Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Bạn đã lặp lại câu hỏi của giám khảo thay vì trả lời. Hãy trả lời trực tiếp bằng một câu chủ đề, sau đó thêm 1–2 câu chi tiết cụ thể (ví dụ: ai tặng, khi nào, bạn đã dùng nó như thế nào). Sử dụng liên từ đơn giản nếu cần để nối ý (for example, because, so). Giữ tổng số câu không quá 5.

Example: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My parents bought it for me when I was eight, and I rode it to school almost every day. For example, I would cycle with my friends to the park on weekends, which helped me become more confident and active.

Suggestion: Bạn đã hiểu sai câu hỏi (nhầm 'bikes' thành 'pies') và lặp lại câu thay vì trả lời. Trước hết hãy trả lời trực tiếp về 'bikes'. Sau đó nêu lý do cụ thể và một ví dụ (ví dụ: dùng ở thành thị hay nông thôn, tiện lợi vì giao thông, xu hướng chia sẻ xe). Dùng từ liên kết như 'because' hoặc 'for instance' để làm rõ lý do.

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For instance, in cities there are many bike lanes and shared bike services, so students and commuters often choose cycling to avoid traffic.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The student repeated the examiner's question instead of answering; this is not a grammatical error but a pragmatic one. Provide a direct past-tense answer using the past simple 'had' to match 'Did you...'. Use a subject pronoun 'I' and past verb 'had'. Suggestion: Answer questions with an appropriate subject and past-tense verb (e.g., 'Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.').

× Do you think pies are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The student changed 'bikes' to 'pies', which is a lexical error rather than grammar, likely caused by mishearing or a pronoun/reference mistake. To be grammatically correct and contextually consistent, use 'bikes' (the intended noun) with the plural form to match 'are popular'. Suggestion: Listen carefully to the question and repeat key nouns accurately; ensure subject nouns agree with the verb (plural noun 'bikes' with 'are').
