Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 45.0Gợi ý: Говорите полными естественными предложениями и избегайте повторов. Начните с простой темы («Yes, I did») и добавьте 1–2 конкретные детали (например, кто подарил велосипед, какого он был размера или как часто вы на нём ездили). Старайтесь не повторять реплику экзаменатора и избегать заполнителей («uh», «I had») без завершения мысли.
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. My parents bought me a small red bike when I was six, and I rode it almost every day after school until I was ten.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: Уменьшите количество пауз и повторов, стройте ответы связно и логично. Дайте тему, затем конкретные примеры или причину: когда они популярны, кто их использует и почему. Используйте связки (for example, because, especially) и ограничьте ответ до 2–4 предложений без лишних «uh».
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are very popular, especially in spring and summer. For example, many adults cycle to work and young people ride for leisure, mainly because cycling is cheap, healthy and convenient in cities.
× Uh, did you have a bike when you were a child? Yes, I had.
✓ Yes, I did.
The student repeated the examiner's question, creating confusion, and used 'I had' without an object which is unnatural in this short response. The correct short answer to a yes/no past question uses the auxiliary did plus the subject: 'Yes, I did.' Suggestion: Use short answers with the appropriate auxiliary verb (did) for past simple questions, or give a full sentence such as 'Yes, I had a bike.'
× Uh, yes, uh, I, I do think that bikes are popular in my country, especially, uh, in spring and summer, uh, there are lots of people and, uh, different ages, uh, adults or young people, uh, use.
✓ Yes, I do think that bikes are popular in my country, especially in spring and summer, when many people of different ages, both adults and young people, use them.
Run-on structure and omission of the object 'them' for 'use' make the sentence grammatically incorrect and unclear. Use 'when' to connect the time clause and 'many people of different ages' for clarity. Also include the pronoun 'them' to refer back to 'bikes.' Suggestion: Break long utterances into clauses, include referential pronouns for objects, and avoid filler words for clearer speech.
