Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: You repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a direct, natural response (1 topic sentence) and one or two specific supporting details. Use linking words (for example, "Yes, I did. ..." or "No, I didn't. ...") and keep it under five sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was about seven. It was a small red bicycle with training wheels, and my father taught me to ride it in the park. Because I practiced every weekend, I was confident riding it by the time I started school.

Sugestão: Again, you repeated the examiner's question rather than answering. Provide a clear opinion first, then support it with specific reasons and linking words (e.g., "Yes, I think so because..." or "Not really, because..."). Mention concrete examples such as cities, statistics, or cultural reasons to make your answer convincing.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in larger cities. Many people use them to commute short distances because they are cheap and avoid traffic. For instance, bike-sharing schemes are common in my city, and you can see dedicated bike lanes on major roads.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child.

The original student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a sentence structure / pragmatic issue: the response lacks a verb indicating an answer. Provide a short answer fitting the past tense question using auxiliary 'did' and past simple 'have' or a full sentence 'I had a bike' or 'Yes, I did'. Suggestion: answer directly with 'Yes, I did' or 'No, I didn't' or a full past-tense sentence like 'I had a bike when I was a child.'

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.

The student again repeated the examiner's question rather than answering. This is a tense/pragmatic issue: the examiner asked about present-time opinion, so answer with present simple 'I think' and complement 'bikes are popular' or a short 'Yes, they are.' Suggestion: respond directly, e.g. 'Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country' or 'No, I don't think they are popular.'
