Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 20.0Gợi ý: 質問をそのまま繰り返すだけになっており、回答として成立していません。IELTSでは受け答えは直接的に行い、主題文(Yes/Noなど)を述べ、その後に簡潔な理由や具体例を続ける必要があります。文法も不完全なので、過去形や冠詞(a/the/your)に注意してください。例を用いて具体性を出し、接続詞(because, so, when)で文をつなげましょう。
Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a red bicycle when I was about eight, and I used to ride it to my friend's house every weekend because it was faster than walking.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 25.0Gợi ý: これも質問の反復になっており、意見表明がありません。まず直接的に意見(Yes/No or I think...)を述べ、その後に理由や具体例を付けることで説得力を高めてください。語彙は簡潔で十分なので、'popular, common, used for commuting, recreation' などの語を文脈に合わせて使い、接続語(because, however, for example)で詳細をつなぎましょう。
Ví dụ: I think bikes are fairly popular in my country because many people use them for short commutes and exercise; for example, in cities there are dedicated bike lanes and rental schemes that encourage cycling.

✓ Did you have a bike when you were a child?
The noun 'child' here needs the definite article 'a' to form the common expression 'when you were a child'. Without the article the phrase is ungrammatical. Use 'a child' to refer to the general period of childhood. Suggestion: Insert the article 'a' before 'child' in this fixed time-expression.
