Examiner
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Candidate
Yes the bikes are in popular in my country because the hero on the company and other pulsar and more bikes are famous in India.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Score: 5.0Suggestion: You misunderstood the question: the examiner asked whether you owned or rode a bike as a child, not whether you had a wife. Listen for the key word “bike” and answer directly with “Yes” or “No,” then add one relevant detail.
Example: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was very young, but I learned to ride one when I was about eight.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Score: 35.0Suggestion: Answer directly, then explain your reason in a clear sentence. Use the correct phrase “bikes are popular,” and name the brands or models accurately—for example, Hero and Bajaj Pulsar. Add a specific detail, such as their affordability or suitability for commuting.
Example: Yes, motorcycles are very popular in India. Brands such as Hero and Bajaj are well known, and many people use their bikes because they’re affordable and convenient for commuting.
× Yes the bikes are in popular in my country because the hero on the company and other pulsar and more bikes are famous in India.
✓ Yes, bikes are popular in my country because Hero, Pulsar, and other bike brands are famous in India.
The phrase 'in popular' uses an unnecessary preposition. 'Popular' is an adjective that does not take 'in' here. Say 'bikes are popular.'
× Yes the bikes are in popular in my country because the hero on the company and other pulsar and more bikes are famous in India.
✓ Yes, bikes are popular in my country because Hero, Pulsar, and other bike brands are famous in India.
The clause beginning with 'because' is not structured clearly: 'the hero on the company and other pulsar' does not form a grammatical subject. Name the brands and use a clear subject, such as 'Hero, Pulsar, and other bike brands.'
