Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 40.0Gợi ý: Be clear, grammatical and concise. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add 1–2 specific supporting details using linking words. Correct verb forms and word choice (e.g., 'rode' not 'drove', 'on weekends' not 'at the weekend' if you prefer American English, and avoid unclear words like 'Spike'). Keep to 2–4 short sentences and focus on what you did, who with, and how you felt.
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I often rode it on weekends with my family and friends, cycling around the neighborhood. It was great exercise and I enjoyed the freedom of exploring nearby parks.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 45.0Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion first, then support it with specific reasons and correct vocabulary. Use linking words (for example, 'because' or 'also') and correct collocations (e.g., 'bikes are popular', 'daily commute', 'cost of renting a bike is low', not 'slow'). Avoid repetition and keep sentences short and coherent.
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because many people use them for their daily commute. For example, they are cheap to rent and help avoid traffic, so cycling is often more convenient and comfortable than driving in busy cities.
× I had a bike when I was a child. I usually. Crawl drove the Spike at the weekend with my families and friends we often enjoy and enjoyable.
✓ I had a bike when I was a child. I usually rode the bike at the weekend with my family and friends; we often enjoyed it and found it enjoyable.
The sentence contains multiple tense and word choice errors. 'Crawl drove the Spike' is ungrammatical — likely intended 'rode the bike'. 'Usually' should be followed by a verb in the past tense 'rode' to match 'had' and 'was'. 'Families' should be singular 'family' when referring to one's own family. 'We often enjoy and enjoyable' mixes forms and tenses; use past tense 'enjoyed' and an adjective phrase 'found it enjoyable' or simply 'enjoyed it'. Suggestion: simplify into clear clauses, keep past tense consistent for childhood activities, use correct noun forms and parallel verb/adjective structures.
× Price are quite popular in my country, people use them for daily commute and it's quite convenient and cheap as the cost of renting a bike is quite slow and it's really comfortable.
✓ Bicycles are quite popular in my country; people use them for daily commuting, and they're convenient and cheap because the cost of renting a bike is low, so it is a comfortable option.
'Price are' is incorrect subject-verb agreement and wrong word choice — likely meant 'bicycles are'. 'Daily commute' should be the gerund phrase 'daily commuting' after 'use them for'. 'It's quite convenient and cheap' needs a clear subject 'they're' referring to bicycles. 'Cost...is quite slow' misuses 'slow' instead of 'low'. Also the sentence runs on; use punctuation or conjunctions to separate ideas. Suggestion: choose correct noun (bicycles), ensure verb agrees, use gerund for activities, and use appropriate adjectives ('low' for cost).
