Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your response simply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. For Part 1 you should answer directly with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two brief supporting details using linking words. Keep answers natural and under five sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bicycle that my parents bought me for my eighth birthday, and I rode it every weekend in the park. Because it had training wheels at first, I felt safe learning to balance, and by the time I was ten I could ride confidently on the road.

Gợi ý: Again you repeated the examiner's question and changed tense incorrectly. Give a direct opinion (Yes/No/It depends), then support it with specific reasons or examples and use linking words to connect ideas.

Ví dụ: I think bikes are moderately popular in my country. For example, many people use bicycles for short trips in cities because they are cheap and convenient, but in rural areas cars are more common due to longer distances.

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

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The student's reply repeated the examiner's question rather than answering. The correct response should use past simple tense 'had' to state possession in the past. Suggestion: answer directly with a past-simple sentence (subject + past verb), e.g., 'Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.'

× Did you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The student used past tense 'Did you think' but the examiner's question asks about the present general opinion, so present simple 'Do you think' is required. This is a tense mismatch. Suggestion: use present simple for general opinions: 'Do you think...?' and keep the embedded clause in present simple 'bikes are popular.'
