Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 82.0建議: You answer the question directly and give a memorable detail about your bike. Improve the final sentence by keeping the verb forms parallel: use “practise tricks or go” rather than “practice tricks or going.” You could also clarify whether visiting your grandparents was another regular reason you rode your bike.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 58.0建議: You give a clear opinion, but the supporting details contain several grammar and word-choice errors. Say “when I left home,” “lots of bikes,” and “every child” (or “all the children”). Give a specific observation and avoid claiming that every child or student owns a bike unless that is accurate.
範例: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. When I leave home, I often see people riding them in the park and along the streets. Many children and students use bikes because they are an affordable and convenient way to get around.
× My bike was sparkly pink and I rode it every day to visit my friends and practice tricks or going to my grandparents' house.
✓ My bike was sparkly pink, and I rode it every day to visit my friends, practice tricks, or go to my grandparents' house.
The verbs in this series should use parallel forms. Because visit and practice are base forms, going should also be changed to the base form go. Keep coordinated verbs in the same grammatical form.
× When I was left my home, I saw lots of bike in our park.
✓ When I left my home, I saw lots of bike in our park.
The sentence describes a completed past action, so use the simple past left. Was left is a passive construction and does not work here because the speaker is the person who left.
× When I was left my home, I saw lots of bike in our park.
✓ When I was left my home, I saw lots of bikes in our park.
Lots of refers to a plural countable noun, so bike must be pluralized as bikes. Remember to use a plural noun after expressions such as lots of.
× Every children or students had a bike.
✓ Every child or student had a bike.
Every is followed by a singular countable noun. Change children to child and students to student. Use the singular form after every, even when referring to people in general.
