Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details. Avoid repetition and fix tense/word order errors (e.g., “I would ride it everywhere on weekends”). Use linking words if needed (for example, “also” or “in addition”).

Exemplo: Yes — I did. I had a small teal bicycle with a front basket. I often decorated it with charms, and I used to ride it everywhere on weekends with my friends.

Sugestão: Give a direct, organized answer and avoid filler words. State your main point once, then support it with two clear reasons using linking words (e.g., “because” and “also”). Correct awkward phrasing like “used to go with a bike.” Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular. This is mainly because many people don’t have driver’s licenses and the country is small, so destinations are close; bikes are faster and cheaper than driving.

× I had a teal colored small bicycle with a basket on the front.

✓ I had a small teal-colored bicycle with a basket on the front.

Adjective order in English typically places size before color (opinion/size + color). Also compound color modifiers use a hyphen when preceding a noun (teal-colored). Suggestion: use 'small teal-colored bicycle'.

× I would put charms on the wheels and would write it everywhere when I during the weekends.

✓ I would put charms on the wheels and write on it everywhere during the weekends.

The original has extra auxiliary 'would' and an incorrect phrase 'when I during the weekends'. Use parallel verbs with one 'would' omitted for the second verb: 'would put... and write...'. Also use 'on it' to refer to the bicycle and 'during the weekends' (or 'on weekends'). Suggestion: 'I would put charms on the wheels and write on it everywhere during the weekends.'

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is correct. It uses the present tense appropriately to ask about a general fact. No change needed.

× I think it is mainly because not everyone has a driver's license and because my country is very small.

✓ I think it is mainly because not everyone has a driver's license and because my country is very small.

This sentence is grammatically correct. Subject-verb agreement and tense are appropriate. No change needed.

× A lot of the places are in walking distance but easier to go when used with a bike or used to go with a bike.

✓ Many places are within walking distance, but they are easier to reach by bike.

The original is wordy and unidiomatic: 'in walking distance' should be 'within walking distance'. 'Easier to go when used with a bike or used to go with a bike' is repetitive and passive. Use an active, concise form: 'easier to reach by bike.' Suggestion: 'Many places are within walking distance, but they are easier to reach by bike.'

× Oh my gosh.

✓ Oh my gosh.

Interjection is acceptable in spoken language; no grammatical correction needed.
