Điểm: 45.0Gợi ý: 간결하고 자연스러운 문장 구조를 사용하세요. 현재 답변은 불필요한 말더듬(umm)과 어색한 표현(about to ride a bike)이 포함되어 있고, 직접적인 주제문 뒤에 구체적 이유와 한두 개의 상세한 정보(예: 몇 살 때였는지, 누가 가르쳐줬는지 등)를 연결해서 말하는 연습이 필요합니다. 또한 문장 길이는 2~3문장으로 유지하고 연결어(for example, so, because)를 적절히 사용하세요.
Ví dụ: No, I didn't. I was quite nervous about riding a bike when I was a child because I fell off once at age six. As a result, I avoided cycling until I was older, and only learned again with a friend's help.

Điểm: 40.0Gợi ý: 명확한 주제문으로 시작한 다음 구체적인 관찰이나 이유를 덧붙이세요. 현재 답변은 중복(ride bike bikes), 말더듬(uh)과 시제 오류(recently I didn't see)를 있어 이해하기 어렵습니다. 더 자연스럽게는 현재 시제나 최근 관찰을 연결하여 이유(traffic, more cars, helmets laws 등)를 설명하면 좋습니다. 연결어(however, but, recently)도 정확히 쓰세요.
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are generally popular in my country. However, recently I have noticed fewer children cycling in cities, probably because of increased traffic and more parents driving their kids to school.

✓ No, I didn't because, umm, when I was young I was so nervous about riding a bike.
The phrase 'nervous about to ride' is incorrect in English. After adjectives like 'nervous about,' a gerund (verb + -ing) is required, not an infinitive with to. Use 'riding' to form a correct gerund phrase: 'nervous about riding a bike.' This fixes the verb form error and makes the sentence natural.
× Yes, I think so, but recently I didn't see a uh, to ride bike bikes, children, uh.
✓ Yes, I think so, but recently I haven't seen children riding bikes.
The original mixes tenses and incorrect verb forms. 'Recently' with a past experience that has relevance to now requires present perfect ('haven't seen') rather than simple past ('didn't see'). Also, 'to ride bike bikes, children' is ungrammatical: use the gerund 'riding' and the correct plural noun order 'children riding bikes.' Reordering yields a clear, grammatically correct sentence.
