Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 48.0建議: Answer directly, then add one relevant detail. Use the past tense because you are talking about childhood: say “I had” rather than “I have,” and avoid repeating “when I was a child” and “when I was young.” Use the present perfect only for something that continues to the present.
範例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My sister and I often rode our bikes together after school, especially at weekends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 30.0建議: Give a clear yes-or-no opinion and complete your explanation. “Plays are become” is not grammatical; use “bikes are becoming” or “cycling is becoming.” Also, “local bike” needs a clearer meaning, and the answer ends unfinished. Add a specific reason or example and use a linking phrase such as “because” or “for example.”
範例: Yes, I think bikes are becoming more popular in Hong Kong. This is partly because more people are using cycling paths for exercise and leisure. For example, families often ride together on weekends.
× Yes, I have a bike when I was a child and when I was young I always have had a bike with my sister.
✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, and when I was young, I always had a bike with my sister.
The question asks about a completed period in the past, so use the simple past had rather than have or the present perfect have had. Use the simple past when describing something you owned during childhood.

✓ Hmm, I think bikes have become more common in my country, Hong Kong, and this is because there are more local bikes in my country and many...
Are become is not a correct verb form. To describe a change that has happened over time and remains relevant now, use have become. I interpreted plays as bikes based on the question about bikes; if you meant something else, replace bikes with the intended noun.

The phrase more local refers to multiple bikes, so the plural noun bikes is needed instead of the singular bike. Use a plural noun when referring to more than one item.
