Donnez au maximum deux ou trois phrases claires. Par exemple, commencez par «No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.» puis expliquez brièvement pourquoi et précisez quand vous avez appris.
Ví dụ: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child. I only learned to ride when I was a teenager because my family couldn't afford one and there weren't many safe places to practice.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 54.0Gợi ý: Rendez votre réponse plus claire et corrigez les erreurs de vocabulaire et de syntaxe. Commencez par une réponse directe («No, I don't think bikes are very popular») puis fournissez une ou deux raisons spécifiques et cohérentes en utilisant des mots appropriés (par exemple «on my small Pacific island», «for learning or recreation», «not for daily transport», «to save costs»). Utilisez des liaisons simples pour relier les idées.
Ví dụ: No, I don't think bicycles are very popular on my small Pacific island. People usually buy bikes for children to learn or for short recreational rides, but most adults prefer motorbikes or cars because public roads are limited and buying a bike is not always seen as a cost-effective transport option.
× When I were a child, I didn't have a bike because I didn't learn when I was child how to ride a bike.
✓ When I was a child, I didn't have a bike because I never learned how to ride one.
This sentence contains incorrect verb form for the past simple 'to be' (were should be was) and awkward phrasing with a missing article and redundant clause. Use 'was' for singular first person in past simple. Replace 'didn't learn when I was child how to ride a bike' with 'never learned how to ride one' for natural, grammatical English. Suggestion: use 'was' with singular subjects and place 'how to' before the verb; use 'one' to avoid repetition.
× I learned how to ride a bike, a bike, sorry, when I was a teenager.
✓ I learned how to ride a bike when I was a teenager.
The original contains repetition ('a bike, a bike, sorry') which is a speech filler, not grammatical, but should be removed for a clean sentence. The tense 'learned' and time phrase 'when I was a teenager' are correct; just remove the repeated fragment.
× I don't think bike is popular in my country because I live in the small island on the Pacific and we use bike to learn how to ride a bike, but we don't use bike every day to reduce for example our consum.
✓ I don't think bikes are popular in my country because I live on a small island in the Pacific, and we use bikes to learn how to ride, but we don't use them every day to reduce, for example, our consumption.
Multiple errors: count noun number (use plural 'bikes' and plural verb 'are'), preposition choice ('on a small island' and 'in the Pacific'), article usage ('a small island' not 'the small island'), pronoun use ('them' to refer to bikes), and word choice ('consumption' instead of 'consum'). Also use plural 'bikes' when referring generally, and 'use bikes to learn' not 'use bike'. Suggestions: make nouns plural for general statements, choose correct prepositions for location, include appropriate articles, and replace nonwords with correct vocabulary.
