Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Your response is non‑verbal and gives no information. To score higher, give a clear topic sentence answering the question, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it natural and under five sentences. For example, state whether you had a bike, mention when or how you used it, and add a brief reason or memory.

Ejemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used it almost every day to ride to the park and visit my friends, which helped me learn balance and made me feel independent. For instance, I remember racing my neighbor down our street and feeling proud when I could ride without training wheels.

Sugerencia: Your reply is missing. Answer directly and then support your view with specific reasons and a linking word. Mention who uses bikes, for what purposes (commuting, exercise), and any changes you’ve noticed. Stay concise and natural.

Ejemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short journeys and exercise. For example, in cities there are bike lanes and shared-cycle schemes, so students and office workers often cycle to avoid traffic. However, usage is higher in urban areas than in rural regions due to better infrastructure.

× MMM.

✓ Yes, I did./No, I didn't.

The student's reply 'MMM.' is not a grammatically formed sentence and does not answer the question. The examiner asked 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' which is a past simple yes/no question, so the response should be a clear past-tense yes/no sentence such as 'Yes, I did.' or 'No, I didn't.' Use the auxiliary did for past simple questions and short answers. If giving more information, expand: 'Yes, I did. I had a bike when I was eight.'

× MMM.

✓ Yes, they are./Yes, bikes are popular in my country./No, they aren't very popular here.

The reply 'MMM.' is not a grammatical sentence and fails to address the present simple question 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' Provide a present-tense response: a short answer with do/does (They/They aren't), or a full sentence such as 'Yes, bikes are popular in my country.' Ensure subject-verb agreement and use present simple for habitual or general opinions. If giving reasons, add a clause: 'Yes, they are because many people use bikes for commuting.'
