Part 1
考官
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
考生
Yes, of course. When I was like 6 years old, I began to learn how to ride a bike. So yeah, that's when I when I had my first bike.
考官
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
考生
Not really. You know, China is a really big export country for, umm, electric vehicles, so of course we do also have a lot of that here. So most people would choose to drive a car instead of instead of riding a bike. Plus the traffic rules isn't that complete I'd say.
Did you have a bike when you were a child?
分數: 76.0建議: Your answer is clear and relevant, but has some hesitations and repetition. To improve, give a concise topic sentence, avoid filler words (like “like” and repeated phrases), and add one specific detail (e.g., where you learned or a memorable moment) using a linking word to connect ideas.
範例: Yes, I did. I got my first bike at six and learned to ride it in my neighborhood park. Because my parents encouraged me, I practiced every afternoon and soon could ride without training wheels.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
分數: 68.0建議: Your answer addresses the question but contains hesitations, unclear phrasing, and grammar errors. Improve by giving a direct topic sentence, using linking words (for example, 'however' or 'because'), correcting grammar (e.g., 'rules aren't complete'), and adding one specific supporting detail or statistic if possible.
範例: Not really. Although bicycles were once common, nowadays people prefer electric scooters and cars because they are faster and more convenient. For example, in many cities there are more electric bikes and cars than regular bicycles, and traffic regulations for cyclists are still underdeveloped.
× When I was like 6 years old, I began to learn how to ride a bike.
✓ When I was about 6 years old, I began learning how to ride a bike.
Use of 'began to learn' is not incorrect, but 'began learning' is a more natural collocation with ongoing skill acquisition; this involves the present participle form after 'began'. Suggest using 'about' instead of 'like' for more formal speech.
× So yeah, that's when I when I had my first bike.
✓ So yeah, that's when I had my first bike.
The sentence contains a repeated phrase 'when I' creating a redundancy and disrupting sentence structure. Remove the duplicated words to form a correct, fluent sentence.
× Plus the traffic rules isn't that complete I'd say.
✓ Plus the traffic rules aren't that complete, I'd say.
The subject 'the traffic rules' is plural, so the verb must agree as 'aren't' (are not), not 'isn't'. Also add a comma before the tag 'I'd say' for clarity.
