Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be concise and organize your answer: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details. Avoid filler words (uh, umm) and correct simple grammar errors (e.g., 'brother's bike', 'he gave it to me'). Use linking words to make the sequence clear.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It originally belonged to my older brother, but he gave it to me when he bought a new one, and I used it for riding to school and playing with friends.

Gợi ý: Provide a clear topic sentence and then support it with specific observations and linking words. Reduce hesitation and use more precise vocabulary (e.g., 'riding' instead of 'driving'). Mention examples or brief comparisons to strengthen your point.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are fairly popular in my country, but their use varies. For example, children often ride bikes during the summer for fun and short trips, whereas in winter heavy snow makes cycling impractical, so adults prefer public transport or cars.

× Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

Using 'did have' is grammatically acceptable for emphasis but unnecessary in simple past answers. The simple past 'I had' is more natural and concise. Suggestion: use 'I had' for plain statements in past tense.

× Actually it was my brother's bi bike, uh, who was given to me.

✓ Actually it was my brother's bike, which was given to me.

The original sentence misuses 'who' (used for people) and contains a typo 'bi bike'. Use the relative pronoun 'which' for things. Also fix the typo. Suggestion: use 'which' for objects and proofread for typos.

× Me because uh umm, he got a new one.

✓ He gave it to me because he got a new one.

The fragment 'Me because...' is not a full clause and pronoun order is wrong. Use a full sentence with subject 'he' and object 'me' in correct positions. Suggestion: form complete sentences with subject + verb + object.

× MMM yes I guess bikes are popular in my country, but it depends on the season and the generation.

✓ Yes, I guess bikes are popular in my country, but it depends on the season and the generation.

No major tense error, but filler 'MMM' is inappropriate in formal responses. The present simple 'are' is correct. Suggestion: remove fillers and keep present simple for general truths.

× So it's mostly children now who could be seen driving a bike in the summer season.

✓ So mostly children can be seen riding bikes in the summer.

Use 'can be seen' instead of 'could be seen' for general present observations. 'Riding' is the correct verb collocation with 'bike'. 'Bikes' plural matches 'children'. 'Summer season' is redundant; use 'summer'. Suggestion: use 'can' for present ability/observation, 'ride' for bicycles, and match plurality.

× In the winter season, umm when there is a lot of snow, it's not possible to drive bikes.

✓ In winter, when there is a lot of snow, it is not possible to ride bikes.

Use 'ride' rather than 'drive' for bikes. 'In the winter season' is wordy; 'in winter' is natural. Contraction 'it's' fine in speech but 'it is' is clearer. Suggestion: use 'ride' for bicycles and prefer concise time expressions.
