Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Your answer is unclear and appears to repeat or mishear the examiner’s question. First, respond directly with a topic sentence (e.g., “Yes, I did” or “No, I didn’t”). Then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words (for example, “because” or “so”), keeping the total to no more than five short sentences. Also correct the misheard word: the examiner asked about a “bike.”

Ejemplo: Yes, I did. I had a small red bike when I was eight because my parents bought it for my birthday. It helped me learn to ride with training wheels, so I could ride to my friend’s house after school.

Sugerencia: You repeated the examiner’s question instead of answering. Begin with a clear view: say “Yes, they are” or “No, they aren’t,” then give 1–2 specific reasons and an example, using linking words like “because,” “for example,” or “however.” Keep answers concise and natural (max five sentences).

Ejemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For example, in cities you can see bike lanes and people commuting to work by bike, which helps reduce traffic and pollution.

× Did you have a mic when you are you were a child?

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?

This sentence contains an incorrect word choice ('mic' instead of 'bike') and a tense/structure error ('are you were' is incorrect). The examiner's question uses past tense 'Did you have... when you were a child?', so the student should mirror that past simple structure. Replace 'mic' with 'bike' to match the meaning, remove the extraneous words 'are you', and keep 'were' for the past time clause. Suggestion: practice distinguishing similar-sounding words and keep time clauses in the correct past form (when you were...).

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is grammatically correct. It uses present simple 'Do you think' and 'are popular' appropriately to ask about a current general state. No correction is needed. Suggestion: none; the sentence correctly matches the present-tense question form and subject-verb agreement.
