Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your response repeated the examiner’s question instead of answering. Give a direct, concise answer (one topic sentence) then 1–2 supporting details. Keep it natural and avoid simply rephrasing the question. Use linking words if you add details.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I rode it to school and around my neighborhood almost every day, which helped me stay active and make friends. Because the roads were quiet, I felt safe practicing new skills like riding without hands.

Gợi ý: You turned the examiner’s question into another question and did not provide an opinion. Start with a clear opinion (Yes/No/Partly) and then add specific reasons or examples using linking words (for example, because, so, however). Keep answers to a maximum of five sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities. For example, many people use bicycles to commute short distances because traffic and parking are difficult, and new bike lanes make cycling safer. However, bike use is less common in rural areas where distances are longer.

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

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a kid.

The student's reply repeated the examiner's question form without answering. This is a sentence structure issue (ID 26). Use a statement with a past-tense verb to answer a past-time Yes/No question. Suggestion: start with Yes/No and use past simple (had) rather than repeating the question form.

× Did you think are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The student used past auxiliary 'Did' with present-time verb 'think' and inverted subject and verb incorrectly, causing a tense and question-formation error. This fits Present tense issue (ID 6). For asking about present opinions, use present simple question 'Do you think' followed by the subject and predicate 'bikes are popular in your country'. Suggestion: use 'Do you think' + clause in present simple and keep normal word order in the complement clause ('bikes are popular').
