Candidate

Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 30.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời cần rõ ràng, mạch lạc và ngắn gọn (không quá 5 câu). Hạn chế tiếng ừ/ờ lặp lại và sửa ngữ pháp sai (thì, đại từ, trật tự từ). Nên mở đầu trực tiếp: xác nhận có hay không, rồi đưa một câu bổ sung cụ thể (ví dụ tuổi khi có xe, ai tặng, mô tả ngắn xe và hoạt động bạn làm với xe). Sử dụng liên từ đơn giản để nối ý (e.g., then, so, later). Ví dụ chỉnh sửa cụ thể: nêu tuổi là "at the age of three", nói "my father bought me a second-hand bike" thay vì câu lủng củng. Giữ tối đa 3–4 câu và đảm bảo ngữ pháp đúng.
Example: Yes, I did. My father bought me a second-hand bike when I was about three, and I learned to ride it around our neighborhood. Later, as I grew taller, I started riding farther to visit friends and go to the park.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời nên bắt đầu bằng câu chủ đề rõ ràng (Yes/No + lý do ngắn gọn). Tránh nói lắp và lỗi cấu trúc như "the firm as the development of the society"; thay bằng cụm đúng như "with economic development". Cần cung cấp chi tiết cụ thể (ví dụ: thời điểm, ai dùng, lý do chuyển sang phương tiện khác) và dùng liên từ để nối ý (however, now, because). Giữ trong 2–4 câu, dùng từ vựng phù hợp (commute, motorbike, economy, urbanization).
Example: Yes, bikes used to be very popular in Vietnam about 20 years ago because many people relied on them for daily commuting. However, with economic development and urbanization, more people now prefer motorbikes and cars for speed and convenience.
× Yes, of course, uh, to be honest, when I was, uh, sure, I at the edge of three, my father brought to me with a far worse market bicycle.
✓ Yes, of course. To be honest, when I was about three, my father bought me a second-hand bicycle from the market.
The original sentence has multiple structure problems: incorrect word order, wrong verb choice (brought to me -> bought me), inappropriate phrase 'at the edge of three' (use 'about three'), and awkward modifier 'far worse market' (use 'second-hand from the market'). Correct the sentence by ordering subject, verb, object properly and using appropriate vocabulary and collocations. Suggestion: Practice forming simple past statements with subject + past verb + object (e.g., 'my father bought me a bicycle'). Use 'about' for approximate ages and 'second-hand' for used items.
× She practiced, uh, from issue practice, uh, writing around the, around the streets.
✓ I practiced riding around the streets.
The speaker incorrectly uses 'she' instead of 'I' and awkward phrases like 'from issue practice' and 'writing' instead of 'riding'. 'Riding' is the correct present participle of 'ride' to describe the action. Also, subject must agree with previous sentence context ('I practiced'). Suggestion: Use the present participle 'riding' after verbs like 'practice' when describing an ongoing activity (practice + -ing). Keep subject consistent.
× And then when I was, I'm taller, when I was taller and when I was.
✓ And then, when I was taller, I could ride more confidently.
The original fragment is incomplete and ungrammatical. It repeats phrases and lacks a main verb or clear idea. Construct a complete sentence with a time clause 'when I was taller' followed by a main clause explaining the consequence ('I could ride more confidently'). Suggestion: Avoid repeating fragments; ensure each sentence has a subject and a verb and expresses a complete thought.
× Well, of course in Vietnam in the past, about 20 years ago, it's very, it was very popular in our country.
✓ Well, of course, in Vietnam in the past, about 20 years ago, it was very popular in our country.
The sentence mixes present tense 'it's' with past time reference 'about 20 years ago'. Use past tense 'it was' to match the time expression. Also remove redundant words and fix word order. Suggestion: Match verb tense to time expressions: use past tense for actions or states referring to the past.
× Everybody used them to commute to anywhere.
✓ Everybody used them to commute anywhere.
The phrase 'to commute to anywhere' is unidiomatic. 'Commute anywhere' or 'commute to work/school' is better. The verb form 'used' is correct past tense here; only prepositional usage needs fixing. Suggestion: Use natural collocations: 'commute to work/school' or simply 'commute anywhere'.
× But now the firm as the development of the society or everybody uses is using, so is using cars, motorbikes or everything.
✓ But now, with social development and economic growth, people mostly use cars and motorbikes instead.
The original sentence is ungrammatical and confusing: 'the firm as the development of the society' is incorrect, unnecessary repetition 'uses is using, so is using' is present continuous misused, and 'or everything' is vague. Replace with a clear phrase 'with social development' and a concise main clause in present simple 'people mostly use'. Suggestion: Use clear nouns for abstract ideas ('social development', 'economic growth') and choose a consistent tense (present simple for general truths).
