Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Answer directly using the past tense: say “I didn’t have” rather than “I don’t have.” You could add a brief detail, such as how you travelled or whether you wanted a bike.
Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I usually walked to school, although I sometimes wished I had one to ride with my friends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 40.0Sugestão: Give a clear direct answer, then explain the reason in one coherent sentence. Use “ride bikes” (not “ride on to ride them”) and say “keep the planet clean” or “reduce pollution.” Add a specific detail if you can.
Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in Russia, especially in parks and during the warmer months. Many people ride them for exercise and to reduce air pollution.
× I don't have a bike when I was a child.
✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a child.
The question asks about a past period, and 'when I was a child' confirms that the sentence refers to the past. Use the simple past negative 'didn't have' instead of the present-tense form 'don't have.'
× I think bikes are popular in Russia because a lot of people prefer to ride on to ride them to keep our planet. Cleaner.
✓ I think bikes are popular in Russia because a lot of people prefer to ride them to keep our planet cleaner.
The phrase 'to ride on to ride them' contains an unnecessary repetition that disrupts the sentence structure. Also, 'Cleaner' is a sentence fragment; connect it to the preceding clause as 'cleaner' to complete the meaning. Use 'ride them' to refer directly to bikes.
