Điểm: 56.0Gợi ý: Melhore a clareza e a correção gramatical. Evite repetições e termine a ideia: use tempo verbal consistente (por exemplo, passado simples) e uma frase-tópico clara seguida de detalhes específicos. Use conectores simples para ligar as ideias e limite-se a 3–4 frases para ficar natural. Por exemplo, troque “I have a lot of bikes” por “I had several bikes” e corrija “My dad's giving me” para “my father used to give me”.
Ví dụ: Yes. I had several bikes when I was a child. My father used to buy me a new bicycle almost every year because I loved riding and practiced a lot. As a result, I became quite confident cycling on busy streets and trails.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 50.0Gợi ý: Aprimore a coerência e a precisão. Organize a resposta com uma frase direta sobre popularidade, seguida de 1–2 razões específicas usando conectores (for example, because, therefore). Evite hesitações e repetições (uh, it's). Use vocabulário relevante como "infrastructure", "bike lanes", "urban" e estruturas como "not very popular" ou "less common".
Ví dụ: Not very popular, in my opinion. In my state, people prefer cars and motorcycles because the infrastructure for cycling is poor — there are few bike lanes and roads can be unsafe. Therefore, cycling is mostly for leisure rather than daily transport.
× Sure, sure. I have a lot of bikes.
✓ Sure, sure. I had a lot of bikes.
The question asks about the past ('when you were a child'), so the student should use past tense. Change 'have' (present) to 'had' (past simple) to match the time reference.
× I remember that when I was a kid, I got a new bicycle each year from my father.
✓ I remember that when I was a kid, I received a new bicycle every year from my father.
'Got' is informal but acceptable; however, 'received' is more appropriate in this context. Also 'each year' can be 'every year'. The verb should remain past simple to refer to past repeated actions.
× My dad's giving me a lot of bikes because I, I, I, I was a very intensive and.
✓ My dad gave me a lot of bikes because I was very energetic as a child.
The original mixes present continuous 'dad's giving' with past context. Use past simple 'gave'. 'Intensive' is incorrect for describing a child's behavior; 'energetic' is correct. Also complete the sentence with 'as a child' to clarify.
× Uh, no, not too much because in my, in my country, in my state, for example, it's more common years, uh, a car or motorcycle, uh, because it's, it's more complicated.
✓ Uh, no, not really, because in my country, in my state, for example, it is more common to have a car or a motorcycle, because it's more practical.
The phrase 'more common years' is ungrammatical; use 'more common to have'. Also 'complicated' is likely the wrong adjective; 'practical' fits the intended meaning. Use present simple 'is' for general statements.
× Use a bicycle here because we, we didn't have a lot of, uh, pathways to, to, to ride the bike.
✓ Use a bicycle here because we don't have many bike paths to ride on.
Tense consistency: general present 'don't have' better than past 'didn't have' when speaking about current infrastructure. 'Pathways to, to, to ride the bike' is awkward; 'bike paths' and 'ride on' are correct. Also replace 'a lot of' with 'many' for countable plural.
× It's, it's a very complicated. It's only, uh, in front of the.
✓ It's very complicated. There are only a few places, like in front of the school or shops, where you can ride a bike.
'It's a very complicated' is ungrammatical; 'complicated' needs a noun or should be 'It's very complicated.' The fragment 'It's only... in front of the.' is incomplete. Provide a complete clause explaining limited locations; use 'There are only a few places' for clarity.
