Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Candidate
Yeah, we have lots of places to ride bikes around the city, but sometimes it can be dangerous because some cars are not given attention to bikes and they can destroy you.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 74.0Suggestion: Cevap doğrudan ve anlaşılır, fakat bazı dilbilgisi hataları ve daha fazla özgün ayrıntı eklenebilir. Cümlede zaman uyumuna dikkat edin (çocukluk için geçmiş zaman daha uygun). Ayrıca 1-2 kısa destekleyici cümle ekleyerek cevabı zenginleştirin; bağlaçlar kullanarak akışı iyileştirin (for example, however, so).
Example: No, I didn’t have my own bike when I was a child; instead, I often borrowed my cousin’s. For example, we would ride together to the nearby park on weekends, which was a highlight of my childhood. However, I learned basic cycling skills from those regular rides.

Score: 66.0Suggestion: Cevapta iyi bir fikir var fakat konuşma gayri resmi, biraz kaba ve korkutucu ifadeler kullanılmış. Daha uygun kelime seçimi ve net yapı (konu cümlesi + nedenler + örnek) kullanın. Bağlaçlarla (%however, because, for example) mantıksal akışı güçlendirin ve kesin ifadeler yerine ölçülü ifadeler kullanın (e.g., risky rather than they can destroy you). Ayrıca dilbilgisi ve kelime seçimine (attention to → pay attention to) dikkat edin.
Example: Yes, I think cycling is quite popular in my country because many cities have dedicated bike lanes and parks. However, it can be risky in some areas because many drivers do not always pay attention to cyclists. For example, I sometimes see cars passing too closely on narrow streets, which makes cycling less safe for casual riders.

✓ No, I never had a bike, but I always used my cousin's bike.
The student uses present perfect 'have never had' with a past-time context ('when you were a child'). In English, past simple is required for completed actions at a specific past time. Use 'I never had' to match 'when you were a child.' Also, the sentence structure is acceptable otherwise; ensure tense consistency by using past simple for both clauses when referring to childhood. Suggestion: Use past simple for past time expressions: 'I never had a bike when I was a child.'

✓ Yes, we have lots of places to ride bikes around the city, but sometimes it can be dangerous because some drivers do not pay attention to cyclists and they can injure you.
Multiple issues: 'Yeah' is informal; 'Yes' is more appropriate. The original uses passive and incorrect preposition 'are not given attention to bikes' which is ungrammatical. Use active construction: 'drivers do not pay attention to cyclists.' 'Cars' do not pay attention; drivers do. Also 'destroy you' is too strong and unnatural; use 'injure you.' Suggestions: Use active voice, correct subject (drivers), and a suitable verb and object: 'pay attention to cyclists' and 'injure' or 'hurt.'
