Did you have a bike when you were a child?
점수: 55.0제안: Answer directly using the past tense: “I didn’t have a bike.” Use the correct article in “when I was a child” and avoid repeating fillers such as “uh.” Also, finish the explanation clearly instead of ending with “and.” You could add a specific reason, such as being too young to ride safely.
예시: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because I was too young to ride one safely. I started cycling when I was about ten, and I really enjoyed it because it gave me more freedom to travel around my neighborhood.

예시: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. A lot of people use them for exercise and to avoid traffic, while others make cycling videos for YouTube. In addition, bike-sharing services have made cycling more convenient in large cities.
