Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Candidate
When I was a child, my father purchased me a new buy. It was a bit big for me at first, but he taught me how to ride in the park and I quickly learned to balance and enjoy cycling.
Examiner
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Candidate
In my opinion, bicycles are very popular in my country. People of own age bribe them for exercise and leisure and many use bicycles for short shift in parts or busy urban area because cycling is often faster and cheaper than driving.

Score: 72.0Suggestion: Chú ý phát âm và từ vựng chính xác (ví dụ "buy" là sai; phải là "bike" hoặc "bicycle"). Cố gắng dùng câu chủ đề rõ ràng, theo sau bởi 1–2 câu bổ sung liên kết logic.

Example: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My father bought me a small bicycle when I was six, and at first it was a bit too big for me. He taught me to ride in the park every weekend, so I soon learned to balance and became confident. I remember practicing until I could ride without help.

Score: 58.0Suggestion: Chú ý ngữ pháp, chọn từ đúng và tránh lỗi gõ: sửa các cụm sai như "people of own age" và "bribe them"; dùng từ phù hợp như "people of all ages" và "ride them". Cấu trúc câu nên mạch lạc: nêu ý chính, sau đó giải thích với 1–2 lý do cụ thể và sử dụng liên từ (for example, because, so). Thêm ví dụ cụ thể (ví dụ: khu vực đô thị, công viên, khoảng cách ngắn) để tăng đặc thù nội dung.
Example: Yes, I think bicycles are very popular in my country. People of all ages often ride them for exercise and leisure, and many commuters use bikes for short trips in cities because cycling is usually faster and cheaper than driving. For example, many people cycle to nearby shops or to work within a few kilometers.
× When I was a child, my father purchased me a new buy.
✓ When I was a child, my father bought me a new bike.
The verb 'purchased' is grammatically okay but 'bought' sounds more natural in spoken English; more importantly, 'buy' is the wrong word form and should be 'bike' for the intended object. Replace 'purchased me a new buy' with 'bought me a new bike' to correct the noun and use natural phrasing. Suggestion: use common past simple 'bought' for completed action in the past and the correct noun 'bike'.
× ...but he taught me how to ride in the park and I quickly learned to balance and enjoy cycling.
✓ ...but he taught me how to ride in the park, and I quickly learned to balance and to enjoy cycling.
The original sentence is mostly acceptable, but for parallel structure after 'learned' it's clearer to use either 'learned to balance and to enjoy' or 'learned how to balance and how to enjoy.' Adding a comma before 'and' improves clarity. Suggestion: maintain parallel infinitive forms for readability.
× People of own age bribe them for exercise and leisure and many use bicycles for short shift in parts or busy urban area because cycling is often faster and cheaper than driving.
✓ People of all ages ride them for exercise and leisure, and many use bicycles for short trips in parks or busy urban areas because cycling is often faster and cheaper than driving.
Multiple errors: 'of own age' is incorrect; use 'of all ages' to express a wide range. 'Bribe' is the wrong verb; 'ride' (or 'use') is appropriate. 'Short shift' should be 'short trips'. 'Parts' should be 'parks'. 'Busy urban area' needs plural 'areas'. Also add a comma before 'and' for clarity. Suggestion: choose correct verbs and nouns, fix plural forms, and use common collocations ('ride a bike', 'short trips', 'urban areas').
