Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 48.0Gợi ý: Improve grammar and tenses, make the answer concise and natural, and add one brief supporting detail. Use past tense for childhood, correct contractions, and give a clear reason with a linking word. For example, start with a topic sentence, then add a short reason introduced by 'because' or 'as'.
Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. My mother was worried about my safety, so she didn’t buy one for me.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 54.0Gợi ý: Fix grammar, use plural nouns and clearer linking words, and give one specific reason or example. Keep it to two sentences: a clear topic sentence stating your opinion, then a supporting detail with a specific example or comparison. Avoid redundancy and finish the sentence cleanly.
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are popular in Hong Kong because they are convenient for short trips. For instance, many people use bicycles to go to the market since they are cheaper and easier to park than cars.
× No I don't have a bike when I am child because I think my mum is worried about my healthy so she don't buy the bike for me.
✓ No. I didn't have a bike when I was a child because I think my mum was worried about my health, so she didn't buy a bike for me.
Errors: incorrect tense consistency and wrong word forms. Use past tense 'didn't have' and 'was' because the question asks about the past. 'When I am child' should be 'when I was a child' (past). 'My healthy' is incorrect word choice; use the noun 'health'. 'She don't' is subject-verb disagreement in past; use 'she didn't' for past negative. Also 'buy the bike for me' is awkward; 'buy a bike for me' is natural. Suggestion: maintain past tense throughout when talking about past events and choose correct nouns ('health') and articles ('a bike').
× Yes, I think bike is popular in Hong Kong because most Hong Kong people think back is more convenient and they want to use bike to buy something and also is cheaper to buy and.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in Hong Kong because most Hong Kong people think bikes are more convenient; they want to use them to buy things and they are also cheaper to buy.
Errors: incorrect singular/plural and missing verbs. 'Bike is popular' should be plural 'bikes are popular' to match general meaning. 'Most Hong Kong people' is fine but 'think back is more convenient' is incorrect word (back -> bike) and missing plural 'bikes'. Use 'bikes are more convenient'. 'They want to use bike to buy something' should be 'use them to buy things' (plural pronoun and plural noun). 'And also is cheaper to buy' lacks subject and needs 'they are also cheaper to buy'. Suggestions: use plural nouns and matching plural verbs for general statements (bikes are, they are), correct vocabulary ('bike' not 'back'), include subjects for clauses, and use plural pronouns when referring to plural nouns.
