Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: You did not answer the examiner's question; instead, you repeated it with an incorrect phrase. Use “when you were a child,” not “when you were the child,” and give a direct answer followed by one specific detail. For example, mention whether you had a bike and explain how you used it.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I usually rode it around my neighborhood with my friends after school.

Gợi ý: Your answer is grammatically correct, but it is too short and does not provide any supporting details. Give a clear reason and, if possible, add a specific example or comparison using a linking word such as “because” or “for example.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I do. Bikes are quite popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys. For example, many people ride them to school or work.

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

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

Use the indefinite article a before child because the sentence refers to the speaker's general period of childhood, not to one specific, previously identified child. Say a child, not the child, in this expression.
