Điểm: 54.0Gợi ý: Improve grammar (tense and article usage), sentence structure and fluency. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep answers concise (no more than 4–5 sentences) and avoid filler sounds like "umm."
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. My father gave me a bicycle for my tenth birthday, and I used to ride it almost every day. Because I lived near a park, I practiced tricks and rode with my friends, which helped me become confident on two wheels.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 40.0Gợi ý: Correct factual/confusing phrasing and grammar, use linking words, and provide specific reasons or examples. Avoid unclear phrases like "5 kids"; instead state general groups or statistics if known. Keep the answer organized: topic sentence + two specific reasons or an example.
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bicycles are very popular in Korea, especially among young people. This is because many cities have bike paths and parks, and cycling is an affordable way to exercise and commute, so lots of families encourage children to learn to ride.
× Yes I did, when I were a child my father gave me a bike for my birthday gift and it was my one of the hobby.
✓ Yes, I did. When I was a child, my father gave me a bike as a birthday present, and it was one of my hobbies.
Errors: 'were' should be 'was' because the subject 'I' requires the past singular form 'was' (past tense issue). 'for my birthday gift' is unnatural; use 'as a birthday present'. 'my one of the hobby' has word order and article errors: correct is 'one of my hobbies'. Suggestions: use 'was' with singular past-tense subjects, use 'as a birthday present' for gifts, and place 'one of my hobbies' with plural 'hobbies' and the possessive 'my'.
× Umm I really like to a bike.
✓ Umm, I really like bikes.
Errors: 'like to a bike' is ungrammatical. Use a verb + noun structure 'like bikes' or 'like riding a bike'. If expressing preference for the activity, use the present participle: 'I really like riding a bike.' Suggestions: choose 'like' + plural noun for general preferences ('like bikes') or 'like' + present participle for activities ('like riding a bike').
× Yes, I think 5 kids are popular in Korea because I think for young people umm riding bicycle is very famous hobby and umm in Korea there are many park so many.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in Korea because for young people, riding a bicycle is a very popular hobby, and there are many parks in Korea.
Multiple errors: '5 kids are popular' is nonsensical and likely word choice/structure error—should be 'bikes are popular' (sentence structure). 'riding bicycle' needs an article or 'a' and is better as 'riding a bicycle' or 'riding bicycles'. 'very famous hobby' is unnatural; use 'very popular hobby'. 'many park so many' should be 'many parks' or 'so many parks' (plural and word order). Suggestions: ensure subject matches meaning ('bikes' not '5 kids'), use 'riding a bicycle' or 'riding bicycles', use 'popular' rather than 'famous' for hobbies, and make nouns plural when appropriate ('parks').
