Điểm: 60.0Gợi ý: Отвечая, старайтесь давать более развернутый и конкретный ответ: начните с прямого утверждения, затем добавьте подробность или пример. Избегайте обобщений без обоснования и уменьшите разговорные сокращения. Также используйте связующее слово для плавного перехода к пояснению.
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a red bicycle that my parents bought me when I was seven, and I used to ride it to school every day. As a result, I became quite confident cycling in traffic by the time I was ten.

Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: Давайте более развёрнутый и конкретный ответ: дайте причину(ы) и приведите пример или сравнение, используя связующие слова для логики. Избегайте опоры только на круг знакомых; вместо этого упомяните факты или наблюдения из окружающей среды.
Ví dụ: Yes, they are quite popular in my country. For example, many people use bicycles for short commutes and there are several bike lanes in my city, so it's a common and convenient way to travel.
× I think all children have a bike in their childhood.
✓ I think all children have bikes in their childhood.
The noun 'children' is plural, so the noun referring to the thing they possess should also be plural ('bikes') to be consistent. Use plural nouns after plural subjects when talking about general possession. Suggestion: replace 'a bike' with 'bikes' when referring to children in general.
× Yes, I think because all of my friends have bikes.
✓ Yes, I think so, because all of my friends have bikes.
The original sentence is missing a clause connector after 'I think'. In conversational English, 'I think so' or 'I think that' is needed to link the opinion to the reason. Suggestion: add 'so' or 'that' to make the sentence grammatically complete and natural.
