Candidato

Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 45.0Sugestão: Answer directly with a clear topic sentence, add one or two specific supporting details, and avoid repeating the examiner's question. Use linking words (e.g., "when", "so", "because") to make the response coherent. Keep it to no more than 5 sentences and use more precise vocabulary (e.g., "bicycle" rather than repeating words).
Exemplo: Yes, I had a small bicycle when I was a child. When I was about eight years old, my parents bought it for me, and I rode it to school and around the neighborhood every day. Because there were few cars in our area, cycling felt safe and fun.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 60.0Sugestão: Start with a clear opinion sentence (e.g., "I don't think bicycles are very popular in my country."), then give specific reasons and an example. Use linking words (e.g., "because", "however", "for example") to connect ideas. Replace filler sounds ("uh") and avoid repetition. Aim for 2–4 succinct sentences with varied vocabulary (e.g., "bicycles", "commute", "public transport").
Exemplo: I don't think bicycles are very popular in my country because most people prefer cars or public transport for commuting. For example, in my city there are few bike lanes and many commuters find cycling unsafe, so they choose buses or motorbikes instead.
× Did you have a bike when you were a child?
✓ Yes, I did.
The student's reply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering; this is a sentence structure/pragmatic error (Type 26). Provide a short past simple answer to match the question: use 'Yes, I did' or 'No, I didn't.' Avoid repeating the question; respond with the appropriate verb form for past tense.
× Uh, in my country bike, uh, bikes are not so popular.
✓ Uh, in my country, bikes are not very popular.
The original has disfluent repetition and a word order/punctuation problem (Type 26). Remove the repeated 'bike' and place a comma after 'country'. Use 'not very popular' instead of 'not so popular' for clearer, more natural phrasing. Ensure noun 'bikes' is plural to agree with the general statement.
