Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Give a past-tense, slightly longer natural answer with a topic sentence and one or two specific supporting details. Use past tense (I had), avoid one-word replies, and keep to under five sentences. Link supporting detail with a word like "because" or "and".

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it to school and around my neighborhood almost every day because it was faster than walking and my parents thought it was good exercise.

Gợi ý: Answer with a full sentence, use plural agreement ("they are" or "bikes are"), and give one specific reason or example. Use a linking phrase such as "because" or "for example" to support your opinion and keep it concise.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise; for example, you can see lots of cyclists in parks and near universities during weekends.

× Yes, I do.

✓ Yes, I did.

The examiner's question 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' is in the past simple. The student's response should also be in the past simple. Using 'do' is present tense and mismatches the time frame. Replace 'do' with the past form 'did' to match the past tense. Suggestion: When answering past simple questions, use past tense verbs (e.g., 'Yes, I did' or 'Yes, I had a bike').

× Yes, it is.

✓ Yes, they are.

The examiner asked 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' The subject 'bikes' is plural. The student's reply 'it is' uses a singular pronoun and singular verb, which does not agree with the plural noun. Use the plural pronoun 'they' and plural verb 'are' to agree with 'bikes'. Suggestion: Match pronoun number to the noun (plural noun -> 'they are' or answer more fully: 'Yes, bikes are popular').
