Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Answer directly, then add one clear supporting detail. Use the past-tense forms “rode” and “wished,” and say “ride around the neighborhood” rather than “drive around house.” Avoid fillers such as “umm” and “uh,” and make sure the final phrase has a complete grammatical structure.

Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike as a child. I often watched the other kids riding around the neighborhood, and I wished I could join them.

Sugestão: Give a clear answer about popularity and support it with a relevant reason or example. Check word choice: say “bicycles” or “bikes,” “convenient,” and “ride one,” not “icicles,” “confident,” or “write a one.” Combine the fragment “way to get around” with the sentence before it. Avoid presenting cycling as mainly for men unless you can clearly explain that this applies in some communities.

Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities, because they’re an affordable and convenient way to get around. However, concerns about road safety mean that some people prefer other forms of transport.

× I remember watching other kids drive around house and I wishing that join them.

✓ I remember watching other kids drive around the house and wishing I could join them.

The singular countable noun house needs an article in this context. Use the house when referring to a particular house or area. The rest of the sentence is corrected separately below.

× I remember watching other kids drive around house and I wishing that join them.

✓ I remember watching other kids drive around the house and wishing I could join them.

I wishing is not a complete clause, and that join them is missing a subject and an appropriate verb form. Coordinate the two activities after remember as watching ... and wishing ..., and use I could join them to express the wish.

× Yes, icicles are quite popular in my country, especially in cities where they are cheap and confident. Uh, way to get around.

✓ Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in cities where they are cheap and convenient ways to get around.

Confident describes a person or an entity that feels confidence; it does not appropriately describe bicycles in this context. Convenient is the suitable adjective for something that makes travel easy. The revised sentence also connects the idea about getting around to the main clause.

× Uh, way to get around.

✓ They are a convenient way to get around.

This is a sentence fragment because it has no main verb. Add a subject and a verb to make it a complete sentence.

× However, many people still consider cycling mainly for a man because of social norms and safety concerns.

✓ However, many people still consider cycling to be mainly for men because of social norms and safety concerns.

The sentence refers to men in general, so use the plural noun men rather than the singular a man.

× So I wasn't allowed to write a one when I was younger.

✓ So I wasn't allowed to ride one when I was younger.

One can stand alone as a pronoun referring to a bike, so it should not be preceded by the article a. Use ride one to refer to riding a bike.
