Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer in the past tense because the question refers to your childhood. Begin with a direct answer, then add specific details about the bike and the occasion. Correct “I do have” to “I had,” “it comes” to “it came,” and say “as a birthday gift” rather than “as a gift on my birthday.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My parents bought it for me as a birthday gift when I was about eight years old. It was pink, and I loved riding it around my neighborhood after school.

Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion first and support it with one or two specific reasons. Use accurate grammar: “Bikes have become more popular,” “because of COVID-19,” “most people have changed their lifestyles,” and “bikes are becoming popular.” Avoid repeating “popular,” fillers such as “uh,” and the unnatural phrase “use by bike.” You could mention cycling for exercise, commuting, or avoiding traffic.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes have become quite popular in Indonesia, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. Many people started cycling for exercise and as a safer outdoor activity. In larger cities, some people also use bikes to avoid traffic and reduce their transportation costs.

× I do have a bike.

✓ I had a bike.

The question asks about a situation in the past, when you were a child. Therefore, use the past-tense verb had instead of the present-tense form do have.

× It was pink and it comes as a gift on my birthday.

✓ It was pink, and it came as a gift on my birthday.

The sentence describes a past event, so the verb come must be changed to its past-tense form came. Keep the verb tense consistent with was.

× Bikes are become more popular right now because of the COVID-19.

✓ Bikes are becoming more popular right now because of COVID-19.

After are in the present progressive tense, use the present participle becoming, not the base form become. Also, COVID-19 is generally used without the definite article the.

× Bikes are become more popular right now because of the COVID-19.

✓ Bikes are becoming more popular right now because of COVID-19.

COVID-19 is normally treated as the name of a disease and does not require the definite article the. Use because of COVID-19.

× So I think in Indonesia, bikes is become something that popular, popular and some people use, uh, by bike these days.

✓ So I think that in Indonesia, bikes have become popular, and some people ride them these days.

The plural subject bikes cannot take the singular form is. Use the plural auxiliary have. The natural verb for using a bicycle is ride, and the pronoun them refers clearly to bikes.

× So I think in Indonesia, bikes is become something that popular, popular and some people use, uh, by bike these days.

✓ So I think that in Indonesia, bikes have become popular, and some people ride them these days.

The phrase something that popular is incomplete because the clause needs the verb is. A clearer sentence structure is bikes have become popular. Avoid repeating popular and remove the filler words to make the answer more direct.
