Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the question with a complete sentence and add one specific supporting detail. For example, say when you received the bike, how often you used it, or what you used it for. Avoid stopping after “Yes, I,” because the sentence is grammatically incomplete.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I got my first bike when I was about six, and I used to ride it around my neighborhood with my friends.

Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion at the beginning and support it with a reason and a specific example. Use accurate vocabulary such as “bikes are not a popular means of transport” instead of “basic is not popular transport.” Avoid repetition and unfinished questions, and make sure the example relates directly to your country rather than changing the topic to Holland.

Ví dụ: I don’t think bikes are a very popular means of transport in my country. Most people prefer to drive because it is more convenient for commuting, especially over long distances. However, cycling is becoming more common in large cities because of bike lanes and environmental concerns.

× Yes, I.

✓ Yes, I did.

The answer is incomplete because it does not contain a verb. Since the question uses the past auxiliary did, the answer should also use did: Yes, I did.

× I think now, now in my country basic is not uh, popular transport because how many people uh, use, uh, use car?

✓ I think that bikes are not a popular means of transport in my country now because not many people use them.

Bikes is plural, so it must be followed by are, not is. Also, cars and bikes are countable plural nouns in this context. Try to check whether the subject is singular or plural before choosing the verb and noun forms.

× I think now, now in my country basic is not uh, popular transport because how many people uh, use, uh, use car?

✓ I think that bikes are not a popular means of transport in my country now because not many people use them.

A singular countable noun needs an article. The natural phrase is a popular means of transport, not popular transport. Similarly, use car should be changed to use cars or use a car, depending on the intended meaning. Remember to use a or an with one nonspecific countable noun.

× I think now, now in my country basic is not uh, popular transport because how many people uh, use, uh, use car?

✓ I think that bikes are not a popular means of transport in my country now because not many people use them.

The pronoun them refers back to the plural noun bikes and functions as the object of use. Use object pronouns such as it, them, or us after a verb when referring to the person or thing receiving the action.

× I think now, now in my country basic is not uh, popular transport because how many people uh, use, uh, use car?

✓ I think that bikes are not a popular means of transport in my country now because not many people use them.

How many is used to ask a question about a quantity, but this sentence is intended to give a reason. Use not many people to express a small number of people. Use how many only in a question, such as How many people use bikes?

× I think now, now in my country basic is not uh, popular transport because how many people uh, use, uh, use car?

✓ I think that bikes are not a popular means of transport in my country now because not many people use them.

The repeated now is unnecessary and interrupts the sentence. Now can be placed at the end of the sentence or before the main clause: in my country now or Now, I think that bikes are not popular.

× I think now, now in my country basic is not uh, popular transport because how many people uh, use, uh, use car?

✓ I think that bikes are not a popular means of transport in my country now because not many people use them.

The original sentence contains an incomplete and unclear reason clause: because how many people use car. A complete sentence needs a clear subject, verb, and logical clause structure. A useful pattern is I think that + subject + verb + because + subject + verb.
