Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Correct the tense and phrasing, respond directly with a clear topic sentence, and add one brief reason or detail. Use past tense throughout and avoid repetition. Keep it concise (1–3 sentences).

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family couldn’t afford one, so I usually walked or took the bus to school.

Gợi ý: Start with a clear topic sentence, then give specific supporting details and use linking words (for example, because, so, therefore). Avoid absolute statements like “everyone.” Be more precise about who uses bikes and why. Keep answers within 2–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are cheap and convenient. For example, many students and workers cycle to save money and avoid traffic, especially in small towns and cities.

× No, I didn't have a bike when I am a child.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.

The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was a child') so the correct tense for the verb 'to be' is past simple 'was' not present 'am'. Use consistent past tense with 'didn't have'. Replace 'am' with 'was' to match the past context and maintain subject-verb agreement.

× It's a basic need of everyone.

✓ It's a basic need for everyone.

The preposition 'of' is not idiomatic with 'need' in this context. 'Need for everyone' is the correct collocation. This is a preposition/quantifier-type usage: use 'for' when indicating who benefits or requires something. Also consider using 'a basic necessity for everyone' for a more natural phrasing.

× Uh, when we go anywhere, we use it.

✓ Uh, when we go anywhere, we use them.

The pronoun 'it' refers back to 'bikes', which is plural; therefore use the plural pronoun 'them'. This is a pronoun agreement issue: pronouns must match the number of their antecedents. Alternatively, rephrase to 'we use bikes' to avoid ambiguity.
