Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is clear and directly addresses the question, but it is very brief and lacks supporting details. To improve, add a short topic sentence followed by one or two specific reasons or a brief example. Use a linking word when adding details (e.g., "because," "so," "however"). Keep it natural and limit to about 2–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child because my family lived in a very hilly area and my parents thought it would be unsafe. As a result, I usually walked to school or took public transport instead.

Gợi ý: Good: you answered directly and added personal opinion. To improve, make the structure clearer by separating general observation and personal experience with a linking word, and provide a specific example or brief comparison. Use a slightly wider range of vocabulary (e.g., "common," "widely used," "prefer"). Keep it concise and natural.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country and are widely used for short commutes and leisure. However, I personally wasn't into cycling because I found it difficult to balance at first and preferred walking or buses instead.

× No, I've never had a bike when I was younger.

✓ No, I never had a bike when I was younger.

The sentence mixes the present perfect ('I've never had') with a past time expression ('when I was younger'), which is incorrect. Use simple past ('I never had') to refer to a completed period in the past. Suggestion: use simple past for specific past time references.

× Yes, they are popular in my country, but I wasn't really into bikes because I thought it was hard to ride bikes and also I didn't enjoy riding them.

✓ Yes, they are popular in my country, but I wasn't really into bikes because I thought they were hard to ride and I didn't enjoy riding them.

There are two issues: repetition and pronoun reference. 'It was hard to ride bikes' uses 'it' incorrectly to refer to 'bikes' (plural), causing a mismatch; also repeating 'bikes' is redundant. Use plural agreement ('they were hard to ride') and remove redundancy. The past tense 'wasn't' and 'thought' correctly indicate past attitudes, so keep past tense forms. Suggestion: ensure pronoun number agrees with its antecedent and avoid unnecessary repetition.
