Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Use the past tense consistently because you are describing your childhood. Say “had” instead of “have,” “was” instead of “is,” and “rode” instead of “ride.” Also, clarify “125 by,” which probably means “a 125cc bike.” Give a direct answer first, followed by one specific detail about the bike or how you used it.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was ten years old. It was a 125cc motorcycle, and I often rode it around my neighborhood. I really enjoyed riding it because it gave me a sense of freedom.

Gợi ý: Answer the question directly and avoid fillers such as “uh” and “umm.” Improve the sentence structure by saying “Many people own bikes” rather than “all the people approximately have bike.” Give two clear reasons, such as small cities and the lower cost of motorcycles, and connect them with linking words like “because” and “in addition.”

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. Many people use them because our cities are relatively small, so they are convenient for short trips. In addition, motorcycles are more affordable and fuel-efficient than cars, which makes them a practical choice for people on a limited budget.

× Yes, I have a bike when I was 10 year old and at that time I have a 125 by I ride that bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was 10 years old, and at that time, I had a 125cc bike. I rode that bike.

The expression 10 years old requires the plural noun years because the number is greater than one. Use the plural form years, not year.

× Yes, I have a bike when I was 10 year old and at that time I have a 125 by I ride that bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was 10 years old, and at that time, I had a 125cc bike. I rode that bike.

The question asks about a past time in childhood, so the verbs should be in the past tense. Use had instead of have and rode instead of ride.

× Yes uh, I think uh umm, the bikes are very popular in our country because of all the people uh, approximately they have bike because uh, our cities are not uh, big.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular in our country because almost everyone has a bike. Our cities are not very big.

Use bikes without the definite article when speaking about bikes in general. The phrase the bikes refers to specific bikes, but the student is discussing bikes generally.

× Yes uh, I think uh umm, the bikes are very popular in our country because of all the people uh, approximately they have bike because uh, our cities are not uh, big.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular in our country because almost everyone has a bike. Our cities are not very big.

Approximately they have bike is not a correct way to express a general quantity. Use a suitable quantifier such as almost everyone, many people, or most people.

× Yes uh, I think uh umm, the bikes are very popular in our country because of all the people uh, approximately they have bike because uh, our cities are not uh, big.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular in our country because almost everyone has a bike. Our cities are not very big.

Everyone is grammatically singular, so it takes the third-person singular verb has, not have. Remember that words such as everyone, somebody, and nobody take singular verbs.

× Yes uh, I think uh umm, the bikes are very popular in our country because of all the people uh, approximately they have bike because uh, our cities are not uh, big.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular in our country because almost everyone has a bike. Our cities are not very big.

A singular countable noun such as bike normally needs an article. Use a bike when referring to one bike in a general statement.

× Yes uh, I think uh umm, the bikes are very popular in our country because of all the people uh, approximately they have bike because uh, our cities are not uh, big.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are very popular in our country because almost everyone has a bike. Our cities are not very big.

Approximately is placed awkwardly in the original sentence. Place a quantity expression before the subject, as in almost everyone has a bike, or use it before a number, as in approximately 80 percent of people.

× So the also the financial problems due to financial problems everybody.

✓ Also, because of financial problems, many people choose bikes.

The original sentence is incomplete and does not have a clear subject, verb, and complement. Build a complete sentence with a subject and a main verb, such as many people choose bikes.
