1 The candidate should have said more when
answering this question, such as saying why
she likes living there so much.
2 The candidate should have used past simple
rather than present perfect here, because she
said exactly when this happened. The
candidate should have said I moved.
3 This question requires you to speak
hypothetically. The candidate has made a
small error with the second conditional here.
The candidate should have said ‘if I lived … I
would buy’.

1 The candidate should have said ‘Yes, I do’
when giving a short answer to this question.
2 The candidate has made a collocation error.
The adverb ‘absolutely’ cannot be used with
‘like’, only with ‘love’. The candidate meant
to say ‘I absolutely love it’.
3 Although ‘dislike’ is possible, it is more
natural to say ‘I don’t like it’ or ‘I hate it’.
