Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Make the response grammatically correct, more natural, and slightly longer (1–3 sentences). Start with a clear topic sentence that directly answers the question, then add a brief reason or short detail. Avoid filler words and tense errors (use past tense).

Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family couldn’t afford one, so I usually walked to school or took the bus.

Sugestão: Provide a clear topic sentence and then give specific supporting details using linking words. Remove fillers like “umm” and use plural/consistent forms and clearer reasons (e.g., convenience, cost, environment). Keep it within 2–4 sentences for coherence.

Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. For example, many people cycle to work or to visit friends because it is cheaper and faster in congested areas. Moreover, cycling is environmentally friendly and good exercise, so a lot of people prefer it for short trips.

× Unfortunately I don't have a bike back then.

✓ Unfortunately I didn't have a bike back then.

The time expression 'back then' refers to the past, so the past tense should be used. 'Don't have' is present tense and mismatches the past time frame. Use simple past 'didn't have'. Suggestion: identify time markers (e.g. 'back then', 'when I was a child') to choose past tense verbs.

× Yes, it is because umm, sometimes some of the people here are using bike to go to work or to umm, visit friends.

✓ Yes, it is because sometimes people here use bikes to go to work or visit friends.

Multiple issues: subject-verb agreement and plural/singular noun form. 'Some of the people' is wordy; 'people' is sufficient. 'Are using bike' is incorrect: 'use' (simple present) is appropriate for habitual actions and 'bikes' should be plural to agree with 'people'. Also remove unnecessary 'are' continuous form. Suggestion: for habitual facts use simple present and match noun number (people use bikes).

× And it is good to own a bike because it is umm, it helps you a lot.

✓ And it is good to own a bike because it helps you a lot.

Redundant pronoun 'it' before 'helps' creates awkwardness; also sentence otherwise acceptable. The phrase 'own a bike' is fine singularly. Remove the extra 'it' to form 'because it helps you a lot.' Suggestion: avoid repeating pronouns unnecessarily and keep sentences concise.
