They want to find out if you're having any problems now.
In other words, personality or management issues.
Which might mean you are trying to avoid problems.
What you need is a positive reason for changing company.
e.g. seeking greater opportunity or challenge.

find the differences between the companies, don't say anything bad about yours, but talk about things like location, is the new company international? is the new company bigger? smaller? if it's smaller, then you could say something like I want more hands on experience that I know I could get a smaller company. You can also mention great things you've heard about the place, etc. But you absolutely don't want to speak poorly of your current job/company

From my research the corporate culture at your company is preferable to my current employer. The opportunities are there, but I don't feel the management style is a good fit for my skills and personality.

I agree to keep it positive. There can be many reasons. Better or different opportunities, location, someone at the new company that you admire and want to work under....lots of positive reasons.

I am at the top of my current position, both in knowledge and in what my current employer can offer me to expand my knowledge in this industry. I am looking to stay within the same industry, an industry where I have a large amount of expertise. In order to broaden my knowledge of this industry I need to become affiliated with a company, like yours, that is considered to be among the top in this industry.
I think this answers both questions.

You can tell them anything you want. It could be because there was no growth potential in current company or you wanted a better salary with benefits.
It doesn't matter. They're not going to go to your current boss and ask why?
Just as long as you answer the
question in a professional matter and you believe it to be true. You'll be fine.
-Good Luck

You can say that the atmosphere at your current job is unpleasent and you are looking for something new.
Also you can say that you live closer to that place and thats why you want to switch.

I don't think that is how the questions are written. They don't make sense.
Reread what they gave you and try again.
