Điểm: 45.0Gợi ý: Improve grammar and sentence structure: use correct tense and subject–verb agreement. Give a clear, direct topic sentence and one brief supporting detail. Keep it natural and concise (no more than 3–4 sentences).
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a red bicycle when I was about eight years old, and I used to ride it to friends’ houses every weekend. It helped me feel independent and gave me a lot of confidence to ride on busy streets.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 50.0Gợi ý: Make the answer more coherent and specific: use linking words (because, so, for example) and correct verb forms. Avoid repetition and vague phrases; give one or two specific reasons or an example. Limit to 3–4 concise sentences.
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short trips. For example, many families use motorbikes to travel together to the market or school, which saves time and money. In addition, the traffic and narrow streets make bikes a practical choice for daily travel.
× Yeah, I have a bike when I were a child.
✓ Yeah, I had a bike when I was a child.
The sentence mixes present tense 'have' with past context 'when I were a child'. Use past simple 'had' for possession in the past and correct the subject-verb form 'were' to 'was' for first person singular. Suggestion: Use 'I had' and 'I was' for past statements about yourself.
× Yeah, bikes are so popular in my country because many people around my around me are driving it and they feel easy to drive it and they feel enjoy while driving it.
✓ Yeah, bikes are very popular in my country because many people around me ride them; they find them easy to use and enjoy riding them.
Several tense and word-choice errors: 'are so popular' is acceptable but 'so' is informal; 'around my around me' is redundant; 'are driving it' incorrectly uses present continuous and singular object 'it' for plural 'bikes'; 'feel easy to drive it' is ungrammatical—use 'find them easy to use' or 'easy to ride'; 'feel enjoy while driving it' mixes verb forms—use 'enjoy riding them'. Suggestions: remove redundancy, use simple present 'ride' for habitual actions, match plural pronouns 'them' to 'bikes', and use 'find' + adjective or 'enjoy' + gerund.
× And they also sit with their mothers and sisters with them and also feel easy to go anywhere that feel good.
✓ They also sit with their mothers and sisters and find it easy to go anywhere, which feels good.
Problems include repeated 'with' and awkward phrasing 'feel easy to go anywhere that feel good'. Use 'sit with their mothers and sisters' once. 'Find it easy to go anywhere' expresses ability comfortably. Use relative clause 'which feels good' to describe the result. Suggestion: simplify structure, avoid repetition, and use 'find it easy' and 'which feels good' for clarity.
