Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Cevabınız doğrudan ve anlaşılır; ancak “I hadn't a bike” yerine sahiplik belirtmek için “I didn't have a bike” kullanılmalıdır. Ayrıca bisiklet sürmek için “drive” değil, “ride” fiili daha doğaldır. İkinci cümlede korkunuzun nedenini veya çocukken ne yaptığınızı ekleyerek cevabı biraz daha ayrıntılı ve etkili hâle getirebilirsiniz.

Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child because I was afraid of falling off. Instead, I usually played football with my friends in the park.

Sugestão: “It depends on the area” iyi bir başlangıçtır; ancak “the tubes” ifadesi bu bağlamda doğal değildir. Muhtemelen “the metro” veya “public transport” demek istediniz. “Driving car” yerine “driving a car” ya da daha doğal olarak “using cars” kullanılmalıdır. İstanbul’daki durumla ilgili belirli bir neden veya karşılaştırma ekleyin; örneğin yoğun trafik, bisiklet yollarının azlığı ya da sahil bölgelerindeki bisiklet kullanımı.

Exemplo: It depends on the area. In Istanbul, many people prefer using the metro or driving a car because the traffic is heavy and there aren’t enough bike lanes. However, bikes are quite popular in coastal areas and parks.

The question uses the simple past tense, Did you have...? Therefore, the answer should also use the simple past: didn't have. Hadn't is the past perfect form and is not appropriate here because there is no earlier past event being compared. Use did not or didn't + the base form of the verb for negative statements in the simple past.

× It depends on the area, but in my city Istanbul, people usually prefer the tubes or driving car.

✓ It depends on the area, but in my city, Istanbul, people usually prefer the tubes or driving a car.

The singular countable noun car requires an article. Use a before car because the speaker is referring to a non-specific car. The correct phrase is driving a car, not driving car. Remember to use a or an before singular countable nouns when they are mentioned generally or for the first time.
