Bike— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Answer the examiner’s question instead of repeating it. Give a direct yes-or-no response, then add one relevant detail, such as when you got the bike or where you rode it.

Example: Yes, I did. I got my first bike when I was about eight, and I used to ride it around my neighborhood.

Suggestion: Your answer is relevant, but some phrases are unclear and grammatically incorrect. Use the plural “bikes,” explain how people use them, and replace “and any other, etc.” with one specific example. Link your reason clearly to your answer.

Example: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. Many people use them to commute to work, while others ride for exercise. They’re also commonly used by food-delivery workers.

× Yes, of course. Bike is popular in our country because of many people's, uh, work and bike, Uber and any other, etc.

✓ Yes, of course. Bikes are popular in our country because many people use them for work, including as bike taxis or through services such as Uber.

When speaking about bikes in general, use the plural form bikes rather than the singular bike. The corrected sentence also uses them to refer clearly to bikes.

× Yes, of course. Bike is popular in our country because of many people's, uh, work and bike, Uber and any other, etc.

✓ Yes, of course. Bikes are popular in our country because many people use them for work, including as bike taxis or through services such as Uber.

The phrase because of many people's, uh, work and bike, Uber and any other, etc. does not form a clear, well-structured explanation. Use a complete clause after because, such as many people use them for work, and give a clear example. The student's repeated question is grammatically correct, so it does not need correction.
