Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be concise, correct grammar and avoid repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence in simple past (e.g. “Yes, I did”). Remove questions about the examiner or parent’s thoughts unless they are relevant. Use one or two supporting details (who bought it, its appearance, and how you felt) linked logically with words like “and” or “so.” Keep to no more than 3–4 short sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I did. My mother bought me a black-and-green bike when I was six to help me learn how to ride. I practiced in the park every weekend, so I became confident and really enjoyed cycling.

Sugestão: Answer directly and support with specific reasons and a linking word. Use correct noun phrases and avoid repeating words like “so” consecutively. Provide one specific example or consequence to make your point stronger and finish with a brief conclusion or opinion.

Exemplo: No, I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country because cities have very heavy traffic and few safe bike lanes. For example, main roads are crowded with cars during rush hour, which makes cycling dangerous for commuters. Therefore most people prefer to use cars or public transport.

× Yes, I have a bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike.

The question asks about possession in the past ('Did you have a bike when you were a child?'), so the response should use past tense. Using present tense 'have' conflicts with the time frame. Use past simple 'had' to match the past reference. Suggestion: Match the verb tense to the time expression; here replace 'have' with 'had'.

× When I was a child, my mom bought me a bike to encourage me to try to learn how to ride a bicycle bike.

✓ When I was a child, my mom bought me a bike to encourage me to learn how to ride a bicycle.

Redundant and awkward phrasing: 'try to learn to ride' is wordy and 'bicycle bike' repeats meaning. The main idea is purpose in the past, so past simple 'bought' is correct. Simplify to 'to encourage me to learn how to ride a bicycle.' Suggestion: Remove redundancy and use a concise infinitive phrase 'to learn how to ride a bicycle.'

× Does she think this is a essential skills for a person?

✓ Did she think this was an essential skill for a person?

The sentence uses wrong tense, subject time reference, and incorrect article/number agreement. The examiner asked about past events, so use past 'did she think' and 'was.' 'a essential skills' is incorrect: 'a' requires singular noun; use 'an essential skill.' Also 'for a person' is acceptable but can be kept. Suggestion: Use correct tense and agreement: 'Did she think this was an essential skill for a person?'

× The bike is in black and green and I love it really much.

✓ The bike was black and green, and I loved it very much.

Tense should match the past context: 'was' and 'loved' instead of present forms. Also 'really much' is non-idiomatic; use 'very much.' 'is in black and green' is awkward — use 'was black and green.' Suggestion: Use past tense and idiomatic adverb placement: 'The bike was black and green, and I loved it very much.'

× No, I don't think bikes are popular in my country.

✓ No, I don't think bikes are popular in my country.

This sentence is grammatically acceptable as present tense expresses general truth, so no change is required. Keep present simple for general statements. Suggestion: None needed.

× So the country I lived in is all famous for its busy traffic.

✓ The country I live in is famous for its heavy traffic.

Mismatch of tense and unnatural phrasing: 'the country I lived in' implies past residence but context suggests current general statement; use present 'live' if still true. 'is all famous' is unidiomatic and should be 'is famous.' 'busy traffic' is acceptable, but 'heavy traffic' is more natural. Suggestion: Decide correct time reference; if still living there use present: 'The country I live in is famous for its heavy traffic.' If referring to past residence, use past: 'The country I lived in was famous for its heavy traffic.'

× So there is a lot of cars on the road and it would be quite dangerous for people to ride on the road.

✓ There are a lot of cars on the road, and it is quite dangerous for people to ride bicycles there.

Subject-verb agreement: 'a lot of cars' requires plural verb 'are' (Grammar problem type 1 and 27), not 'is.' Also repeating 'on the road' is redundant. 'It would be quite dangerous' is conditional and acceptable, but 'it is quite dangerous' fits the general statement. Use 'ride bicycles' rather than just 'ride' for clarity. Suggestion: Correct agreement and improve clarity: 'There are a lot of cars on the road, and it is quite dangerous for people to ride bicycles there.'
