For question 2 and 4 its all about how you word and explain your points. Some people use the PEE or PEA or PEAL, I personally use PEEZLE: Point Evidence Explanation Zoom (zoom back in to text) Analyse Link (link back to original point or question)
Try using that, and if you're still struggling, check out some vids on youtube, they sometimes help.
Try your best not to blab throughout your answer, it should be nicely structured and flow smoothly, but also keep in mind the time limit
Remember, its not quantity but the quality!
As for question 4, i also struggle getting the higher grades, just keep trying!

I love how we immediately assume that he is with AQA and don't ask what awarding body he's with.

Assuming the gender of the original poster (which I'll edit now, as I tend to be neutral) is not as important as potentially guiding the user down a misleading route.
