Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 30.0

Suggestion: Відповідь студента не відповідає на питання — він просто повторив його. Потрібно давати чітку вступну пропозицію (так/ні) і додавати 1–2 речення з деталями (наприклад, коли і де ви каталися, з ким, або яку пам’ять маєте). Уникайте повторення питання та зайвих пауз чи звуків («uh").

Example: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle when I was about seven, and I used to ride it to my friend’s house every afternoon. It helped me become more independent and I have fond memories of learning to balance with my father’s help.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 55.0

Suggestion: Відповідь дає загальну думку, але містить мовні помилки та заповнення («uh») і небагато деталей. Потрібно починати з повної тематичної фрази, уникати граматичних помилок (наприклад, «a bikes» → «bikes») і додавати 1–2 підтримуючих деталі з прикладами або причинами, використовуючи зв’язки (наприклад, “because” / “for example” / “as a result”).

Example: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For example, teenagers often cycle to school or to meet friends, and in recent years cities have added more bike lanes, which has encouraged even more people to ride.

Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× Yeah, I think so, because a lot of, uh, teenagers ride a bikes.

Yeah, I think so, because a lot of teenagers ride bikes.

The error is that 'a' is used with the plural noun 'bikes'. In English, the indefinite article 'a' is used only with singular countable nouns. Remove 'a' before the plural noun or change to a singular form if intended. Suggestion: say 'a teenager rides a bike' for singular, or 'teenagers ride bikes' for plural; here plural matches 'a lot of teenagers'.
