Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 42.0

Suggestion: Bạn trả lời đúng trọng tâm và có nhắc đến việc ông bà giúp tập đi xe, nhưng câu trả lời bị ngắt giữa chừng và có nhiều từ đệm. Dùng thì quá khứ nhất quán: “I had”, “I was”, “I fell off”. Hãy nói rõ lý do bạn sợ và kết thúc bằng một ý hoàn chỉnh; có thể dùng “because” hoặc “although” để nối ý.

Example: Yes, I had my own bike when I was a child. My grandparents helped me learn how to ride it. I was quite scared because I fell off a couple of times, but I eventually became more confident.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 57.0

Suggestion: Bạn đã nêu quan điểm rõ ràng và đưa ra lý do về sự tiện lợi, chi phí thấp. Tuy nhiên, hãy sửa “almost people” thành “most people” và dùng “bikes” khi nói chung. Tránh cụm chưa tự nhiên “travel to like walk around the street”; hãy nói cụ thể người dân dùng xe đạp để đi lại hoặc dạo quanh khu phố. Có thể gộp ý chi phí thấp để tránh lặp.

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in Vietnam, especially for short trips around town. Many people use them because they’re convenient and inexpensive to maintain. They’re also a practical way to get around crowded streets.

Grammar

5: Past tense issue

× I would say that when I was a child, I have uh, my own bike.

✓ I would say that when I was a child, I had my own bike.

The sentence refers to a period in the past, so use the simple past had rather than the present perfect form have. Keep the verb tense consistent with when I was a child.

8: Verb + -ing form

× My grandparents helped me to practice, to ride the bike.

✓ My grandparents helped me practice riding the bike.

When practice is followed by another verb, that verb is normally in the -ing form. Say practice riding, not practice to ride.

5: Past tense issue

× But I'm really scared and because I have followed like twice when I try to ride that back.

✓ But I was really scared because I fell off my bike about twice when I tried to ride it.

The events happened when you were a child, so use past-tense verbs: was, fell, and tried. Fell off is the appropriate expression for falling from a bike. Avoid combining and with because in this sentence; because already introduces the reason.

14: Incorrect use of quantifiers

× Almost people use bike to travel to like walk around the street.

✓ Almost all people use bikes to travel around the streets.

Almost cannot directly modify people in this meaning. Use almost all people or almost everyone. Almost all people is followed by the plural noun people.

1: Singular and plural issue

× Almost people use bike to travel to like walk around the street.

✓ Almost all people use bikes to travel around the streets.

When referring generally to bicycles, use the plural form bikes. Streets should also be plural when referring to streets in general.

13: Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× The cost is really cheap.

✓ The cost is really low.

Cheap usually describes something that can be bought, such as a bike. To describe the amount of a cost, use low: the cost is low.
