Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 35.0Gợi ý: Câu trả lời có ý trả lời trực tiếp nhưng còn nhiều từ ngập ngừng và bị bỏ dở. Cần sửa “when I were” thành “when I was”, “part to me” thành “bought me”, và “pink pie” thành “pink bike”. Em nên nói một câu chủ đề rõ ràng, sau đó thêm lý do hoặc chi tiết cụ thể như thời điểm, màu sắc và cách em sử dụng chiếc xe. Hãy tránh lặp “umm” và kết thúc câu đầy đủ.
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was seven years old. My mother bought me a pink bike for my birthday, and I was really excited about it. I used to ride it around my neighborhood with my friends after school.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 40.0Gợi ý: Em đã đưa ra câu trả lời trực tiếp và có lý do, nhưng cần sửa “my countries” thành “my country”, “students are student always use” thành “students often use bikes”, và “pie” thành “bike”. Câu trả lời nên có cấu trúc rõ ràng: ý kiến, lý do, rồi ví dụ hoặc kết quả. Em cũng cần dùng từ nối như “because” hoặc “in addition” một cách tự nhiên, đồng thời tránh lặp từ và kết thúc câu dang dở. Nên nói cụ thể rằng xe đạp giúp học sinh đi học thuận tiện, tiết kiệm và tránh tắc đường.
Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students. Many students ride them to school because they are affordable and convenient. In addition, bikes are useful for avoiding traffic jams in crowded cities.
× when I were a child
✓ when I was a child
The sentence refers to a past situation, so the past-tense form was must be used with the subject I. Were is used with you, we, and they in the simple past.
× my mom, umm, part to me, uh, a pink pie
✓ my mom bought me a pink bike
The verb should be in the simple past because the speaker is describing a childhood event. Bought is the past-tense form of buy. Me is placed after bought to show the recipient, and bike is the appropriate noun in this context.
× bikes are popular in my countries
✓ bikes are popular in my country
The speaker is referring to one country, so the singular noun country is needed. Countries is the plural form and refers to more than one country.
× students are student always use pie to go to school
✓ students always use bikes to go to school
Student is unnecessarily repeated, and are cannot be used directly before the base verb use in this sentence. The simple present structure students use is correct for describing a regular activity.
× students are student always use pie to go to school
✓ students always use bikes to go to school
The adverb always should normally be placed before the main verb use in the simple present. The corrected word order is students always use bikes.
