Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Improve grammar, clarity and coherence. Start with a clear topic sentence in past tense, correct verb forms and pronouns, and keep it concise (max 3–4 sentences). Use linking words for clarity (for example, “so” or “because”) and give a specific detail (how often or why you borrowed it). Avoid redundancy and filler words.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I didn’t own one for long, so I often borrowed my neighbour’s bike and rode it to the park every weekend. Because I loved cycling, I practised regularly until I could ride confidently.

Gợi ý: Make your answer more natural and accurate. Use clear topic sentence and correct vocabulary (e.g., “popular” and “mode of transport”). Explain reasons with coherent linking words (because, therefore, as a result) and give a specific example or comparison. Remove hesitations and incorrect phrases like “mode of communication.”

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities like Manila. Because traffic is heavy and public transport can be crowded, many people use bicycles for short trips or commuting to work. As a result, bike lanes and rental services have become more common in recent years.

× When I was a child I do have a bike and I barely get that to my friend.

✓ When I was a child I had a bike and I rarely lent it to my friend.

The sentence refers to a past time ('When I was a child') so present tense 'do have' and present simple 'get' are incorrect. Use simple past 'had' to match the time frame. Additionally, 'rarely lent it to my friend' uses 'lend' in past tense and 'rarely' is the correct adverb for infrequency. Suggestion: use consistent past tense for actions in the past and choose appropriate adverb (rarely instead of barely).

× One of my friend has a bike so I always go to their house just to borrow her bike.

✓ One of my friends had a bike so I always went to his/her house just to borrow the bike.

'One of my friend' is incorrect: after 'one of' the noun must be plural ('friends'). Also, tense should match the past context ('had', 'went'). Pronoun consistency: 'their' and 'her' conflict; choose one gendered pronoun or use 'their' consistently as a singular they. Suggestion: use 'One of my friends had a bike' and keep pronouns consistent (e.g. 'his/her' or 'their') and match past tense for related verbs.

× Umm, I think bike it's very popular in our country given that umm, our traffic and umm, we're located in Manila and we are decongested.

✓ I think bikes are very popular in our country given our traffic and because we are located in Manila and are congested.

Mixes present continuous and incorrect noun number. 'Bike it's' is ungrammatical; use plural 'bikes' with 'are'. 'We are decongested' is incorrect because 'decongested' means freed from congestion; context implies the opposite (congested). Also 'given that' can be simplified to 'given'. Suggestion: use plural noun for general statements ('bikes are'), correct adjective 'congested', and maintain present tense for general facts.

× So umm, bike it's very popular in our country as a mode of communication aside from the, uh, transportation.

✓ So bikes are very popular in our country as a mode of transport and as an alternative to other forms of transportation.

The phrase 'mode of communication' is incorrect in this context; the intended meaning is 'mode of transport' or 'transportation'. Also 'aside from the, uh, transportation' is awkward; use 'as an alternative to other forms of transportation' or 'in addition to public transportation.' Suggestion: use correct noun 'transport' and clearer prepositional phrase like 'as an alternative to'.
