Bike— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Your answer is incomplete and unclear. Give a direct yes/no or short descriptive sentence (topic sentence), then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it concise (no more than 5 sentences).

Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small red bicycle with training wheels, and I rode it to my friend’s house every weekend. Because my neighborhood was quiet and safe, I learned to ride it by the time I was six.

Sugestão: Your answer is unfinished. Start with a clear opinion (e.g., Yes/No/It depends), then support it with specific reasons and linking words. Provide one or two concrete examples to make your point. Keep answers natural and under five sentences.

Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. For example, many people use bicycles for short commutes because traffic is heavy and bike lanes are improving, so it’s convenient and eco-friendly.

× like

✓ Yes, I did.

ID 26: The student response 'like' is not a complete sentence and lacks a verb and subject, so it fails to answer the question. The examiner asked 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' which requires a past-tense yes/no response with a verb. Correction: 'Yes, I did.' or 'No, I didn’t.' Use a subject and the appropriate past-tense auxiliary 'did' to form a complete answer. Suggestion: Practice forming full responses to yes/no questions: start with Yes/No, then the subject and the auxiliary verb (did) and optionally add details (e.g., 'Yes, I did. I had a red bike.').

× I think

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

ID 26: The fragment 'I think' is incomplete and does not directly answer the question 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' The question expects an opinion about the popularity of bikes. Correction: 'Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country.' This provides a complete clause with a subject, verb, and object of the opinion. Suggestion: When giving opinions, follow 'I think' with a complete clause explaining the opinion (e.g., 'I think bikes are popular because many people use them for commuting.').
