Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be direct, use correct tense, and add one or two specific supporting details. Start with a clear topic sentence in the past tense, then briefly expand (where you got it, how you used it, or a memory). Keep answers natural and under five sentences. Use linking words (for example, because, so, when) if you add details.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle that my parents gave me when I was six, and I used to ride it to the park every afternoon. Because the roads near our house were quiet, I learned to ride without training wheels within a week.

Gợi ý: Answer directly, use correct grammar and avoid vague or global statements. Provide a specific reason or example to support your opinion and use a linking word to connect your points. Keep it concise (1–3 sentences) and natural-sounding.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are very popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For instance, cities have dedicated bike lanes and you often see commuters cycling to work during rush hour.

× Yes, I do.

✓ Yes, I did.

The examiner asked a past-tense question ('Did you have a bike when you were a child?'), so the response should also use past tense. Using 'do' (present tense) is inconsistent. Change 'do' to 'did' to match the past tense of the question. Suggestion: When answering questions in the past, use past-tense auxiliaries (did) or past-tense verbs (had).

× Yes, it is. I think, uh, it's quite popular in every country.

✓ Yes, they are. I think, uh, bikes are quite popular in this country.

The student used 'it' to refer to 'bikes', which is plural, so the correct pronoun is 'they' and the verb should be plural ('are'). Additionally, saying 'in every country' is overly general and doesn't answer the question about 'your country'; use 'this country' or 'my country' to be specific and consistent with the question. Suggestion: Match pronouns and verbs to the noun number (singular/plural), and keep the referent consistent with the question (use 'this country' or 'my country').
