Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Câu trả lời trực tiếp và có nhiều chi tiết cụ thể, nhưng có một số lỗi ngữ pháp và cách diễn đạt chưa tự nhiên. Hãy dùng “I was four” thay vì “I was 4”, tránh lặp từ “two small”, và nói “to help me keep my balance”. Cụm “my dad bought it to me” nên sửa thành “my dad bought it for me”. Bạn cũng nên chia câu dài thành hai câu và dùng từ nối như “At that age” hoặc “Also” để câu trả lời rõ ràng hơn.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a red bike when I was four, with two large wheels and two small training wheels at the sides to help me keep my balance. My dad bought it for me, and I really enjoyed riding it around my neighborhood.

Gợi ý: Câu trả lời có cấu trúc tốt, nêu rõ sự thay đổi theo thời gian và đưa ra lý do phù hợp. Tuy nhiên, “not as popular as they are used to be” cần sửa thành “not as popular as they used to be”. Cụm “When I remember when I was a child” bị lặp ý; nên dùng “I remember that when I was a child”. Ngoài ra, “the vehicles” hơi chung chung, nên thay bằng “motorbikes and cars” hoặc “these vehicles” để diễn đạt tự nhiên hơn.

Ví dụ: Bikes are not as popular as they used to be in my country. I remember that when I was a child, there were many bicycles on the streets. However, they have largely been replaced by motorbikes and cars because these vehicles are faster and more convenient for commuting in cities.
