Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Answer directly and add one brief, specific reason or result. Use the article “a” before “bike.” A more natural phrase is “when I was a child” or “as a child.” Avoid giving only a short negative answer if you can support it with a relevant detail.

Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it was unsafe for me to ride on the busy roads near our home, so I usually walked or took the bus instead.

Sugestão: Begin with a clear answer and explain the popularity using a specific reason or example. The part about your childhood does not clearly support why bikes are popular, and the repeated phrases and unfinished expression make the answer difficult to follow. Use linking words such as “because” or “for example,” and say “for family reasons” instead of “because of these some of my family reason.”

Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among teenagers and people who commute short distances. They are affordable, convenient, and environmentally friendly. For example, many people use shared bikes to travel around the city.

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

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

The singular countable noun bike needs the indefinite article a because it refers to one unspecified bike. Use a or an before a singular countable noun when mentioning it generally or for the first time.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, but uh, at, at childhood, at in my time of childhood, I didn't have a bike because of these some of my family reason.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, but when I was a child, I didn't have a bike because of some family reasons.

The prepositions at and at in are incorrect in this context. Use when I was a child to describe a period in the past, or say in my childhood. Avoid repeating and combining prepositions such as at in.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, but uh, at, at childhood, at in my time of childhood, I didn't have a bike because of these some of my family reason.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, but when I was a child, I didn't have a bike because of some family reasons.

These some is an incorrect combination of determiners. Use some before a plural noun when referring to an unspecified number or amount. For example, say some family reasons, not these some family reason.

× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, but uh, at, at childhood, at in my time of childhood, I didn't have a bike because of these some of my family reason.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, but when I was a child, I didn't have a bike because of some family reasons.

The noun reason should be plural because the phrase refers to more than one family reason. Use reasons after some: some family reasons.
