Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the examiner's question directly and use the past tense because it refers to your childhood. Begin with a clear answer such as “Yes, I did” or “No, I didn’t,” and add one specific detail or reason. Avoid repeating the question or changing it into a different question.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bike when I was about seven years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends.

Gợi ý: Give a complete and grammatically accurate answer. Use the plural form “bikes are” and connect your supporting ideas with linking words such as “because” and “also.” Replace “old men” with the more natural phrase “older people,” and complete the final sentence by explaining how bikes are used. Add a specific example or result, while keeping the answer within four or five sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country because they are convenient and inexpensive. People of all ages, including children, adults, and older people, ride them for exercise and transportation. For example, many people cycle to work or use bikes to travel short distances.
