Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Your answer is correct but too brief. Give a direct topic sentence then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words (e.g., because, so, however). Keep it natural and under five sentences. Mention a short reason why you didn't have one or an alternative childhood memory to enrich the response.
Exemplo: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family couldn't afford one at the time. Instead, I usually walked to school or used public transport, so I didn't learn to ride until I was a teenager.
