Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Improve grammatical accuracy and natural phrasing, and add one specific supporting detail. Use a clear topic sentence, then one or two linked details. Avoid unnecessary words (e.g., "keen on to" -> "keen on").

Ejemplo: No, I never had a bike as a child because I wasn't keen on outdoor sports. Instead, I was more interested in creative hobbies such as painting and drawing, so riding a bike never appealed to me.

Sugerencia: Make sentences more concise and accurate, add a concrete example or brief reason, and use linking words for coherence. Correct small errors (plural/singular, article use) and avoid vague claims like "it's actually best" without explanation.

Ejemplo: I don't think bikes are very popular in my country nowadays. They used to be common, but most people now prefer cars or public transport because these options are faster and perceived as safer. For example, many young commuters choose buses or cars for their daily trips, so only a small percentage still cycle.

× No, I never had a bike because I was not keen on to outdoor sports.

✓ No, I never had a bike because I was not keen on outdoor sports.

The phrase 'keen on' is followed directly by a noun or gerund without the preposition 'to'. Using 'to' here is incorrect. Remove 'to' or use 'keen to' + base verb (e.g., 'keen to play'). Suggestion: use 'keen on outdoor sports' or 'keen to do outdoor sports' depending on intended meaning.

× I was interested in quite creative activities like painting, drawing, so it never appealed to me.

✓ I was interested in quite creative activities like painting and drawing, so cycling never appealed to me.

The original sentence has an unclear subject for 'so it never appealed to me' and uses 'so' to connect clauses awkwardly. Also 'it' is ambiguous; clarify by referring to 'cycling' or 'bikes'. Use a coordinate conjunction between list items ('painting and drawing') and clearly state the subject: 'cycling never appealed to me.' This fixes sentence structure and clarity.

× I don't think bikes are popular in my country anymore.

✓ I don't think bikes are popular in my country anymore.

This sentence is grammatically correct. Present simple is appropriate for stating a general opinion about the current situation. No correction needed.

× They used to be common but the current generation prefer cars or public transport because they are faster and safer.

✓ They used to be common, but the current generation prefers cars or public transport because they are faster and safer.

The subject 'the current generation' is singular, so the verb should be 'prefers' (third person singular). Add a comma before 'but' to separate clauses. Ensure verb agrees with the singular noun phrase.

× So only 10% of people use bike these days even though it's actually best.

✓ So only 10% of people use bikes these days even though they are actually better.

'Use bike' is incorrect; after 'people' use, the noun should be plural: 'bikes'. Also 'it's actually best' is unclear and mismatches number; refer back to 'bikes' with plural pronoun 'they' and comparative 'better' (or 'the best' if comparing among many options). Use 'they are actually better' to express that bikes are better compared with alternatives.
