Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 58.0Gợi ý: Your answer is grammatically correct but too brief and lacks supporting details. To improve, start with a direct response, then add 1–2 specific details (what kind of bike, how often you used it, who taught you, a short memory) linked with a simple connector (for example, "and", "because", "when"). Keep it natural and avoid repetition. Aim for 2–4 sentences total.
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a small red bike when I was a child, and I rode it almost every day after school. My older brother taught me to cycle in our neighborhood park, which helped me gain confidence quickly.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: The reply answers the question but is too general. Improve by giving a brief reason or example to justify your opinion, using a linking word such as "because" or "for example."

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise. For example, students often cycle to school and city residents use shared bikes for quick trips.
