Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 80.0Sugestão: Answer directly and avoid repeating the same reason with two uses of “because.” Use a more natural structure such as “My parents didn’t allow me to ride one because they were concerned about my safety.” The answer is relevant and clear, but it could be slightly more concise.
Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents didn’t allow me to ride one because they were concerned about my safety.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 50.0Sugestão: Give a clear topic sentence first, then add one or two specific reasons. Avoid repeating “because” and “ride a bike,” and use accurate expressions: people may use bikes as an alternative to public transport, but a bike is not itself public transport. Also, use “find” rather than “found” for a general opinion, and say “an easy way to travel” instead of “an easy way of driving.”
Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. Many people use them as an alternative to public transport because they are affordable and convenient. They are also a good way to avoid traffic and stay healthy.

✓ Yes, definitely, bikes are popular in my country because many people find them interesting and enjoy riding them. Bikes are also an easy way to travel, and some people use them instead of public transport.
The verb found is in the past tense, but the student is describing a general opinion and a current situation. The present-tense verb find is needed. Use the present tense for facts, habits, and opinions that are still true now.

Also, avoid repeating because several times in the same sentence.
