Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 5.0Sugestão: Answer the examiner's question directly instead of repeating it. Also, use the correct past-tense structure: “when you were a child,” not “when you have child.” Add one or two specific details, such as when you got the bike or how often you rode it.
Exemplo: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I got it when I was about seven, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 5.0Sugestão: Give a direct opinion and use the plural noun “bikes,” rather than “biker,” which means a person who rides a bike. You also need the verb “are” in the question form, but in your response, explain why bikes are or are not popular and provide a relevant example.
Exemplo: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students and people who live in large cities. They are affordable and convenient, and they can also help reduce traffic pollution.

The question refers to a time in the past, so the verb must be in the past tense. Use were, the past tense of be, rather than have. The phrase when you were a child is the natural expression.

Child is a singular countable noun, so it needs the indefinite article a. Say a child, not child. Remember to use a or an before singular countable nouns when speaking generally.

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
The question is about bikes in general, so the plural noun bikes is needed. Also, biker usually refers to a person who rides a bike, whereas bike refers to the vehicle. Pay attention to whether you are talking about one item or items in general.

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
The clause after do you think needs a verb. Add are because bikes is the subject and popular is an adjective. A complete sentence normally requires a subject and a verb.
