Điểm: 25.0Gợi ý: Bạn đã lặp lại câu hỏi của người thi thay vì trả lời. Cần trả lời trực tiếp, dùng câu chủ đề ngắn gọn, cung cấp 1–2 chi tiết hỗ trợ (vd. ai cho, khi nào, tần suất dùng) và dùng liên từ nếu cần. Giữ tối đa 5 câu, từ vựng phù hợp với chủ đề (childhood, bicycle, ride, neighborhood).
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was about eight. My parents bought it for me for my birthday, and I used to ride it to visit friends in the neighborhood every afternoon. It was a small red bicycle with a basket, which made it very special to me.

Điểm: 20.0Gợi ý: Câu trả lời của bạn là lặp lại và có lỗi chính tả/thu âm (buys vs bikes). Cần trả lời trực tiếp, đưa ra quan điểm rõ ràng và ít nhất một lý do hoặc ví dụ cụ thể (ví dụ: giao thông, sức khỏe, vận chuyển công cộng). Dùng liên từ để nối ý và giới hạn trong tối đa 5 câu.
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bicycles are quite popular in my country, especially in smaller towns and among students. Many people use bikes for short trips because they are cheap and convenient, and there are also more bike lanes in some cities now. However, in big cities cars and motorbikes are still more common for long distances.

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
The student used 'buys' which is a verb meaning 'purchases' instead of the noun 'bikes'. This is a word choice/spelling error. The question should mirror the examiner's original: 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' Suggestion: pay attention to similarly spelled words and confirm whether the intended word is a noun or verb; practice minimal pair recognition and proofread for typos.
