Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be direct, use correct tense, expand slightly with one or two supporting details, and avoid filler words. Start with a clear topic sentence (e.g., “Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.”), then add a brief supporting detail such as who gave it to you, how you used it, or a memory, using a linking word if you add more information.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. It was a small red bicycle my parents bought me for my seventh birthday, and I used to ride it to school every day until I was twelve.

Gợi ý: Answer directly and avoid vague phrases like “not so.” Use a clearer judgment and provide a specific reason or example. Use a linking word (e.g., “however,” “but,” “because”) to connect your opinion and evidence. Be natural and concise (no more than 3–4 sentences).

Ví dụ: I don’t think bikes are very popular nationwide; however, they are common in some cities because many people use them for short trips and for exercise. For example, in my city you can often see cyclists commuting to work or riding along the riverside paths.

× Uh, yes, I have.

✓ Uh, yes, I did.

The question 'Did you have a bike when you were a child?' is in the past simple, so the student should answer using past tense. Using 'have' (present tense) is incorrect for a past situation. Use 'did' or 'I had' to match past tense; here 'I did' is a short answer meaning 'I had.'

× Uh, not so, but I see a lot of bikers roaming around our city.

✓ Uh, not really, but I see a lot of bikers riding around our city.

The examiner asked 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?' which is present simple. The phrase 'not so' is informal and uncommon; 'not really' is more natural. Also, 'roaming' is typically used for people or animals moving without purpose; for bicycles, 'riding' is more appropriate. Keep present simple ('I see') to match the question.
