Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer is very short and does not follow the Basic Structure or provide supporting details. To improve, give a direct topic sentence and then add one or two specific supporting details (e.g., when you had it, who gave it to you, how you used it, or a memory). Use a linking word to connect ideas and keep the response to no more than 3–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I got a red bicycle when I was seven from my parents, and I used it to ride to school and to visit friends. Because I rode it every day, I became quite confident and it remains one of my fondest childhood memories.

Gợi ý: The response is inappropriate and does not answer the question. To improve, answer directly with a topic sentence stating your opinion, then add one or two specific reasons or examples using linking words (e.g., 'because', 'for example'). Keep it natural and concise (no more than 3 sentences).

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are fairly popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For example, in cities there are dedicated bike lanes and shared bike schemes, which makes cycling convenient for commuting.

× Hello.

✓ Yes, they are.

The student response 'Hello.' does not answer the examiner's question and lacks the required sentence structure for a response about popularity. This is a sentence structure error because it provides an irrelevant utterance instead of a subject and verb that address the question. Suggested correction 'Yes, they are.' uses the correct subject 'they' (referring to bikes) and the verb 'are' to match plural subject, fitting the present-tense question 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' For fuller answers, the student can expand: 'Yes, they are popular, especially in cities because they are convenient and inexpensive.' Practice forming responses that repeat or reference the subject (bikes) and include a verb and any supporting information.
