Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 58.0Gợi ý: Improve grammar and sentence structure: use past tense consistently (e.g., 'I didn't have a bike when I was younger'). Begin with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words (for example, 'because' or 'so'). Avoid redundancy and keep it within 3–4 sentences. Also correct phrasing such as 'pushed me through' → 'helped me' or 'encouraged me'.
Ví dụ: I didn't have a bike when I was younger, but my cousins taught me how to ride. Because they practiced with me every weekend, I learned quickly. As a result, I still enjoy cycling now.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 52.0Gợi ý: Make the response more coherent and grammatical: start with a topic sentence ('Yes, bikes are very popular in my country.') Then give a specific supporting detail with a linking word (e.g., 'for example' or 'even'). Avoid filler and self-interruption. Use correct plural/singular forms ('in my country', 'people of all ages'). Keep it concise (2–3 sentences).
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. For example, people of all ages cycle regularly — my mother and aunt are in their fifties and sixties but still cycle every week.
× I don't have bike when I was a little younger but I was able to learn how to ride a bike because of my cousins.
✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a little younger, but I was able to learn how to ride a bike because of my cousins.
This sentence mixes present tense 'don't have' with past time 'when I was a little younger'. Use the past simple 'didn't have' for past time. Also include the article 'a' before 'bike' because 'bike' is a singular countable noun. Suggestion: keep verb tense consistent (use past tense for past events) and remember articles with singular countable nouns.
× They pushed me through hard how to learn that and until now I'm enjoying to ride a bike.
✓ They pushed me hard to learn, and until now I'm enjoying riding a bike.
'Pushed me through hard' is unidiomatic; use 'pushed me hard to learn' or 'helped me learn'. 'How to learn that' is unnecessary and awkward. After 'enjoy' use the -ing form: 'enjoying riding a bike' (not 'enjoying to ride a bike'). Also add a comma and conjunction to link clauses. Suggestion: use natural verb collocations (push someone to do something, enjoy doing something) and correct gerund use after 'enjoy'.
× Yes, it's really much more popular in our countries.
✓ Yes, it's much more popular in our country.
'Our countries' conflicts with singular 'it' and is likely incorrect; say 'our country' if referring to one nation. 'Really much more' is redundant; 'much more popular' is sufficient. Ensure subject and noun number agree and remove redundant adverbs. Suggestion: choose singular/plural consistently and streamline modifiers.
× In fact it in all ages and they know how to ride a bike like my aunt, my mom, my how old are they now? Like 50s and 60s and still they are active in bicycling.
✓ In fact, people of all ages know how to ride a bike, like my aunt and my mom. They are about in their 50s and 60s and are still active in bicycling.
Original lacks verbs ('it in all ages' should be 'people of all ages') and has disfluent parenthetical phrase. Replace 'it' with 'people' and add 'know' to complete the clause. Use 'about in their 50s and 60s' or 'in their 50s and 60s' for age ranges and maintain parallel structure: 'They are ... and are still active.' Suggestion: supply the missing subject/verb, avoid spoken fillers, and use correct age expressions ('in their 50s and 60s').
