Part 1

Did you have a bike when you were a child?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Ответ дан прямо, но фраза «I'm real big fan» требует артикля «a», а для увлечения, которое началось в прошлом и продолжается сейчас, естественнее сказать «I've been a big fan». Можно добавить конкретную деталь о велосипеде или о том, где вы катались.

Example: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bike, and I used to ride it around my neighborhood after school. I've been a big fan of cycling ever since.

Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: Начните с прямого ответа и уберите паузы-заполнители («uh»). Уточните, что именно означает «this theme», например интерес к велоспорту, и приведите конкретный пример. Исправьте грамматику: «friends who enjoy» (не «who enjoying»); также завершите мысль вместо незаконченного «this type of».

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in my region. Local cycling competitions attract a lot of participants, and many people in my town follow the sport. Several of my friends enjoy cycling together at weekends.

Grammar

6: Present tense issue

× Yes, of course I had one and I'm real big fan of cycling since my childhood.

✓ Yes, of course I had one, and I've been a big fan of cycling since my childhood.

The phrase since my childhood describes something that began in the past and continues now, so use the present perfect I've been rather than the present tense I'm.

22: Article errors

× Yes, of course I had one and I'm real big fan of cycling since my childhood.

✓ Yes, of course I had one, and I'm a real big fan of cycling.

The singular countable noun phrase big fan needs an article. Add a before real big fan.

8: Verb + -ing form

× Bikes are really popular in my country because, uh, even in my region, we had a lot of cycling competitions and uh, people, uh, in my town, uh, are very involved in this theme and I have a lot of friends who enjoying this type of.

✓ Bikes are really popular in my country because, even in my region, we have a lot of cycling competitions, people in my town are very involved in this activity, and I have a lot of friends who enjoy this type of activity.

In the relative clause, who is the subject, so use the simple present verb enjoy to describe a general interest. Enjoying would need an auxiliary verb, as in who are enjoying, but the simple present is more appropriate for a general habit.

26: Sentence structure errors

× Bikes are really popular in my country because, uh, even in my region, we had a lot of cycling competitions and uh, people, uh, in my town, uh, are very involved in this theme and I have a lot of friends who enjoying this type of.

✓ Bikes are really popular in my country because, even in my region, we have a lot of cycling competitions, people in my town are very involved in this activity, and I have a lot of friends who enjoy this type of activity.

The phrase this type of is incomplete because of needs a noun after it. Complete the phrase with a noun, such as activity.
