Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 48.0Sugestão: Be direct, grammatically correct and give specific supporting details. Start with a clear topic sentence (e.g. “Yes, I had a bike as a child.”), then add 1–2 specific details (when you got it, how you used it) using linking words (e.g. “because,” “so,” “and”). Also correct verb tense and word choice: use past tense (had, bought, rode) and use the correct verb (bought) and noun order (my bicycle). Keep to no more than 3–4 sentences.
Exemplo: Yes, I had a bicycle when I was a child. I bought it for my tenth birthday and rode it to school and to the park every day. Because it was light and reliable, I used it for short errands and to visit friends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 52.0Sugestão: Answer directly and provide specific reasons or examples. Begin with a clear opinion (e.g. “Not very popular”), then support it with 1–2 concrete reasons and a linking phrase (e.g. “because,” “for example,” “however”). Use natural phrasing: “I don’t see many people using bikes” instead of “many people love bikes.” Keep sentences concise and grammatically correct.
Exemplo: Not very popular. I don’t see many people riding bicycles in my city because public transport is cheap and roads are busy, so most people prefer buses or scooters. For example, on my commute I usually see only a few cyclists compared with many motorbikes.
× Yes, I did when I was young. I always buy by bicycle.
✓ Yes, I did when I was young. I always bought my bicycle.
The student is referring to past habitual action, so past tense 'bought' should be used instead of present 'buy' (Grammar Problem Type ID 5). Also 'by bicycle' is incorrect preposition/possessive use: it should be 'my bicycle' to indicate ownership or 'by bicycle' for means of travel; here ownership is intended, so use 'my bicycle'. Suggestion: use past simple for past habits and ensure correct noun phrase (my bicycle).
× To be honest, not really because I never see many people love bikes.
✓ To be honest, not really, because I never see many people who love bikes.
This sentence has a relative clause missing a pronoun (people who love bikes) and also a present simple observation should use 'see' or better 'see many people who ride/love bikes'. The main issue matching the provided list is incorrect use/missing pronoun in the relative clause (Grammar Problem Type ID 12). Suggestion: insert 'who' after 'people' to form a correct relative clause and consider using 'ride' instead of 'love' if referring to usage: 'I don't see many people who ride bikes.'
