Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: You misunderstood the task: instead of answering, you repeated the examiner’s question and also used incorrect grammar. For a good Part 1 answer, respond directly with a clear topic sentence, one or two supporting details, and keep it natural and brief (no more than 4–5 sentences). Use past tense for childhood. For example, start with “Yes, I had a bike when I was a child,” then add a specific detail about it and a short reason or memory.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small red bicycle my parents bought me for my seventh birthday, and I used to ride it to the park every weekend. Because it had training wheels at first, I learned to balance gradually and felt very proud when I could ride without them.

Gợi ý: Again, you repeated the examiner’s question instead of answering. Also use present tense and provide specific reasons or examples to support your opinion. Begin with a clear opinion sentence, then give one or two concrete supporting points (e.g., statistics, common uses, comparisons with other transport). Keep answers concise and coherent using linking words like “because” or “for example.”

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 bike lanes and shared bike programs, and students often cycle to school to save money and avoid traffic.

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

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

The question refers to a past time ('when you were a child'), so the subordinate clause must use past tense 'were' rather than present 'are'. Use 'were' for past states; correct form: 'when you were a child'. Suggestion: match the tense of time expressions to the past question form by using past simple ('did') and past of 'be' ('were').

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is already correct: it asks about a general present situation using present simple 'do you think' and 'are popular'. No change necessary. Suggestion: maintain present simple for general facts or habits.
