Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the examiner’s question directly instead of asking a different question. Begin with a clear response such as “Yes, I did” or “No, I didn’t,” and then add one relevant detail. Also, “bike” and “bath” have completely different meanings, so listen carefully and check the key noun before answering.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. I had a small blue bike when I was about seven years old, and I often rode it around my neighborhood with my friends.

Gợi ý: Your answer is direct and includes a reason, but “playing bikes” is not natural English; say “riding bikes” or “cycling.” Also, “spend most of their time” may be too strong unless you mean this literally. Add a specific detail, such as where children ride or why bikes are popular, and use a linking word such as “because” or “for example.”

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are very popular in my country, especially among children. Many kids ride their bikes in the evening because the weather is cooler and they can spend time with their friends. For example, they often cycle around their neighborhoods or in nearby parks.

× Kids usually spend most of their time playing bikes in the evening with their friends.

✓ Kids usually spend most of their time riding bikes in the evening with their friends.

The structure spend time + verb-ing is correct, but play is not the appropriate verb for bikes. We normally say ride bikes, so riding should be used here. The first student sentence, Did you have a bath when you were a child?, is grammatically correct but does not answer the examiner's question about having a bike.
