Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. For a better score, answer directly with a clear topic sentence (yes/no and brief statement), then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words (for example, because or when). Keep it natural and no more than 3–4 sentences.

Example: Yes, I did. I had a small red bike that my parents bought me when I was six, and I rode it every day around our neighborhood. Because my street was quiet, I learned to ride without training wheels within a week.

Suggestion: Again, you repeated the question and made a grammar mistake (“thinks” instead of “think”). To improve, answer directly with a clear opinion, use a linking word to give a specific reason or example, and use correct verb forms. Keep your answer concise and natural (1–3 sentences).

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For instance, in cities there are bike lanes and bike-sharing schemes that thousands of commuters use every day.

The student used the third person singular verb form 'thinks' with the auxiliary 'do'. In questions and negatives that use 'do' as an auxiliary, the main verb must be in its base form (think). Using 'thinks' causes incorrect subject-verb combination. Suggestion: when forming questions with 'do/does', always use the base verb (do you think / does he think). This keeps verb form consistent and grammatically correct.
