Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Use a natural simple past form and a concise structure. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one specific supporting detail using a linking word. Avoid awkward continuous form with stative verb. For example, say whether you ever rode one or why you didn’t have one.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. However, I often borrowed my neighbor’s bike to ride to the park on weekends, so I still learned how to ride early.

Gợi ý: Answer directly, use clearer comparative structures and correct negatives. Give a specific reason or example and use a linking word (e.g., because, although, whereas). Keep it to one topic sentence plus one supporting detail.

Ví dụ: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country because most people prefer cars for long distances. For example, in cities people rely on buses and taxis, so cycling is less common.

× No, I was not having a bike when I was a child.

✓ No, I did not have a bike when I was a child.

The verb 'have' as a stative verb is not normally used in the past continuous 'was having' to describe possession in the past. Use the simple past 'did not have' to state a past fact. Suggestion: use simple past for possession (I had / I did not have).

× I guess no bikes are not too popular by comparing to other country.

✓ I guess bikes are not very popular compared with other countries.

Problems: double negative-like structure 'I guess no bikes are not...' is incorrect; 'by comparing to' is wrong preposition and structure; 'other country' should be plural 'other countries' or 'another country'. Use 'compared with' or 'compared to' and 'very' for natural degree. Suggestion: say 'I guess bikes are not very popular compared with other countries.'
