Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 35.0Gợi ý: Expand your answer with a clear topic sentence and at least one supporting detail. Use linking words if you add more information. For example, briefly say whether you owned one, why you did or didn’t, and include a specific detail such as who you rode with or how you traveled instead. Keep it natural and within 2–4 sentences.
Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My family couldn’t afford one at the time, so I usually walked to school with my friends or took public transport. As a result, I didn’t learn to ride until I was a teenager.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 45.0Gợi ý: Answer directly with a clear topic sentence, then add specific supporting details using linking words. Correct grammar and word choice (e.g. 'bikes are popular' not 'biker popular'). Mention reasons, where they are common, or who uses them to make the answer concrete and coherent.
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country. For instance, many people use them for short commutes because they are cheap and convenient, especially in cities where traffic is heavy. In addition, cycling is common among students and delivery workers.
× Yes, biker popular in my country.
✓ Yes, bikes are popular in my country.
The original sentence uses the singular noun 'biker' incorrectly; the question asks about the general popularity of bicycles, so a plural noun 'bikes' is appropriate (singular/plural issue). Additionally, the sentence lacks the verb 'are' for present simple passive/existential meaning; using 'are' with the plural subject ensures correct subject-verb agreement. Suggestion: use 'bikes' (plural) and include the correct auxiliary verb 'are' to form 'bikes are popular'.
