Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small red bicycle with a basket, and I often rode it to the park and to my friend’s house. Because it was easy to ride and reliable, I used it almost every day during the summer.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 58.0Gợi ý: Improve grammar and word choice, give a clearer topic sentence, and provide specific reasons with linking words. Replace unclear phrases (e.g., "easy to write") and avoid redundancy. Keep to 2–4 coherent sentences with varied vocabulary (e.g., "common," "inexpensive").
Ví dụ: Yes, bicycles are very popular in my country because they are inexpensive and practical. For example, many people use them for short commutes and shopping since bikes are easy to park and maintain. Therefore, they remain a common mode of transport in both cities and rural areas.
× Yes, I used to ride a bike when I was a child and while riding that bike it would be really fun to explore the world and travel many places.
✓ Yes, I used to ride a bike when I was a child, and while riding that bike it was really fun to explore the area and travel to many places.
The original sentence mixes tense/modal form 'would be' with a past habitual context introduced by 'used to' and 'when I was a child'. Replace 'would be' with 'was' to match the past tense narrative. Also change 'the world' to 'the area' for naturalness when referring to a child's local exploration, and add 'to' before 'many places' to form a correct infinitive phrase 'travel to many places'. Use a comma before 'and' to join two independent clauses. Suggestion: Keep verbs consistent in past tense when describing past habits (used to/was). Use correct verb patterns for motion verbs ('travel to').
× Yes, for my country it is the most popular right that everybody use and it is affordable for everyone.
✓ Yes, in my country it is the most popular option because everybody uses it and it is affordable for everyone.
Problems: incorrect preposition 'for my country' (should be 'in my country'), awkward phrase 'most popular right' (replace with 'most popular option' or 'very popular'), and subject-verb disagreement 'everybody use' (everybody is singular so verb should be 'uses'). Also add a conjunction 'because' to connect reason. Suggestion: Ensure subject and verb agree (everybody uses), and use 'in' for countries: 'in my country'.
× It can be easy to use and easy to write anywhere you wanted to.
✓ Bikes are easy to use and easy to ride anywhere you want to go.
The original uses 'write' incorrectly instead of 'ride', and mixes modal/past 'wanted' with present general statement. Replace 'write' with 'ride' and use present simple 'want' for general ability. Also change 'It can be' to plural subject 'Bikes are' to match context. Suggestion: Use correct verb for action and match tense to general statements (present simple).
× Go for places and you can take the bag wherever you want to.
✓ You can go to many places by bike, and you can take your bag wherever you want.
Original begins with imperative-like 'Go for places' which is unnatural. Use 'You can go to many places' to express ability. Also change 'take the bag' to 'take your bag' for natural possession. Maintain parallel structure by repeating 'you can'. Suggestion: Use clear subject-verb order and natural prepositions ('go to') and possessive pronouns ('your bag').
