Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be direct, use correct tense and fewer fillers. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one brief supporting detail using linking words. Correct tense: use past simple for past facts. Reduce hesitation words (umm, gonna) and avoid contractions in formal speech.

Ví dụ: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. Although many of my friends rode bikes, I preferred walking because my family lived close to school and it was safer.

Gợi ý: Give a clear opinion, use correct grammar and linking words, and add a specific reason or example. Use present simple for general facts. Avoid repeating 'I think' and reduce fillers.

Ví dụ: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country. For example, many people use them for short trips and commuting because they are cheap, easy to park and often faster than cars in congested cities.

× Umm, no I haven't because umm, when I was child.

✓ Umm, no I didn't because when I was a child.

The question asks about a past situation ('when you were a child'), so the past simple tense should be used. 'I haven't' is present perfect and does not match the past time expression. Also 'when I was child' is missing the article 'a'. Use 'I didn't' to negate a past action and include 'a' before 'child'. Suggestion: Use past simple for completed past actions and include articles where required.

× I'm not gonna like riding bike.

✓ I didn't like riding a bike.

The student intended to refer to a past habit or preference. 'I'm not gonna like' is an informal future construction and does not fit the past context. Use past simple 'I didn't like'. Also 'riding bike' needs the article 'a' before 'bike'. Suggestion: For past dislikes use 'didn't like'. Avoid informal contractions like 'gonna' in formal speech.

× Umm yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because umm, I think umm when I was go somewhere bike is more convenient.

✓ Umm yes, I think bikes are popular in my country because when I go somewhere a bike is more convenient.

The sentence mixes past ('when I was') with present habitual meaning. Since the student is giving a general opinion about current habits, use present simple 'when I go'. Also 'bike' needs the article 'a' when singular countable: 'a bike'. Remove redundant 'I think' to improve clarity. Suggestion: Use present simple for general truths or habitual actions (I go, a bike is), and include articles with singular countable nouns.
