Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Not as much as popular in Holland. I live in Turkey and bikes are not the primary vehicles used for transport. People ride bikes for just hobbies, so it's not that popular.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分数: 72.0建议: Soruyu doğrudan yanıtlamış ve bisikletin rengini, tekerlek sayısını ve nasıl alındığını belirtmişsin. Ancak “when I was six years” ifadesi eksik; “when I was six years old” demelisin. “I bought it” yerine baban aldığı için “my dad bought it for me” kullan. Ayrıca “big back bazaar” doğal bir ifade değil; kastettiğin yere göre “a large bazaar” diyebilirsin. Bu ayrıntıları daha akıcı biçimde bağla.
示例: Yes, I did. When I was six years old, my dad bought me a red tricycle at a large bazaar. I loved riding it around our neighbourhood.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分数: 62.0建议: Görüşün ve Türkiye ile Hollanda arasında yaptığın karşılaştırma anlaşılır. Ancak “Not as much as popular” dilbilgisi açısından yanlış; “They’re not as popular as they are in the Netherlands” şeklinde söyleyebilirsin. “Primary vehicles used for transport” ve “for just hobbies” ifadeleri doğal değil; “a common means of transport” ve “mainly for leisure” daha uygun. Cevabını bir neden veya kısa örnekle destekleyebilirsin.
示例: No, bikes aren’t as popular in Turkey as they are in the Netherlands. In many Turkish cities, people mainly use cars or public transport to get around. Cycling is more often seen as a leisure activity than a daily way to commute.
× I bought it when I was six years We went to a big back bazaar with my dad and he bought it for me.
✓ I got it when I was six years old. We went to a big bazaar with my dad, and he bought it for me.
The age expression requires old after years, and a period is needed to separate the two complete sentences. I changed bought to got in the first clause to avoid contradicting the later statement that your dad bought the bike. Use six years old to state your age, and separate complete thoughts with a period or a suitable conjunction.
× Not as much as popular in Holland.
✓ Not as popular as in Holland.
The not as ... as comparative structure takes an adjective directly after the first as. Much is not used before popular in this structure. Say not as popular as to compare the popularity of bikes in Turkey with their popularity in Holland.
× People ride bikes for just hobbies, so it's not that popular.
✓ People ride bikes just as a hobby, so it's not that popular.
For just hobbies is not the natural prepositional expression here. Use as a hobby to describe the purpose for which people ride bikes. The singular a hobby is appropriate when referring to the activity in general.
