Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Câu trả lời có ý trả lời trực tiếp nhưng chưa hoàn chỉnh và dùng sai thì: khi kể về thời thơ ấu, hãy dùng quá khứ “had”. Cụm “back when I was” cần có phần bổ sung, chẳng hạn “back when I was a child”. Hãy trả lời thành câu đầy đủ và thêm một chi tiết cụ thể về chiếc xe đạp.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had three bikes when I was a child. I used to ride one around my neighborhood after school.

Gợi ý: Hãy dùng hiện tại đơn để nói về mức độ phổ biến hiện nay. “I will be popular” có nghĩa là “tôi sẽ nổi tiếng”; chủ ngữ cần là “bikes”, và không cần dùng “will” trong câu hỏi này. Có thể nêu một lý do hoặc ví dụ để phát triển câu trả lời.

Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, especially in smaller towns. They’re an affordable and convenient way to get around.

× Yes, I have 3 back when I was.

✓ Yes, I had three when I was a child.

The question asks about the past, so use the past-tense verb had rather than the present-tense verb have. Spell out three in formal writing.

× Yes, I have 3 back when I was.

✓ Yes, I had three when I was a child.

The phrase when I was is incomplete because it does not say what the speaker was. Add a complement, such as a child, to make the sentence complete.

× Yes, I think I will be popular in my country.

✓ Yes, I think they are popular in my country.

The pronoun I refers to the speaker, but the question is about bikes. Use they to refer to bikes.

× Yes, I think I will be popular in my country.

✓ Yes, I think they are popular in my country.

The question asks whether bikes are popular now, so use the present-tense verb are rather than the future form will be.
