Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Answer directly using the past tense, then explain that you relied on training wheels and never learned to ride independently. Use natural phrases such as “ride with training wheels” and “learn how to ride,” and correct the tense in “I never took them off.”

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, but I always rode it with training wheels. I never took them off, so I didn’t learn how to ride a bike on my own. Even now, I can’t ride one confidently.

Sugestão: Give a clear answer and support it with a specific reason or example. Say “access public transport” rather than “access to” in this sentence, and use “more accessible” or “more convenient” instead of “better accessible.” Avoid repeating “public transport” and finish your thought without trailing off.

Exemplo: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country these days. Public transport is usually more convenient, especially in cities where people can take the metro or a taxi. As a result, many people prefer those options for their daily commute.

× I do have a bike when I was a child.

✓ I had a bike when I was a child.

The sentence refers to a completed period in the past, so use the past-tense form had instead of do have. Match the verb tense to the past-time phrase when I was a child.

× I was always cycling using the supporting wheels and I never take it off.

✓ I was always cycling using the supporting wheels, and I never took them off.

The sentence describes past habits, so take should be changed to its past-tense form, took. Use them to refer to the plural supporting wheels.

× So eventually I did not manage how to ride a bike even till now.

✓ So, eventually, I didn't manage to learn how to ride a bike, and I still can't ride one.

Manage is followed by an infinitive with to, not by how to. To express the intended meaning, say manage to learn how to ride. Use still can't ride one to clearly express that the situation continues to the present.

× Bikes aren't that popular in my country nowadays because it's so easy and convenient to access to better choices of public transport.

✓ Bikes aren't that popular in my country nowadays because it's so easy and convenient to access better public transport options.

In this structure, access is a verb and takes a direct object, so do not add the preposition to after it. Say access better public transport options.

× For example, taxis and metro are a better accessible tra- public transport nowadays.

✓ For example, taxis and the metro are more accessible forms of public transport nowadays.

Use the before metro when referring to the metro system. Also, remove the false start tra- so the sentence is complete.

× For example, taxis and metro are a better accessible tra- public transport nowadays.

✓ For example, taxis and the metro are more accessible forms of public transport nowadays.

Better does not correctly modify the adjective accessible in this comparison. Use more accessible, and do not use a before the plural noun forms.
