Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Give a fuller, more natural response: start with a direct answer, then add one brief supporting detail (reason, memory or contrast). Keep it concise (no more than 3–4 sentences) and use linking words like “but” or “however” if adding contrast.

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family lived in a small apartment and we mainly walked or took buses, so there wasn’t space to store one. However, I remember borrowing bikes from friends at weekends and enjoying short rides in the park.

Suggestion: Make the answer more natural and slightly more specific: begin with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two supporting reasons using linking words (for example, “because” and “therefore”), and include a brief example or contrast. Avoid minor grammar errors and redundant words.

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because cars are very expensive and many people cannot afford them. As a result, bicycles are a cheap and convenient way to commute, especially in crowded cities; for example, I see many vendors and students cycling to work or school every day.

× Yes, I do think that bikes are popular in my country because cars are really expensive in my region, so people mostly like to travel in on bikes.

✓ Yes, I do think that bikes are popular in my country because cars are really expensive in my region, so people mostly like to travel by bike.

The phrase 'travel in on bikes' is incorrect. Use the preposition 'by' with the mode of transport (by bike) or use 'on' with the vehicle itself (on a bike). Also use the singular 'bike' after 'by' when referring to the mode generally. Suggestion: say 'travel by bike' or 'travel on bikes' depending on emphasis. This corrects preposition use and makes the sentence natural.
