Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Use the past tense because you are talking about your childhood: “had” or “owned,” not “have.” Also, include the article “a” before “child.” Answer directly and add one specific detail to make your response more complete.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it around my neighborhood and sometimes go to the park with my friends.

Sugestão: Use a complete and grammatically correct sentence, such as “Bikes are really popular in my country.” Avoid pauses like “umm” and the incorrect structure “my country loves bikes.” Explain why they are popular using clear linking words and specific details. Also, say “for transportation” rather than just “transportation.”

Exemplo: Yes, I do. Bikes are quite popular in my country because people use them for transportation and to meet friends. They are especially common among students because they are affordable and convenient.

× Yes, I have a bike when I was child.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The question asks about a past situation, so use the simple past form had instead of the present form have. The phrase when I was also refers to the past.

× Yes, I have a bike when I was child.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The singular countable noun child needs the indefinite article a. The correct phrase is a child.

× Yes I do, because umm, my country is really. Loves bikes for meeting friends and transportation actually.

✓ Yes, I do, because my country really loves bikes for meeting friends and transportation.

The original sentence is incorrectly divided after really, leaving Loves as a sentence fragment. Keep the subject, adverb, and verb together in one complete clause: my country really loves bikes. In speaking, avoid unnecessary fillers such as umm when they interrupt the sentence.
