Great video! Really taking the time to explain and show how to take on the exam. Im going to use these tips and tricks for sure tomorrow at my exam. Thank you!
I find part 4 somewhat unfair. Often times I come up with an answer that, in my view, could be appropriate. They narrow down the answers while in reality much more could be accepted. For instance, in the 2nd sentence, couldn't we say 'It's unlikely that Jo will move from the city as she loves living there.'?
That is a good point, but the problem with your sentence is that if you just say 'move from the city', I would expect that you say where to. To make your version mean the same as the first sentence you would have to say 'move away from the city' and that would get you over the word limit. I know that it can sometimes be frustrating, but if there are several possible answers, Cambridge accept them all - I promise. :)
@teacherphill thanks for the insight on the feeling of this verb collocation! About the correction, is it simply made by a program or is it checked by a human so more answers can be accepted?
1:08:39 this, what you have done is literally impossible to think about, you literally wrote in every gap what you need to put in it. I can't understand how could someone recongize that. Also, all this would take us 10mins... its not good, im grateful for many other videos of you trying to help us but this part 7 of reading and use of english just does not make any sense.
I'm not sure if I understand what you mean. I summarised each paragraph in a couple of words and that's it. What I wrote in the gaps are the summaries of the following paragraphs. I don't know why you wouldn't be able to do the same. :)

You're welcome. :)
I think that in part six, the last answer should be D?
Yes, you are right. I made a mistake there. :)
