Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your answer is direct and concise, which is good, but it's too short and lacks detail. To improve, give a brief topic sentence and then add one or two supporting details (reason, context or a short example). Keep it natural and avoid redundancy; use a linking word if you add details. Aim for 2–4 sentences in total.

Exemplo: No, I didn't. My family couldn't afford one when I was young, and we relied on walking or public transport instead. As a result, I didn’t learn to ride a bike until I was a teenager.

Sugestão: Your answer addresses the question but has grammatical errors, vague phrasing, and repetition. Improve by giving a clear topic sentence, then add specific supporting details or examples using linking words (e.g., because, for example, therefore). Use correct grammar and more precise vocabulary (e.g., ‘affordable’ instead of ‘cheap’, ‘widespread’ instead of ‘common people’). Limit to 2–4 sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys. For example, many students and shopkeepers use bicycles to commute, and cities often have bike lanes, which makes cycling a practical choice.

× Yes, because it's so convenient and it's cheap.

✓ Yes, because they're so convenient and they're cheap.

The student is referring to 'bikes' (plural). The verbs and pronouns must agree in number. 'It's' (it is) is singular and should be 'they're' (they are) to match the plural noun 'bikes'. Use plural pronouns and plural verb forms when referring to plural nouns. Suggestion: Replace singular 'it's' with 'they're' when talking about 'bikes'. Use 'they are' in formal speech.

× So many children can buy it and though they are common people.

✓ So many children can buy them, and they are ordinary people.

There are two issues: first, 'it' is a singular pronoun but should refer to 'bikes' (plural), so use 'them'. Second, 'though they are common people' is awkward and ungrammatical in context; likely the student meant 'they are common' or 'they are ordinary people'. 'Common people' is informal and can be unclear. Also 'though' is inappropriate here. Suggestion: Use 'them' to match plural 'bikes' and rephrase to 'they are ordinary people' or simply 'they are common' depending on intended meaning.
