Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Improve grammatical accuracy, tense consistency and conciseness. Begin with a clear topic sentence in the past tense, avoid hesitation sounds, and use one or two supporting details. Also correct repetition and article use (e.g., “a bike” not “bike”).
Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because in my country people under 18 are not allowed to ride motorcycles. As a result, most teenagers rely on their parents for transport or use public buses.

Exemplo: Yes, bicycles are very popular in my country because they are cheaper and more convenient for short trips. Therefore many people choose cycling instead of taking crowded buses, especially in busy city areas.
× No, I don't have bike when I was a young because in my country umm below 18 years we are not supposed to ride a bike, so we don't have so I don't have bike.
✓ No, I didn't have a bike when I was young because in my country people under 18 are not supposed to ride a bike, so I didn't have one.
The sentence mixes present tense 'don't have' with past context 'when I was young'; use past tense 'didn't have'. Missing article before 'bike' requires 'a bike'. 'When I was a young' is incorrect—use 'when I was young'. 'Below 18 years' is awkward; use 'people under 18'. Repeated 'we don't have so I don't have bike' was redundant and inconsistent in tense; simplify to 'so I didn't have one'. Suggestions: keep consistent past tense, use articles, and avoid repetition.
× Umm, this days riding a bicycle is umm, widely used in my country as it is a more convenient, uh, to ride a bicycles, uh, rather than taking a public, uh, vehicles.
✓ These days, riding a bicycle is widely used in my country because it is more convenient to ride a bicycle than to take public vehicles.
Use 'these days' (plural) rather than 'this days'. 'Riding a bicycle is widely used' is awkward; better 'riding a bicycle is common' or keep 'is widely used'. 'A more convenient' needs a noun or infinitive—use 'more convenient to ride a bicycle'. 'A bicycles' mixes article and plural; use singular consistently. 'Taking a public vehicles' mixes singular/plural and article; use 'take public vehicles'. Suggestions: use correct time expression, match singular/plural and articles, and prefer clearer collocations like 'more convenient to...'.
× So, uh, bicycles is uh, widely used, uh, in the context of my country.
✓ So, bicycles are widely used in my country.
The plural noun 'bicycles' requires the plural verb 'are', not 'is'. 'In the context of my country' is wordy; 'in my country' is natural. Suggestions: ensure subject and verb agree in number and simplify wordy phrases.
