Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your response repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a direct answer with a brief topic sentence, then add 1–2 supporting details using linking words. Keep it natural and under five sentences.

Example: Yes, I did. I had a red bicycle that I rode to school and around my neighborhood, and it helped me build confidence and independence. For example, I used it every weekend to visit friends and explore nearby parks.

Suggestion: Your answer is relevant and personal but could be improved by starting with a clear topic sentence, adding a specific reason or example, and using linking words for coherence. Avoid repeating similar words ("very helpful" and "very healthy" are redundant). Keep the reply within three sentences.

Example: Bikes are not very popular in my country, but I think they should be. For instance, cycling reduces traffic congestion and improves cardiovascular health, so I would recommend building more bike lanes to encourage people to ride.

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

✓ Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child.

The student repeated the examiner's question verbatim instead of answering. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26). Provide a direct answer to the yes/no question and, if desired, add brief details. Suggestion: start with 'Yes, I did' or 'No, I didn't' and follow with a short elaboration.

× Not really, but they are actually very helpful and very healthy for our health, so I would recommend more bikes in our city and my country.

✓ Not really; however, bikes are very useful for health, so I would recommend more bikes in our city and in my country.

This sentence has redundancy and awkward phrasing, classified as sentence structure errors (ID 26). 'Very healthy for our health' is redundant; use 'useful for health' or 'good for our health.' Also, use a clearer connector ('however') and simpler location phrasing ('in my city and country' or 'in our city and country'). Suggestion: remove redundancy, use appropriate linking words, and keep the sentence concise.
