Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Answering directly and adding details about the bike and riding with friends are good ideas, but several phrases are unclear or unnatural. Avoid repeating “red,” and use “races” rather than “ridges.” The final sentence is incomplete and difficult to understand; explain the memory in a complete sentence, such as how you felt when you first rode without training wheels. Keep the response focused and finish with a clear thought.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was bright red and had a lightweight frame, so it was easy to handle. I loved riding it around my neighbourhood and racing my friends. I still remember how excited I felt when I first learned to ride without training wheels.

Sugestão: Your answer is clear, directly addresses the question, and includes relevant reasons and a personal example. Improve accuracy by saying “short trips” instead of “sod trips,” and “more convenient” instead of “most often convenient.” You could also vary “bike” with “bicycle” once to avoid repetition.

Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short trips. Many towns have narrow streets, so cycling is often more practical than driving. For example, I usually ride my bike to the market because it is quicker and cheaper than taking a taxi.

× I still remember how fright I felt to win I learned to ride without training wheels and that memory always

✓ I still remember how frightened I felt when I learned to ride without training wheels, and that memory has always stayed with me.

Fright is a noun, but this sentence needs an adjective to describe how the speaker felt. Use frightened. When is also needed to introduce the event that caused the feeling. The final clause is completed with has always stayed with me.

× I still remember how fright I felt to win I learned to ride without training wheels and that memory always

✓ I still remember how frightened I felt when I learned to ride without training wheels, and that memory has always stayed with me.

The final clause, that memory always, has no main verb and is incomplete. Add a verb phrase, such as has always stayed with me, to express a complete thought.

× Many towns and cities are compact and have narrow streets, so riding a bike is most often convenient than driving a car.

✓ Many towns and cities are compact and have narrow streets, so riding a bike is more convenient than driving a car.

The sentence compares riding a bike with driving a car. Use the comparative form more convenient before than. Most convenient is a superlative form and does not fit this two-way comparison.
