Điểm: 20.0Gợi ý: Bạn đã lặp lại câu hỏi của giám khảo thay vì trả lời. Hãy trả lời trực tiếp bằng một câu chủ đề ngắn, sau đó thêm 1–2 câu chi tiết cụ thể (ví dụ: loại xe, tần suất sử dụng, kỷ niệm). Sử dụng liên từ khi cần để nối ý (for example, because, so). Giữ tổng câu không quá 5 câu và dùng từ vựng phù hợp với ngữ cảnh.
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bicycle when I was about eight years old. It was a small red bike with training wheels, and I rode it almost every day after school. I especially remember learning to ride it in the park because my father helped me.

Điểm: 15.0Gợi ý: Bạn đã nhầm từ “bikes” thành “mines” và lặp lại câu hỏi thay vì trả lời. Hãy chú ý nghe và trả lời trực tiếp câu hỏi đúng từ. Bắt đầu bằng một câu chủ đề nêu quan điểm, rồi bổ sung 1–2 câu chi tiết cụ thể (ví dụ: mức độ phổ biến, lý do, so sánh với phương tiện khác). Dùng liên từ để kết nối ý và tránh lan man.
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in smaller towns and among students. Many people use them for short journeys because they are cheap and convenient, although cars and motorbikes are more common in big cities.

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?
No correction needed. The sentence correctly uses the pronoun 'you' to address the listener in past tense; it matches the examiner's question and has proper grammar.
× Do you think mines are popular in your country?
✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
The error is a word choice/pronoun-like confusion: 'mines' is a different noun from 'bikes' and changes the meaning. Replace 'mines' with 'bikes' to match the examiner's question. Suggestion: read or listen carefully to the noun used in the question and repeat the correct word; if unsure, confirm by asking 'Did you mean "bikes"?'. The sentence structure and verb tense are correct (present simple), so only the lexical item needed correction.
