Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Use the past tense consistently: say “I did have” or, more naturally, “I had.” Add one or two specific details, such as when you used the bike, where you rode it, or how you felt about it. A clear topic sentence followed by a supporting detail would make the answer more complete and effective.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I usually rode it around my neighborhood after school, and I really enjoyed exploring the area with my friends.

Gợi ý: Although “Absolutely” directly answers the question, it is too brief for a strong IELTS Part 1 response. Explain why bikes are popular and include a specific example, such as their use for commuting, exercise, or environmental reasons. Use a linking word such as “because” or “also” to connect your ideas naturally.

Ví dụ: Yes, definitely. Bikes are quite popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys. Many people also ride them for exercise, especially in parks and residential areas.

× Yes, I do have a bike when I was a child.

✓ Yes, I had a bike when I was a child.

The question asks about a past situation, and the time expression when I was a child refers to the past. Therefore, use the simple past form had, not the present-tense form do have. To improve, match the tense of your answer to the time reference in the question.
