× Well, I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family cannot afford one.
✓ Well, I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family could not afford one.
The sentence refers to a past inability to afford something, so the past form of the modal verb should be used. 'Cannot' is present tense; use 'could not' to match the past time frame. Suggestion: use 'could not' or 'couldn't' when describing past ability or possibility. ID:4
× I concentrated on the studies when I was a child, but I I wanted to have a bicycle to ride with my friends.
✓ I concentrated on my studies when I was a child, but I wanted to have a bicycle to ride with my friends.
The phrase 'the studies' is unnatural; use the possessive 'my studies' to indicate what the speaker concentrated on. Also there is a duplicated 'I'. This is not a tense issue but a noun phrase/article/pronoun misuse; primary correction uses proper possessive and removes duplicate word. Suggestion: use 'my studies' and proofread to remove repeated words. ID:22

'Most almost everyone' is redundant; choose one quantifier such as 'almost everyone'. Also subject-verb agreement: 'everyone' is singular so use 'rides' not 'ride'. Parallelism and word choice: use base verbs 'travel, go to work, and exercise' rather than mixing 'travel' and 'traveling'. Remove 'among people' as redundant with 'in my country'. Suggestions: use a single quantifier, ensure subject-verb agreement with 'everyone', and keep verb forms parallel. ID:14}]}}, {
