Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your response repeats the examiner's question instead of answering. For a better score, answer directly with a clear topic sentence, give one or two specific supporting details, and keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences). Use linking words like “because” or “so” if you add reasons or results. Also include a time reference or short anecdote to make it more natural.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was about eight years old. It was a small blue bicycle with training wheels, and I learned to ride it in the park near my home. Because my parents encouraged me to practise every weekend, I became confident riding without help within a few months.

Sugestão: Again, you echoed the question rather than responding. To improve, give a direct opinion first (e.g. “Yes, I think so” or “Not really”), then support it with specific reasons or examples, using linking words such as “because,” “for example,” or “however.” Keep answers natural, relevant vocabulary, and stay within five sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. For example, many people use e-bikes for short commutes because they are cheap and avoid traffic. However, in rural areas cars are still more common due to longer distances.

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

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

The student's response repeated the examiner's question instead of producing a full answer. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26) because the reply lacks a proper subject and verb form to answer the yes/no question. Correct response uses past simple 'had' to match the question's past tense and includes the subject 'I' and an explicit affirmative 'Yes' to make a complete, natural answer. Suggestion: answer yes/no questions with a short response plus a full sentence for clarity (e.g., 'Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.' or 'No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.').

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.

The student repeated the examiner's question instead of giving an answer, which is a sentence structure error (ID 26). The correct reply should include a subject and verb expressing the student's opinion in present simple tense ('I think') to match the question. Suggestion: respond to opinion questions with a brief yes/no plus a full clause with the appropriate tense (e.g., 'Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.' or 'No, I don't think bikes are very popular in my country.').
