Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the question directly in the past tense. Do not repeat or change the examiner’s question. Begin with a clear topic sentence, such as “Yes, I did” or “No, I didn’t,” and add one specific detail about the bike or how you used it. Remember to use “when I was a child,” not “when you are child.”

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

Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion about bike popularity and support it with a relevant reason or example. The phrase “They’ll sink” is unrelated to the question, and “in your country” should be changed to “in my country” when describing your own country. Use linking words such as “because” or “for example” to make your answer coherent.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, especially among students and young adults. This is because they are affordable and convenient for short journeys, although traffic can make cycling difficult in large cities.

× Do you have a bike when you are child?

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

The question asks about a past time, so use the past-tense auxiliary did and the past form were. Because did already marks the past tense, the main verb have stays in its base form. The phrase when you are child should also be when you were a child.

× Do you have a bike when you are child?

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

The singular countable noun child requires the indefinite article a. Say a child, not child. The corrected sentence also uses past tense because the examiner asks about the student's childhood.

× They'll sink. Bikes are popular in your country.

✓ I think bikes are popular in my country.

The pronoun your refers to the person being addressed, but the student should use my when talking about the student's own country. I think also gives a clear answer to the question. They'll sink is grammatically possible, but it does not answer the examiner's question, so it should be replaced with I think.
