Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your response simply repeated the examiner’s question instead of answering. For improvement: answer directly with a clear topic sentence, then add 1–2 specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it natural and concise (no more than 5 sentences). For example, state whether you had a bike, give when you got it or how often you used it, and mention a brief reason or memorable detail.

Exemplo: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child. I got it when I was seven and rode it to school almost every day, which helped me become more independent. Also, I remember fixing a flat tire with my dad once, so it was a source of fun and learning.

Sugestão: This answer addresses the question directly and gives a reason, but it can be improved by adding one or two specific supporting details and using a linking word to make the response more coherent. Also avoid filler words like “so” at the start. Keep it concise and natural, and include an example or brief comparison to strengthen your point.

Exemplo: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country because most people prefer cars for convenience and comfort. For instance, long commuting distances and scarce bike lanes mean many families choose cars, while only recreational cyclists ride bikes on weekends.

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

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

No grammar error: the sentence correctly uses past tense question form (Did + subject + base verb) and matches the time reference 'when you were a child'. No change needed.

× So I don't think that bikes are popular in my country because people find cars more convenient and flexible in their daily lives rather than bikes.

✓ I don't think bikes are popular in my country because people find cars more convenient and flexible in their daily lives than bikes.

Problem: sentence structure and word choice. 'So' at the start is unnecessary in a direct answer and can be omitted for clarity. Use of 'rather than' after 'in their daily lives' is awkward; a clearer comparative structure is 'more... than...'. Removing 'that' after 'think' is optional; omitting it is more natural in spoken English. Suggestion: start with 'I don't think' and use 'more convenient and flexible... than bikes' for a clearer comparison.
