Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. For a good Part 1 reply, give a clear topic sentence stating whether you had a bike, then add one or two supporting details (age, how often you rode, or a brief memory). Keep it natural and concise (no more than 5 sentences) and use linking words if you add details.

Exemplo: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child. I got it when I was about seven, and I rode it to school and around the neighborhood almost every day. Because I practiced a lot, I became quite confident riding on busy streets by the time I was ten.

Sugestão: You repeated the examiner's question instead of giving your opinion. For this question, give a clear direct opinion first, then support it with specific reasons or examples (e.g., transport habits, infrastructure, or who uses bikes). Use linking words like 'because' or 'for example' to make your answer coherent and natural, and keep it brief.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, cities have dedicated bike lanes and you often see students and delivery riders on bicycles during rush hour.

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

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

The original student reply simply repeated the examiner's question and did not provide an answer. This is a sentence structure/response error (no proper answer). Correction provides a complete past-tense statement (subject + past-tense verb + object) matching the question's past timeframe. Suggestion: Answer questions with a full clause including subject and verb; for past-time questions use past tense (had).

× 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 a statement. This is a response/tense usage problem: the question asks for the speaker's present opinion, so the reply should be a present-tense declarative sentence using I think. Correction uses present simple 'I think' and appropriate clause. Suggestion: When asked for opinions use 'I think' or 'In my opinion' followed by present-tense verb for general statements.
