Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer directly in the past tense because the question asks about your childhood. Avoid repeating the same idea and correct the grammar: use “I had a bike,” “my school was quite far away,” and “I needed it.” You could also add one specific detail about how often you used it or why it was convenient.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. My school was quite far from my home, so I needed it to get there every day. It was convenient because I didn’t have to wait for a bus.

Gợi ý: State your opinion clearly and avoid fillers and repetition such as “uh” and “because.” Use a natural plural form, such as “Bikes are quite popular,” and explain why with specific reasons, for example, that they are affordable, convenient, and environmentally friendly. Mentioning your hometown is useful, but the answer should focus on your country if that is what the examiner asks about.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in smaller towns and cities. They are affordable and convenient for short journeys, and they also help people avoid traffic. In my hometown, many students and workers use them every day.

× Yeah, I have a bike.

✓ Yeah, I had a bike.

The question asks about a past time, when you were a child, so the past-tense form had is required instead of the present-tense form have.

× I had a bike because my school is very too far, so I need a bicycle.

✓ I had a bike because my school was too far, so I needed a bicycle.

Because you are describing your childhood, the past-tense forms was and needed should be used instead of the present-tense forms is and need.

× I had a bike because my school is very too far, so I need a bicycle.

✓ I had a bike because my school was too far, so I needed a bicycle.

Very and too should not be used together before far in this sentence. Use too far to mean that the distance was greater than was convenient or acceptable.

× This is, uh, the bike is very popular in my hometown because, because it's very useful to our people.

✓ Yes, I do. Bikes are very popular in my hometown because they are very useful for people.

The original sentence contains two subjects and two main verbs in the opening phrase: This is and the bike is. Use one clear subject and verb. Also, avoid repeating because and use they to refer to the plural noun bikes.

× This is, uh, the bike is very popular in my hometown because, because it's very useful to our people.

✓ Yes, I do. Bikes are very popular in my hometown because they are very useful for people.

The preposition for is more natural than to after useful when referring to the people who benefit from something. The usual phrase is useful for people.
