Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a clear direct answer (yes/no) with one or two supporting details. Keep it natural, concise (max 5 sentences), and use linking words if you add details (for example: "because", "so", "although").

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was about seven. I used it every day to ride to my friend’s house and to the park, so I became quite confident cycling early on.

Sugestão: Again, you repeated the question instead of answering. Provide a direct opinion and support it with specific reasons or examples. Use linking words (for example: "because", "for example", "however") to make your reply coherent and natural. Keep it within five sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are becoming more popular in my country, mainly because cities are improving bike lanes and people want cheaper, healthier transport. For example, many students and commuters now choose cycling to avoid traffic and reduce costs.

The noun 'bike' is singular but the verb phrase 'are' requires a plural subject. This is a subject-verb agreement issue: use the plural noun 'bikes' with the plural verb 'are'. Suggestion: when using 'are' ensure the noun is plural (bikes) or change verb to 'is' for a singular subject (Do you think a bike is popular...).

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The error arises from using a singular noun 'bike' where a plural noun is appropriate for general statements about popularity. Use the plural form 'bikes' to refer to bicycles in general. Suggestion: for general habits or popularity, use plural nouns (e.g., 'cars are', 'bikes are').
