Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Answer the examiner's question directly instead of repeating it. Begin with a clear response such as “Yes, I did” or “No, I didn’t,” and then add one or two specific details, such as when you rode the bike, where you used it, or who gave it to you. Use a linking word such as “because” or “and” to connect your ideas.

Example: Yes, I did. I had a blue bike when I was about eight years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends. It was a great way to have fun and get some exercise.

Suggestion: Answer the question about bicycles directly rather than repeating it. Be careful with pronunciation because “bikes” and “bites” have different meanings. State your opinion first, then support it with a specific reason or example, using a linking word such as “because,” “especially,” or “for example.”

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among young people and commuters. They are convenient and inexpensive, and many people use them to travel short distances or exercise. For example, bike-sharing services are common in large cities.
