Yes, bikes are popular in our country, but my mom doesn't allow me to use a bike because I'm a girl and she doesn't allow me. She don't allow me to ride a bike.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 48.0建議: Answer directly using the past tense: say “I didn’t have” rather than “I don’t have.” You could add one brief reason or detail to make your answer more complete.
範例: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents thought it might be unsafe, so I usually walked or took the bus.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 42.0建議: Start with a clear answer about bike popularity, then give one relevant supporting detail. Avoid repeating the same point, and use “she doesn’t” (not “she don’t”). The phrase “because I’m a girl” may sound more natural as “because she thinks cycling is unsafe for girls.”
範例: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students and people who commute short distances. My mother didn’t let me ride one when I was younger because she was worried about my safety.
× I don't have a bike when I was a child.
✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a child.
The question asks about a past time, and the clause 'when I was a child' is in the past. Use the simple past negative 'didn't have' instead of the present-tense 'don't have'. The verb after 'didn't' stays in its base form: 'have'.
× She don't allow me to ride a bike.
✓ She doesn't allow me to ride a bike.
With the third-person singular subject 'she' in the present simple, use 'doesn't' rather than 'don't'. After 'doesn't', use the base form of the verb: 'allow'.
