,” and use “riding” rather than “writing.” Avoid repeating “so” and replace the vague phrase “this thing” with “my bike.”

Ejemplo: Yes, I had a bike as a child. It was pink and yellow, and I loved riding it around the neighborhood. Whenever I had free time, I would go cycling with my friends, so it became one of my favorite hobbies.

Sugerencia: Give a direct answer and support it with a specific reason or example. Avoid repeating “many people prefer,” and say “look out of my window,” not “look at my window.” You could also clarify whether you mean bicycles or motorbikes, since “bikes” can refer to either.

Ejemplo: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in parks and along cycling paths. Many people ride them for exercise or to relax at the weekend. For example, I often see cyclists passing by when I look out of my window.

× Of course, I had a bike when I was a child and I really like this thing.

✓ Of course, I had a bike when I was a child and I really liked this thing.

The sentence refers to the speaker’s childhood, a finished period in the past. Use the past-tense form liked to keep the verb tense consistent with had and was.

× It was pink and yellow and I really like writing it.

✓ It was pink and yellow and I really liked writing it.

The sentence describes a bike the speaker had as a child, so the past-tense form liked is needed to match was. Use the past tense when describing feelings or activities during that finished period.

× So I can see a lot of bikes if I look at my window.

✓ So I can see a lot of bikes if I look out of my window.

Use look out of my window to describe looking from inside a room through the window. Look at my window usually means directing your gaze toward the window itself.
