1. Which phrase signals that you are about to justify your opinion?
'The reason I think this is...' explicitly introduces the justification or evidence for your view.
2. A candidate answers an APTIS Speaking question with only five words. How will this likely affect their score?
APTIS Speaking tasks are scored on quantity and quality of language produced — very short responses limit opportunities to demonstrate ability.

'To sum up my view' signals that the speaker is wrapping up and restating their main position at the end of a longer response.
4. Which element is MOST important when writing a call-to-action (CTA) for a social media post?
An effective CTA tells readers exactly what to do next — 'Shop now,' 'Learn more,' or 'Tag a friend' — leaving no ambiguity.

Adverbs of more than two syllables use 'more' for comparative form.
