スコア: 65.0提案: Cevabınız soruya doğrudan “Yes” diyerek başlıyor ve bisikletin görünüşüyle ilgili ayrıntılar veriyorsunuz. Ancak “when I was a child's” yerine “when I was a child”, “two wheeled” yerine “two-wheeled”, “friends who jealous” yerine “friends who were jealous” kullanılmalı. “Go somewhere and for some trips” ifadesi doğal değil; bunun yerine “get around” veya “go on short trips” diyebilirsiniz. Ayrıca “uh” tekrarlarını azaltın ve ayrıntıları daha düzenli bağlamak için “It was also...” veya “Because of this...” gibi bağlayıcılar kullanın. Cevabı 3–4 net cümleyle tamamlamanız daha etkili olur.
例: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a nice, two-wheeled bike with lots of colorful stickers on it. I often used it to get around my neighborhood and go on short trips with my friends. Some of them were even jealous because my bike looked so cool.

スコア: 72.0提案: Cevabınız soruya doğrudan cevap veriyor ve çocuklar ile yaşlılar arasında anlamlı bir karşılaştırma yapıyor. Ancak “tend to to use” ifadesindeki tekrar düzeltilmeli; doğru kullanım “tend to use” şeklindedir. “The older people” yerine genel bir gruptan söz ederken “older people” demek daha doğaldır. “Much much faster” yerine “much faster” veya “considerably faster” kullanın. Ayrıca bisikletlerin neden çocuklar ve gençler arasında popüler olduğunu açıklamak için “because they are affordable and convenient” gibi daha spesifik bir neden ekleyebilirsiniz.
