Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Make the answer grammatically correct, add a brief topic sentence and a specific supporting detail. Use past tense for past situations, include linking word if you add detail, and keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences).

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle when I was about seven, and I learned to ride it in the park near my house. Because it was my first bike, I used it almost every day to visit friends and run small errands.

Gợi ý: Avoid repeating words and make the statement more natural and informative. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give a specific reason or example using a linking word (e.g., because, since, for example). Keep it concise and relevant.

Ví dụ: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, you often see cyclists in city parks and students riding to school to save time and money.

× Yes, I have.

✓ Yes, I did.

The examiner asked a past-time question ('Did you have a bike when you were a child?'), so the student should use past tense. 'Have' is present tense and does not match the past question. Use the past simple 'did' as a short answer to 'Did you...'. Suggestion: Answer past yes/no questions with past simple forms (e.g., 'Yes, I did' or 'No, I didn't').

× Yes, I think the bikes are popular in my country.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.

When speaking generally about a whole class or category (bicycles in general), do not use the definite article 'the'. 'The bikes' implies a specific set of bikes. Use the plural noun without an article ('bikes') to express generalization. Suggestion: For general statements about categories, use the plural noun without 'the' (e.g., 'Cars are expensive' rather than 'The cars are expensive' unless referring to specific cars).
