Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I got my first bike when I was seven, and my parents taught me to ride it in the park. I used it to visit friends and to go to school during the summer, so it became an important part of my childhood.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: La réponse manque de précision, contient des hésitations et une petite erreur grammaticale. Commencez par une phrase claire (opinion), puis expliquez brièvement pourquoi en donnant des raisons spécifiques et un exemple. Évitez les hésitations et corrigez l’accord sujet/verbe. Utilisez un mot de liaison pour introduire la cause (par exemple "because" ou "mainly").
Ví dụ: Not really. Most people prefer cars because city distances are long and public transport is limited, so cycling is less practical. For example, my neighbours mostly drive to work even for short trips.
× No, it isn't popular in my country.
✓ No, they aren't popular in my country.
The student uses the singular pronoun 'it' to refer to 'bikes', which is plural. Use the plural pronoun 'they' and the plural verb 'aren't' to agree with the plural noun. Suggestion: identify the noun being referred to and match pronoun number and verb number accordingly.
× Uh, they moved with, uh, with cars.
✓ Uh, people moved around by car.
'They moved with cars' is awkward and causes agreement and preposition issues. If 'they' refers to people generally, use 'people' or 'they' with 'moved around' and the correct preposition 'by' for transportation. Use singular 'car' after 'by' or 'cars' after 'in' depending on meaning. Suggestion: use 'people moved around by car' or 'they used cars' to express habitual past or present usage; in context of present popularity, use present simple: 'people move around by car' or 'they use cars'.
