Part 1

Examiner

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Candidate

No, I haven't got any bike. I didn't, but after I grew up, uh, my father bought me a one, but it was late for me.

Examiner

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Candidate

Yes, I do, because every child and things, bikes are special for them and we have a seaside in Istanbul, so you can take a bike and you can ride it there. So it would be a nice trip or nice activity.

Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 45.0

Suggestion: Geçmişte çocukken bisikletiniz olmadığını anlatırken geçmiş zaman kullanın: “I didn’t have a bike.” “A one” yerine “one” ya da “a bike” demelisiniz. Babanızın bisikleti aldığında artık büyümüş olduğunuzu daha doğal ve açık biçimde ifade edin. Yanıtı doğrudan verip kısa bir açıklamayla tamamlayın.

Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My father bought me one when I was older, but by then I had outgrown the idea of learning to ride.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Fikrinizi doğrudan belirtiyorsunuz; ancak “every child and things” ifadesi doğal ve anlaşılır değil. Bunun yerine bisikletlerin özellikle çocuklar arasında popüler olduğunu söyleyin. İstanbul’daki sahil yollarını daha doğru biçimde “along the seaside” veya “along the coast” diye tanımlayın. Neden-sonuç ilişkisini “because” ve “so” ile kurup tekrarları azaltın; somut bir örnek ekleyin.

Example: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in Turkey, especially among children. In Istanbul, people can ride along the seaside, which makes cycling a pleasant way to spend time outdoors. It’s also a convenient activity for families on weekends.

Grammar

5: Past tense issue

× No, I haven't got any bike.

✓ No, I didn't have a bike.

The question asks about the past, so use the simple past form didn't have rather than the present perfect form haven't got. For questions about childhood, answer in the past tense.

22: Article errors

× My father bought me a one.

✓ My father bought me one.

One replaces the noun bike here, so it should not be preceded by the article a. Say bought me one.

26: Sentence structure errors

× Yes, I do, because every child and things, bikes are special for them.

✓ Yes, I do, because bikes are special to every child.

The phrase every child and things does not form a clear grammatical subject, and them does not clearly refer to a suitable antecedent. Use a complete, clearly structured clause, such as bikes are special to every child.
