Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer directly, then give one or two relevant details. Keep the story in the past tense: use “I got” rather than “I have gotten,” and “I rode” rather than “I were riding.” Replace “in a correct way” with the more natural phrase “properly.” Try to avoid fillers and self-corrections.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike as a child. My father taught me how to ride it properly, and I often rode it with my brother during the summer.

Gợi ý: Start with a clear answer, using “Yes, I think they are.” Make sure the subject and verb agree: “bikes are popular” and “most people don’t have.” Explain your reason without repeating or restarting phrases, and replace the unclear ending “just like it was” with a specific detail about how people use bikes.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. Many people use them for short trips because they are much cheaper than cars. They are also convenient for getting around busy streets.
