Candidato

Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 58.0Sugestão: Answer directly and use the past tense consistently: say “I had a bike,” not “I have a buy.” Avoid fillers such as “Umm” and “about,” and combine the ideas into two or three complete sentences. Add one specific detail about how you used the bike, such as where you rode it or who gave it to you.
Exemplo: Yes, I did. I had a white bike when I was a child, and I often rode it around my neighborhood after school. It had two wheels and was quite easy to ride.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 32.0Sugestão: State your opinion clearly and use the correct plural noun: “Bikes aren’t very popular.” Explain the reason logically—for example, people may live far from their workplaces, or public transport may be more convenient. Avoid unclear phrases such as “a bike is far from the house” and reduce fillers like “uh.”
Exemplo: No, I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country. Many people live far from their workplaces, so they usually prefer to drive or take public transportation. In addition, the busy roads can make cycling inconvenient and unsafe.
× Yes I did, I have a buy when I was a child.
✓ Yes, I did. I had a bike when I was a child.
The phrase when I was a child refers to a completed period in the past, so the past-tense form had is required instead of have. Bike is also the correct noun for the intended meaning.
× Umm about.
✓ Umm, I had one.
Umm about is not a complete sentence because it does not contain a verb or express a complete idea. Use a complete clause such as I had one, or omit the fragment.
× From my perspective, I buy is not popular in our country because, uh, they are quite far from, uh, the house and the, uh, place that he worked out there were.
✓ From my perspective, bikes are not popular in our country because they are not convenient when workplaces are far from people's homes.
When speaking about bikes in general, use the plural noun bikes and the plural verb are. The plural pronoun they must refer to a plural noun, such as bikes. Avoid changing from a singular noun to a plural pronoun without a clear reason.
× From my perspective, I buy is not popular in our country because, uh, they are quite far from, uh, the house and the, uh, place that he worked out there were.
✓ From my perspective, bikes are not popular in our country because they are not convenient when workplaces are far from people's homes.
The pronoun they should have a clear plural antecedent. In the original sentence, it does not clearly refer to I buy, and he is also inconsistent with the general meaning. Use they for people or things discussed generally, and use people's to show possession.
× From my perspective, I buy is not popular in our country because, uh, they are quite far from, uh, the house and the, uh, place that he worked out there were.
✓ From my perspective, bikes are not popular in our country because workplaces are often far from people's homes.
The original sentence contains several incomplete and incorrectly connected parts, including the ending place that he worked out there were. Organize the sentence into a clear subject, verb, and reason. A concise structure with because makes the relationship between the opinion and its reason clear.
