Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your response repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. Give a clear direct answer (yes/no or short statement) and then add one or two specific details using linking words (e.g., because, so, when). Keep it natural and no more than 4–5 sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was about seven. It was a small red bicycle with training wheels, and I learned to ride it in my neighborhood park. Because my parents encouraged outdoor play, I spent most afternoons cycling with my friends.

Sugestão: You again repeated the examiner's question and changed tense incorrectly. Instead, state your opinion directly (e.g., Yes, I think…) and support it with specific reasons and a linking word (e.g., because, for example). Keep answers concise and coherent.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, in big cities there are bike-sharing programs and dedicated lanes, so cycling has become a convenient option for many residents.

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

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The student's reply repeated the examiner's question rather than answering. The examiner's question uses past simple ('Did you have...'), so the correct response should be past simple: 'I had'. Use 'Yes, I had a bike' or 'No, I didn't have a bike.' Provide a complete sentence with a verb to answer the question.

× Did you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The student used past simple 'Did you think' while the examiner's question asked in present simple 'Do you think...'. To match the examiner's tense and meaning, use present simple 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' If answering, respond with present simple: 'Yes, I think bikes are popular' or 'No, I don't think so.'
