Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your response repeats the examiner's question instead of answering. To improve, answer directly with a clear topic sentence (yes/no), then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it natural and under five sentences. For example, say whether you had a bike, mention when and how often you rode it, and add a brief reason or memory to enrich the answer.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I got it for my eighth birthday and rode it around my neighborhood almost every day. As a result, I became quite confident cycling and even joined a small kids’ cycling group on weekends.

Gợi ý: Your answer is ungrammatical and again repeats the examiner's question. Improve by answering directly (state your opinion), then provide specific supporting details and use linking words to connect ideas. Mention factors such as transport, environment, or culture to make your response concrete and relevant. Keep it concise and natural.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are becoming more popular in my country. For instance, many cities have added bike lanes and shared-bike schemes, so more people use bicycles for short trips. Moreover, with rising traffic and pollution, cycling is seen as a cheaper and greener option.

× Do you think biker popular in your country?

✓ Do you think bikes are popular in your country?

The original sentence has multiple issues: a subject form and missing verb form. 'biker' (singular noun meaning a person) is incorrect in this question context; the intended subject is the general noun 'bikes' (plural). Also the verb 'are' (third person plural of 'to be') is missing. This fits Third person singular issue (ID 2) because the verb form must agree with the subject; here the correct agreement uses the plural 'are' with 'bikes'. To improve, choose the correct noun number (singular vs plural) to match meaning and include the appropriate form of the verb 'to be' (are/is) after the subject when forming questions about popularity. Use: 'Do you think bikes are popular in your country?'.

× Did you have a bike when you were a child?

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The student's reply repeated the examiner's question instead of answering. This is a sentence structure and pragmatic error (ID 26) because a full declarative answer to a past-tense question requires a past-tense verb and subject. Use the past simple 'had' to answer 'Did you have...?' and include the subject 'I'. For example: 'Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.' If the student did not have one, use: 'No, I didn't have a bike when I was a child.'
