Bike— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Your response repeats the examiner's question instead of answering and contains grammatical errors ("you're" should be "you were" or "you were a"). To improve, answer directly with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two brief supporting details using linking words. Keep answers natural and no more than five sentences. For example, begin with Yes/No, state age or type of bike, and give a short reason or memory.

Ejemplo: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bicycle when I was about eight, and I loved riding it around my neighborhood. Because it was lightweight and had training wheels at first, I learned to balance quickly, which gave me a lot of confidence.

Sugerencia: Again, you repeated the examiner's question rather than answering it. Improve by giving a clear opinion in the first sentence, then support it with specific reasons or an example. Use linking words like "because," "for example," or "however" to make your response coherent and concise. Aim for 2–4 sentences total.

Ejemplo: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. For example, many people use bikes for short trips because they are cheaper and faster than cars in heavy traffic, and recently bike-sharing programs have become common.

× Did you have a bike when you're child?

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

The student used the contraction 'you're' (you are) incorrectly instead of the past-tense pronoun form 'you were'. The question asks about a past time, so the past-tense verb 'were' is required. Suggestion: use 'were' for past reference with 'you' (e.g., 'when you were a child').

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is already correct. It uses the present simple 'do you think' to ask about a general truth and 'are popular' to describe current general popularity. No change is needed.
