Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer directly and avoid repeating that your mother taught you. Use “a bike” when introducing it, correct “how to to ride” to “how to ride,” and replace the vague phrase “some place” with a specific location. You could also say “learn to ride” rather than “operate a bicycle,” which sounds more natural here.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My mom bought it for me and taught me how to ride it in a quiet park near our home. At first, I was nervous, but I soon learned to ride on my own.

Gợi ý: Your answer addresses the question, but “a bicycle riding on across the road” is grammatically incorrect, and the final sentence repeats “adults.” Use a more natural phrase such as “people riding bikes on the roads,” and add one specific reason or example to support your opinion.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. You can see people of all ages riding them on city streets, especially during rush hour. Many people use bikes because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys.

× I had the bike when I was a child.

✓ I had a bike when I was a child.

Use a before a singular countable noun when mentioning it for the first time. The bike suggests that the listener already knows which specific bike you mean.

× She taught me how to to ride a bicycle.

✓ She taught me how to ride a bicycle.

The infinitive marker to is repeated. Use only one to in the pattern how to + verb.

× We went to some place and then she taught me step by step on how to operate a bicycle.

✓ We went somewhere, and then she taught me step by step how to operate a bicycle.

The preposition on is unnecessary before how to operate. Also, somewhere is the natural adverb for an unspecified place in this sentence.

× Wherever you go, you see a bicycle riding on across the road.

✓ Wherever you go, you see people riding bicycles across the road.

Do not use on before across; across already expresses movement from one side to another. People ride bicycles, so making people the subject also expresses the intended meaning clearly.
