Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Use the past tense consistently because you are talking about childhood. Also, answer directly with “No, I didn’t” and then add a brief reason or detail to make your response more complete.

Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it was a little dangerous, so I usually walked or took the bus instead.

Sugestão: Your answer is clear and includes a reason, but avoid repeating “bikes” and make the connection between popularity and your personal situation smoother. Use more natural wording such as “I can’t afford one at the moment,” and add a specific detail about why bikes are popular in your country.

Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students and young professionals. I enjoy cycling too, but I can’t afford one at the moment, so I’m saving up to buy a bike next year.

× No, I don't have a bike when I was a child.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.

The question asks about a past situation, and the time expression when I was a child refers to the past. Therefore, use the simple past form did not (didn't) have instead of the present form do not (don't) have. Improvement suggestion: identify past-time expressions such as when I was a child and use the simple past tense consistently.
