Part 1

Examiner

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Candidate

Uh, yes I did. My parents bought it to me and my grandma and grandma, Grandpa uh, taught me how to use it. It was pretty good time.

Examiner

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Candidate

I think that this question is quite interesting because in my country bikes are mostly used as a sport view and they are not so popular as a transport from house to house.

Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Сосредоточьтесь на чёткой и связной структуре ответа: начните с прямого утверждения, затем добавьте 1–2 конкретных подробностей. Избегайте повторов и заполнителей (например, "uh"). Уточните слова и порядок (например, "bought it for me", "my grandparents"). Также расширьте описание одним конкретным воспоминанием, используя связующие слова (because, so, and) для логичности.

Example: Yes, I did. My parents bought a small red bike for me when I was six, and my grandparents taught me how to ride it. I remember feeling proud the first time I cycled without help because I had practiced every afternoon in our yard.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Дайте прямой ответ в первой фразе, затем поясните с конкретными причинами и примерами. Улучшите грамматику и лексику: используйте выражения "popular as a means of transport" и "mainly used for sport or recreation". Избегайте словесных оборотов вроде "this question is quite interesting" — это отнимает время и не добавляет информации. Применяйте связки (for example, because, however) для связности.

Example: Not really. In my country bicycles are mainly used for sport and recreation rather than as daily transport. For example, many people ride bikes on weekends for exercise, and most commuters prefer cars or buses because the infrastructure for cycling is limited.

Grammar

Incorrect use of prepositions

× My parents bought it to me and my grandma and grandma, Grandpa uh, taught me how to use it.

My parents bought it for me, and my grandma and grandpa taught me how to use it.

Use 'bought for me' not 'bought to me' because 'buy for' indicates the recipient. Also correct punctuation and word order: 'grandma and grandpa' (not repeating 'grandma') and add a comma before 'and' to separate clauses. Suggestion: use 'bought X for me' when saying someone purchased something as a gift for you.

Sentence structure errors

× It was pretty good time.

It was a pretty good time.

Missing article 'a' before 'pretty good time'. English requires an article with the singular countable noun 'time' in this context. Suggestion: use 'a' for singular countable noun phrases: 'a good time', 'a nice day'.

Present tense issue

× I think that this question is quite interesting because in my country bikes are mostly used as a sport view and they are not so popular as a transport from house to house.

I think this question is quite interesting because in my country bikes are mostly used for sport and they are not very popular for transportation between houses.

Multiple issues: 'used as a sport view' is incorrect phrasing; use 'used for sport' or 'used for sports'. 'Not so popular as a transport' is incorrect preposition and noun choice; use 'not very popular for transportation' or 'as a means of transport'. 'From house to house' is awkward; 'between houses' or 'for getting from one place to another' is clearer. Also 'I think that this question' -> 'I think this question' is more natural. Suggestion: say 'used for sport' and 'not very popular for transportation' to convey intended meaning clearly.
