Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be clear, grammatically correct and concise. Start with a direct topic sentence (e.g. "No, I didn't."), then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Fix tense and subject-verb agreement, and avoid fragments. For example, say why you didn't have a bike (financial reasons, safety concerns, or parents' decision) and add a short consequence or feeling.

Ví dụ: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child. My parents couldn’t afford one at the time, so they didn’t buy me one. As a result, I often walked to school or used public transport instead.

Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion and support it with specific reasons. Use linking words (e.g. "because", "however", "for example") and avoid fillers. Explain what alternatives people use and mention any trends (e.g. cities vs countryside). Keep answers within 2–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: I don't think bikes are very popular in my country because most people prefer cars or public transport for convenience. For example, in cities many commuters use buses and subways, while in rural areas people often rely on motorbikes.

× No, I'm not.

✓ No, I didn't.

The student used 'I'm not' (a contraction of 'I am not') which is present tense and refers to state, but the question asked about possession in the past ('Did you have...'). The correct response requires past tense auxiliary 'did' plus base verb: 'I didn't.' Suggestion: use 'I didn't' or 'No, I didn't have one' to answer past possession questions.

× I don't have a bike when I was a child because my parent.

✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my parents didn't give me one.

This sentence mixes present tense 'I don't have' with past time reference 'when I was a child'. Use past tense throughout: 'I didn't have'. 'My parent' is singular and incomplete; likely 'my parents didn't give me one' or 'my parent didn't give it to me.' Suggestion: keep consistent past tense and supply a complete clause for the giver and the object.

× But not given to me.

✓ They didn't give me one.

This fragment lacks a subject and auxiliary verb. It's unclear who 'not given' refers to. Recast as a full sentence with subject and past auxiliary: 'They didn't give me one' or 'My parents didn't give me a bike.' Suggestion: always include subject and verb to complete the sentence.

× No, I don't think so because many people are growing somewhere.

✓ No, I don't think so because many people are moving elsewhere.

Phrase 'are growing somewhere' is incorrect and unclear. The student likely meant 'moving' (changing residence) or 'growing' is wrong in context. 'Somewhere' is vague; 'elsewhere' fits better. Keep present simple for general opinion: 'I don't think so because many people are moving elsewhere.' Suggestion: choose the correct verb ('moving') and appropriate adverb ('elsewhere').

× Use the card or uh, like, uh, transport the best, you know?

✓ They use cars or other transport, which are more convenient, you know?

This fragment has several issues: 'Use' lacks subject and should be 'They use' when referring to people in general. 'Card' is incorrect word; likely 'car'. 'Transport the best' is ungrammatical—use 'other transport' or 'public transport' and a comparative phrase like 'more convenient.' Suggestion: supply subject, correct vocabulary ('car'), and a clear comparative phrase.
