Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your response repeats the examiner's question instead of answering. For a higher score, answer directly with a clear topic sentence, add one or two specific supporting details using linking words, keep it natural and concise (no more than 5 sentences), and use appropriate past-tense vocabulary.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a small red bicycle with training wheels when I was about six, and I learned to ride it in the park near my house. Because my parents encouraged me, I practiced every weekend and became confident enough to ride without help by the time I was eight.

Gợi ý: Again you repeated the examiner's question instead of giving your opinion. To improve, state your opinion clearly, support it with a specific reason or example, use linking words (for example, however, because), and keep answers concise and natural.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country because many people use them for short trips and exercise. For example, in cities there are bike lanes and shared-bike schemes, so commuting by bike has become more common in recent years.

× Do you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?

The question refers to a past time frame ('when you were a child'), so the past simple tense is required. 'Do you have' is present simple and does not match the past context. Use 'Did you have' to form a correct past simple question. Suggestion: use the auxiliary 'did' + base verb for yes/no questions about past events (Did + subject + have).

× Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

This sentence is grammatically correct: it uses present simple to ask about a general opinion or present situation. No change is needed. Suggestion: keep present simple for general beliefs or facts (Do you think + clause).
