Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer directly, then describe when you got your first bike and how long you rode it. The phrase “when I was about like 10 years ago” is unclear; say “when I was about six.” Use the past tense “rode” rather than “arrived,” and avoid repeating “like.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a couple of bikes as a child. My dad bought me my first one when I was about six, and I rode bikes regularly until I was around fifteen. I especially enjoyed cycling around my neighborhood.

Gợi ý: Your answer gives relevant reasons, but it repeats the idea that many people use bikes. Say “a high level of economic development” or simply “many people have limited incomes,” and distinguish motorbikes from bicycles. Use linking words such as “because” and “also” without starting several sentences with “And.”

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in Sri Lanka, especially motorbikes and bicycles. Many people choose them because they are more affordable and easier to maintain than cars. They are also convenient for getting around, particularly in busy areas.

× I had a couple of bikes when I was about like 10 years ago

✓ I had a couple of bikes when I was about 10 years old.

The phrase '10 years ago' refers to a time measured back from the present, while the speaker is describing their age as a child. Use '10 years old' to state age. Also, 'about' and 'like' are redundant together here; use one or neither.

× until I was like 15 years of age I arrived cycles

✓ I rode bicycles until I was about 15 years old.

The answer describes a past habit, so use the past-tense verb 'rode.' 'Arrived' does not express riding a bicycle. A natural way to describe the activity is 'rode bicycles.'

× Sri Lanka is not a country with the high level of economy.

✓ Sri Lanka is not a country with a high level of economic development.

Use 'a,' not 'the,' because the speaker is referring to a high level in general, not to a specific level already identified. 'Economic development' is also the natural phrase for the intended meaning.

× So lot of people in Sri Lanka use bicycles

✓ So a lot of people in Sri Lanka use bicycles

'Lot of' needs the determiner 'a' in this expression. Use 'a lot of people' to mean many people.

× because it is easy to travel and easy to maintain

✓ because they are easy to travel on and maintain

The pronoun refers to bicycles, which is plural, so use 'they' rather than 'it.'

× because it is easy to travel and easy to maintain

✓ because they are easy to travel on and maintain

When describing riding a bicycle as a way to travel, use the preposition 'on': 'travel on a bicycle.'

× the prices of the bikes in Sri Lanka are really low when compared with cars and other vehicles

✓ the prices of bikes in Sri Lanka are really low compared with the prices of cars and other vehicles

The original sentence compares bike prices with cars and vehicles. For a grammatically parallel comparison, compare prices with prices.
