Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Perbaiki tata bahasa dasar dan susunan kalimat agar jawaban lebih jelas dan natural. Fokus pada: 1) Gunakan bentuk tense yang konsisten (past tense) karena menceritakan masa lalu; 2) Perbaiki subjek dan kepemilikan (his/her/my); 3) Buat satu kalimat topik yang langsung menjawab, lalu satu atau dua kalimat tambahan yang mendukung dengan detail spesifik (mis. usia, siapa yang membelikan, perasaan). Contoh perbaikan struktur: topik sentence (I had a bike...), detail (my mother saved money...), dan efek/feeling (I was surprised/excited).

Example: Yes, I did. I had a bicycle when I was in elementary school. My mother saved up to buy it for me, and she surprised me with it on my birthday, which made me very excited.

Suggestion: Buat jawaban yang lebih lengkap dan gunakan kata penghubung untuk keterpaduan. Jelaskan perbandingan waktu (dulu vs sekarang) dengan alasan spesifik mengapa popularitas berubah (mis. transportasi umum, gaya hidup, keamanan). Gunakan frasa seperti “in the past” dan “now” atau “these days”, serta beri satu atau dua alasan. Hindari pengulangan kata dan perbaiki tata bahasa (contoh: 'they were popular in the past, but they are less so now').

Example: They were more popular in the past, especially among children and students, but these days bicycles are less common because more people use motorbikes and cars and public transport has improved.

× My mom bought me when I was elementary school.

✓ My mom bought me one when I was in elementary school.

The sentence lacks an object for 'bought' and misses the preposition 'in' before 'elementary school'. Add 'one' to indicate 'a bike' and 'in' to show time/place. Suggestion: 'My mom bought me one when I was in elementary school.'

× She's saving his money to buy me a bike and also she make me surprised when I when.

✓ She saved her money to buy me a bike and also she surprised me when I arrived.

Pronouns are incorrect: 'She's' (she is) is wrong tense for past; 'his' should be 'her' to match 'mom'; 'make me surprised' should be 'surprised me' (correct verb form); 'when I when' is incomplete—likely 'when I arrived'. Use past tense consistently: 'She saved her money to buy me a bike and she surprised me when I arrived.'

× Yes, at that era, but but in this era is not.

✓ Yes, in that era, but not in this era.

Word order and auxiliary/missing verb issue. 'At that era' is better as 'in that era'; double 'but' is redundant; 'in this era is not' lacks a verb or subject—rephrase to 'but not in this era.' Maintain correct preposition 'in' and concise structure.
