Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the question directly, then add a concise description and explain why the bike was memorable. Use correct punctuation to separate the ideas, and say “a present from my father” rather than “a present for my father.” “On my fifth birthday” is more natural than “on the occasion of my fifth birthday.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was yellow with red tyres, and my father gave it to me for my fifth birthday. I was very excited because it was my first bike, and I used to ride it around my neighbourhood.

Gợi ý: Give a clear answer at the beginning and avoid repeating “now.” Use linking words and accurate, natural phrases such as “public transport” and “people tend to use.” Add a specific reason or comparison to develop the answer, and separate the ideas with punctuation.

Ví dụ: No, I don’t think bikes are particularly popular in my country nowadays. Most people prefer to use their own cars or public transport because these options are more convenient for travelling long distances. However, bicycles are still common among children and people who enjoy exercising.

× It was a yellow coloured bike with red tyres it was a present for my father on the occasion of my fifth birthday.

✓ It was a yellow-coloured bike with red tyres. It was a present from my father on the occasion of my fifth birthday.

The original sentence is a run-on sentence because two independent clauses are joined without appropriate punctuation or a conjunction. Separate them with a full stop. Also, the phrase present from my father is grammatically appropriate when your father gave you the present.

× It was a yellow coloured bike with red tyres it was a present for my father on the occasion of my fifth birthday.

✓ It was a yellow-coloured bike with red tyres. It was a present from my father on the occasion of my fifth birthday.

The preposition for suggests that the bike was intended for your father. The preposition from correctly shows that your father gave the bike to you.

× Now I don't think so bikes are now really that common in my country people now tend to use their own vehicles or public mode of transport rather than relying on bikes solely.

✓ Nowadays, I don't think bikes are really that common in my country. People tend to use their own vehicles or public modes of transport rather than relying solely on bikes.

The original response contains several independent clauses joined without proper punctuation, creating a run-on sentence. Separate the ideas into two sentences. In the first clause, place bikes directly after think to form the structure I don't think bikes are common.

× Now I don't think so bikes are now really that common in my country people now tend to use their own vehicles or public mode of transport rather than relying on bikes solely.

✓ Nowadays, I don't think bikes are really that common in my country. People tend to use their own vehicles or public modes of transport rather than relying solely on bikes.

The adverb solely is more naturally placed before the phrase it modifies: relying solely on bikes. This position makes the meaning clearer and sounds more natural in English.
