Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is direct and well developed, with a clear personal detail and a connection to your present life. However, say “a birthday present from my parents” rather than “the present from my parents to my birthday.” Also, “ride my bike” sounds more natural than “bike” in this context. Use a linking word such as “As a result” or “In fact” to make the final idea flow more smoothly.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. It was a birthday present from my parents, and I loved it. I used to ride it every day during the summer, especially around my neighborhood. In fact, I still enjoy cycling today.

Gợi ý: You give a relevant opinion and attempt to compare your country with Denmark and Sweden, but the answer contains several grammar and fluency problems. Avoid the run-on structure by separating your ideas into shorter sentences. Use “compared with” or “compared to,” “cyclists” instead of “bikers,” “not as many as I would like,” and “designated bike lanes” instead of “bike roads.” Also, “this is nothing” is unclear; explain that cycling is less common in your country. Add one specific reason, such as traffic, weather, or a lack of cycling infrastructure.

Ví dụ: To be honest, bikes are not particularly popular in my country compared with Denmark or Sweden. We do have some cyclists, but not as many as I would like. Cycling is less common partly because of heavy traffic and limited bike lanes. However, some cities have recently built designated cycling paths, so I think it may become more popular in the future.

× It was the present from my parents to my birthday and I loved it.

✓ It was a present from my parents for my birthday, and I loved it.

Use the indefinite article a because present is a singular countable noun mentioned for the first time. The phrase for my birthday is the correct prepositional expression for describing the occasion of a gift.

× It was the present from my parents to my birthday and I loved it.

✓ It was a present from my parents for my birthday, and I loved it.

The preposition to is incorrect in this context. Use for to show the purpose or occasion of the present: a present for my birthday.

× To be honest, I do not think so compared to Denmark or Sweden, this is nothing however we do have some bikers maybe not as much as I would like to, but plenty of and there are specially designated bike roads for them.

✓ To be honest, I do not think so. Compared with Denmark or Sweden, bike use in my country is limited. However, we do have some bikers, perhaps not as many as I would like, and there are specially designated bike roads for them.

The original sentence contains several clauses joined without proper punctuation or conjunctions, which makes the structure difficult to follow. Divide the ideas into separate sentences and connect the remaining clauses with and. Also, plenty of is incomplete because it must be followed by a noun or noun phrase.

× To be honest, I do not think so compared to Denmark or Sweden, this is nothing however we do have some bikers maybe not as much as I would like to, but plenty of and there are specially designated bike roads for them.

✓ To be honest, I do not think so. Compared with Denmark or Sweden, bike use in my country is limited. However, we do have some bikers, perhaps not as many as I would like, and there are specially designated bike roads for them.

Bikers is a plural countable noun, so use many rather than much. The correct comparison is not as many as I would like. Much is used with uncountable nouns, such as traffic or cycling.

× To be honest, I do not think so compared to Denmark or Sweden, this is nothing however we do have some bikers maybe not as much as I would like to, but plenty of and there are specially designated bike roads for them.

✓ To be honest, I do not think so. Compared with Denmark or Sweden, bike use in my country is limited. However, we do have some bikers, perhaps not as many as I would like, and there are specially designated bike roads for them.

Compared with is the more appropriate form when directly comparing two situations or countries. Compared to is also used in English, but compared with is generally preferred for this type of comparison.
