Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Câu trả lời cần rõ ràng, mạch lạc và đúng ngữ pháp. Bạn nên bắt đầu bằng câu chủ đề trả lời trực tiếp (Yes, I did), sau đó cung cấp 1–2 câu chi tiết hỗ trợ (ví dụ nơi bạn sống, lý do dùng xe đạp, tần suất sử dụng). Tránh câu hỏi ngược lại không liên quan và sửa lỗi ngữ pháp như thì động từ và trật tự từ. Sử dụng liên từ đơn giản như “so” hoặc “because” để nối ý và giữ tổng số câu không quá 5 câu.
Example: Yes, I did. I grew up in a small town, so I often rode my bike to school every day. It was the easiest and cheapest way to travel short distances, and I usually spent about 15 minutes cycling each way.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: Cần trả lời trực tiếp và đưa lý do cụ thể, tránh lặp từ và nói ấp úng. Bắt đầu với câu chủ đề (Yes, they are), rồi nêu lý do cụ thể (ví dụ: chi phí thấp, tiện lợi trong thành phố nhỏ, ít phương tiện công cộng). Dùng liên từ như “because” hoặc “so” để kết nối ý, và hoàn thành câu với kết luận rõ ràng. Giữ độ dài hợp lý (1–3 câu).
Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many people find them affordable and convenient for short trips. In smaller towns there are fewer public transport options, so bicycles are often the quickest way to get around.
× When were you travel?
✓ When did you travel?
The sentence uses an incorrect auxiliary and verb form. In English, past simple questions require 'did' + base verb. 'Were you travel' mixes past continuous auxiliary 'were' with base verb 'travel', which is incorrect. Use 'When did you travel?' to ask about a completed action in the past. Suggestion: Form past simple questions with 'did' + base verb (e.g., 'When did you visit?').
× I studied in my country in belong city and I should go to go to school with my bike, Yes.
✓ I studied in my home town and I used to go to school by bike.
Multiple issues: 'belong city' is incorrect word choice and order — use 'home town' or 'hometown'. 'I should go to go to school' is incorrect modal usage and repetition; to describe habitual past action use 'used to'. Also preposition for transport is 'by bike'. Suggestion: Use 'used to' for past habits and 'by' for means of transport; use 'hometown' or 'my home town' for the place you belong to.
× Yes, of course, because uh, I was born in 2008. So I think in this in this time, uh don't have a lot of transport transport station so we.
✓ Yes, of course. I was born in 2008, so I think at that time there weren't many transport options, so we used bikes.
Several tense and structure issues: 'in this in this time' should be 'at that time' to refer to the past. 'don't have' is present tense and missing subject; use past tense 'there weren't' or 'there weren't many'. 'transport station' is wrong collocation; better 'transport options' or 'public transport'. Also sentence fragment 'so we.' needs completion (e.g., 'so we used bikes'). Suggestion: Match past reference words (at that time), use 'there were' for existence in past, and complete the clause to express the outcome.
