Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be concise, use correct tense and avoid repetition. Start with a clear topic sentence in past tense, then give one or two specific supporting details with linking words. Correct redundant wording ("bicycle or a bicycle") and avoid mixing present tense with past events.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My parents didn’t allow me to ride because they thought the roads were unsafe, so I never learned to cycle. As a result, I only started practicing with a friend in my twenties.

Gợi ý: Provide a clearer, slightly longer response (2–3 sentences) with linking words and specific examples. Fix grammar and redundancy ("they are there are"). Mention reasons or examples to support your claim: who uses bikes, in which areas, or popular types.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. For example, most children use small pedal bikes for play, while adults often ride scooters or commuter bicycles for short trips. Because of heavy traffic in cities, many people prefer bikes for convenience and cost savings.

× No, I don't have a bike.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike.

The examiner asked about the past (when you were a child). The student used present simple 'don't have' instead of past simple 'didn't have'. Use past tense to match the time frame of the question. Suggestion: replace present tense verbs with past tense when referring to past situations.

× When I was a child, actually my parents did not allow me to ride a bike, so I never had a bicycle or a bicycle throughout my life.

✓ When I was a child, my parents actually did not allow me to ride a bike, so I never had a bicycle throughout my childhood.

There are tense and redundancy issues. 'When I was a child' sets past time; 'did not allow' is correct past tense but word order is awkward—move 'actually' after the clause. Saying 'never had a bicycle throughout my life' conflicts with past time and is exaggerated; replace with 'throughout my childhood' to match the referenced period. Also remove duplicate phrase 'or a bicycle'. Suggestion: keep consistent past time references and avoid repetition.

× Almost every kid had a bike and they are there are varieties of bikes.

✓ Almost every kid had a bike, and there are various types of bikes.

The sentence has redundancy and a noun form issue. 'They are there are' is incorrect duplication. Use 'there are' once. 'Varieties of bikes' is acceptable but 'various types of bikes' is more natural. Ensure subject-verb agreement and remove repeated words. Suggestion: eliminate duplication and choose a natural collocation like 'various types'.
