Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Expand your answer into a complete short response: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details (where you rode it, who you rode with, or a memorable moment). Use a linking word if you add another sentence. Keep it natural and concise (no more than 4–5 sentences).

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a red bicycle that I rode around my neighborhood every afternoon with my friends, and we often raced each other to the park. Because I practiced a lot, I became quite confident riding on busy sidewalks.

Gợi ý: Give a direct, grammatical topic sentence and then explain with specific reasons or examples. Use linking words (e.g., "because", "however", "for example") to connect ideas. Correct grammar: say "They are not as popular as they were 20 years ago." Add one or two reasons (traffic, public transport, lifestyle) to support your view.

Ví dụ: I think they are not as popular as they were 20 years ago because many people now prefer cars and public transport. For example, more families own cars and cities have improved bus and metro services, so fewer people choose cycling for daily travel.

× It's not very popular as 20 years ago.

✓ It's not as popular as it was 20 years ago.

The original sentence misuses comparative structure and omits required words. English uses 'not as...as' for comparisons (not as popular as...). Also when comparing to a past time, include a verb for the omitted clause: 'it was 20 years ago.' This provides a clear subject and past-tense verb to match the time reference. Suggestion: use the full comparative form 'not as popular as it was 20 years ago' or the contracted 'not as popular as 20 years ago' only in very informal speech, but the former is grammatically complete.
