Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Puntuación: 40.0Sugerencia: Відповідь безпосередньо відповідає на запитання, але є граматична помилка: “hide” потрібно замінити на “had” або “owned”. Додайте одну конкретну деталь, наприклад, як часто ви їздили на велосипеді або де саме каталися. Використовуйте природну структуру: коротка відповідь, причина чи деталь і, за потреби, приклад.
Ejemplo: Yes, of course. I had a bike when I was a child, and I often rode it around my neighborhood. I especially enjoyed cycling with my friends at the weekends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Puntuación: 48.0Sugerencia: Ви висловили думку та вказали причину, але потрібно виправити граматику й лексику: “bikes aren’t” замість “bike isn’t”, “use electric scooters” замість “used electrosamuket”. Додайте зв’язку “because” або “although” і поясніть, чому електросамокати популярніші, наприклад через зручність у місті. Також краще сказати “in my country” або назвати конкретну країну.
Ejemplo: I don’t think bikes are very popular in my country because many people prefer electric scooters. They are convenient for short journeys and are easier to use in busy city streets. However, bicycles are still common among children and fitness enthusiasts.
× Yes, of course I hide the bike
✓ Yes, of course. I had a bike.
The question asks about a past situation: when you were a child. Therefore, use the past-tense verb had instead of the present-tense verb hide. Also, had a bike answers the examiner’s question directly.
× I think in my country bike isn't so popular because some people used electrosamuket.
✓ I think bikes are not so popular in my country because some people use electric scooters.
When speaking about bikes in general, use the plural noun bikes. The transport noun should also be plural: electric scooters. For general statements, plural countable nouns are usually more natural.
× I think in my country bike isn't so popular because some people used electrosamuket.
✓ I think bikes are not so popular in my country because some people use electric scooters.
The plural subject bikes must be followed by the plural verb are, not the singular verb is. Remember to match the verb with the subject: a bike is, but bikes are.
× I think in my country bike isn't so popular because some people used electrosamuket.
✓ I think bikes are not so popular in my country because some people use electric scooters.
The question asks about the present popularity of bikes, so use the present-tense verb use rather than the past-tense verb used. Use the present simple for general facts, habits, and current situations.
