Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the question directly by saying whether you owned a bike. Use the past tense because the question refers to your childhood. Also, “I have no bike in the store” is unclear and does not express ownership. Add one brief reason or detail, such as how you travelled instead.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it was unsafe, so I usually walked or took the bus.

Gợi ý: Give your opinion about the popularity of bikes in your country instead of repeating your personal childhood experience. Use the present tense for a general situation, and support your answer with a specific reason or comparison. The correct expression is “my parents didn’t allow me to have a bike,” not “my parents were not allowed for bike.”

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students and young adults. They are affordable and convenient for short journeys, although many people prefer cars because of the heavy traffic and hot weather.

× No, I have no bike in the store.

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

The question asks about a past situation, so use the past form did not have instead of the present form have. Use the indefinite article a before the singular countable noun bike. The correction also answers the examiner's question directly.

× No, I did not have a bike when I was child because my parents were not allowed for bike.

✓ No, I did not have a bike when I was a child because my parents did not allow me to have one.

Use the article a before child because child is a singular countable noun. The phrase were not allowed for bike uses an incorrect passive structure and preposition. Use the active structure did not allow me to have one to clearly express that the parents prevented the speaker from having a bike. The past form did not allow is appropriate because the answer refers to childhood.
