Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Answer the examiner’s question directly instead of repeating it. Say whether you had a bike, then add one relevant detail, such as who bought it or where you rode it.

Ví dụ: Yes, I did. My parents bought me a small blue bike when I was about seven, and I used to ride it around our neighborhood.

Gợi ý: Your answer is relevant, but it repeats the point that people cannot afford cars. Use more natural phrasing, such as “because” instead of “cause,” and add a specific example of how people use bikes. Avoid fillers like “like.”

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country, partly because they are much more affordable than cars. Many people use them for short trips to work or to local shops, especially in busy cities where traffic can be heavy.

× Yes I think bikes are popular in my country cause most of the people own bikes instead of like expensive cars.

✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because most people own bikes instead of owning expensive cars.

After instead of, use a noun or a verb ending in -ing. In this sentence, owning creates a parallel comparison with own bikes. Because is also more appropriate than the informal cause in this response.

× Also because of the economic status of my country and also because most people cannot afford expensive cars.

✓ This is also because of my country's economic situation and because most people cannot afford expensive cars.

The original is a sentence fragment: it begins with Also because of but does not have an independent main clause. Connect the reason to a main clause, or add a main clause such as This is also because.
