Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 55.0Gợi ý: “I heard I had” ifadesi burada yanlış; geçmişte sahip olduğunuz bir şeyi anlatırken “I had” kullanmalısınız. Ayrıca bisiklet için “tool” doğal değildir; “bike” veya “bicycle” kelimelerini tekrar kullanabilirsiniz. Cevabınızı doğrudan verin ve bir destekleyici ayrıntı ekleyin; örneğin bisikleti nerede kullandığınızı veya neden sevdiğinizi belirtin.
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, and I loved riding it. I usually cycled around my neighborhood with my friends after school.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 62.0Gợi ý: Cevabınızda “probably yes”, “maybe” ve “absolutely yes” ifadelerini art arda kullanmanız kararsız ve tekrarlı bir izlenim yaratıyor. Bunun yerine net bir konu cümlesi kurun ve ardından “especially” veya “because” ile belirli bir ayrıntı ekleyin. Baku’daki bisiklet kullanımının neden popüler olduğunu ya da hangi gruplar arasında yaygın olduğunu açıklarsanız içerik ve akıcılık güçlenir.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child, and I loved riding it.
The pronoun it should refer back to the bike. This tool is not an appropriate reference because a bike is not normally called a tool. Also, heard is unnecessary here and changes the meaning to hearing information from someone. Use I had a bike to answer the question directly.
