Điểm: 62.0Gợi ý: Reduce grammar and word-choice errors, make sentences more natural and concise, and correct unclear vocabulary. Start with a direct topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Pay attention to articles, prepositions, and correct word forms (e.g., 'rural place', 'public transport was limited', 'I appreciated it then').
Ví dụ: Yes. I had a bicycle when I was a child. I grew up in a rural area where public transport was limited, so I used my bike to get to school and the market every day. As a result, I became very comfortable cycling and used it for most short trips.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 48.0Gợi ý: Make your response clearer and more structured. Begin with a clear topic sentence that answers the question, then add one or two specific reasons or examples with linking words. Fix grammar (e.g., 'it depends on whether you are in the countryside or the city', 'in my city they are common in some areas', 'on certain streets there is no public transport'). Avoid repeating phrases and use precise vocabulary ('rural', 'route', 'area').
Ví dụ: It depends on the area. In the countryside bicycles are very common because public transport is scarce, while in big cities people often use buses or cars. For example, in my neighborhood many people rely on bikes for short trips because there are few bus routes on our street.
× I grew up in ruler place where a public transport was limited, so we needed to use bicycle to get to school and the market.
✓ I grew up in a rural place where public transport was limited, so we needed to use bicycles to get to school and the market.
Errors: 'ruler place' is wrong word choice and should be 'rural place'; 'a public transport' is incorrect because 'public transport' is an uncountable noun and should not take 'a'; 'use bicycle' needs plural or article: when speaking generally about using that mode, use plural 'bicycles' or 'a bicycle'. Suggestion: use 'a rural place' for correct adjective and article, drop 'a' before 'public transport', and use 'bicycles' to indicate general usage.
× I rode it every day and became quite comfortable cycling.
✓ I rode it every day and became quite comfortable cycling.
This sentence is grammatically correct for past tense context. 'Rode' and 'became' correctly match past narrative. Suggestion: no change needed.
× I appreciate that for now.
✓ I appreciate that now.
The phrase 'for now' is redundant with 'appreciate that' in this context and awkward. Use 'now' to indicate current appreciation. Also consider 'I appreciate that' could be ambiguous; if intended to say 'I appreciate that fact now' then 'I appreciate that now' is clearer.
× I think it's depend the countryside or city, but from in my city it's a kind of ruler.
✓ I think it depends on whether someone lives in the countryside or the city, but in my city it is different.
Errors: 'it's depend' needs third-person singular present 'it depends' (subject-verb agreement). 'depend the' requires preposition 'depend on'. 'from in my city' is incorrect preposition usage; use 'in my city'. 'a kind of ruler' is incorrect word choice; likely meant 'different' or 'uncommon'. Suggestion: use 'it depends on whether' and 'in my city it is different' for clarity.
× So we need to use. We need to use bicycle because we don't have any transportation in the Detail Rd.
✓ So we need to use bicycles because we don't have any transportation on Detail Road.
Errors: Fragment 'So we need to use.' is incomplete; combine into full sentence. 'use bicycle' should be 'use bicycles' for general statement. 'in the Detail Rd' has incorrect preposition and article; use 'on Detail Road' or 'on Detail Rd'. Also 'Road' should be capitalized as part of a street name. Suggestion: combine fragments, use plural 'bicycles', and correct preposition to 'on' for roads; omit unnecessary 'the' before a street name.
