10/24

I went to a restaurant for lunch. I was going to ride a bike for the first time in a long time, but as soon as I got on, I felt that my tires were flat. It made a noise and I couldn't pedal well. Somehow I got to the restaurant and had a delicious meal of my favorite rich?soybean?paste?stew. On the way back, I pushed my bike and told my mom that I should ask my dad to put air in the tires later.

Here are the corrections:

1. "I was going to ride a bike for the first time in a long time"

   • Correction: This sentence is okay, but we can make it simpler: "I was going to ride my bike for the first time in a long time."
   • Explanation: Using "my bike" instead of "a bike" makes it clear that it’s your own bike.

2. "but as soon as I got on, I felt that my tires were flat."

   • Correction: This sentence is also fine, but it can be simplified a bit: "but when I got on, I felt that my tires were flat."
   • Explanation: "When" is a simpler word to use than "as soon as," making it easier to understand.

3. "It made a noise and I couldn't pedal well."

   • Correction: Change "It made a noise" to "The bike made a noise."
   • Explanation: Adding "The bike" makes it clearer what made the noise.

4. "Somehow I got to the restaurant and had a delicious meal of my favorite rich?soybean?paste?stew."

   • Correction: Change "rich?soybean?paste?stew" to "rich soybean paste stew."
   • Explanation: Remove the question marks to make it clear that this is a description of the dish, not a question.

5. "On the way back, I pushed my bike and told my mom that I should ask my dad to put air in the tires later."

   • Correction: This sentence is mostly okay, but we can simplify: "On the way back, I pushed my bike and told my mom I would ask my dad to put air in the tires later."
   • Explanation: Using "I would ask" instead of "I should ask" sounds more definite and clear.
