"To build (an object)" is to construct, assemble or create it.

1 Wellington: This is correct. According to Rob, and most geographic authorities, Wellington is the capital of New Zealand! Did you know that Beef Wellington is a famous type of dish? You do now!
1 Auckland: This is incorrect. Although Rob is from Auckland, he tells us (correctly) that Wellington is the capital of New Zealand.

2 off the coast of Australia: This is correct. Rob tells Brent (correctly) that New Zealand is located "2000 kilometers off the coast" of Australia. The phrase "off the coast" describes a place, generally an island, in relation to another land mass, sometimes called the "mainland". For example: Hawaii is an island located off (of) the California coast.
2 on the coast of Australia: This is incorrect. "On the coast" and "off the coast" have different meanings. A city "on the coast of California" is located within California (and borders the ocean), however a city located "off the coast of California" is generally an island, in other words it is not "landlocked" to the state!

6 New Zealand: This is correct. Rob tells Brent Vanderplop that New Zealand "has a north island and a south island", in other words, the country is composed of two islands. If a country is "composed (of 2 islands)", the country "consists of" or "is made up of" 2 islands!
6 Australia: This is incorrect. Although strictly speaking, the Island of Tasmania (famous for its devils) lies off of the southern coast of Australia, only the country of New Zealand is truly composed of two islands, North and South!

6 Neither New Zealand or Australia: This is incorrect.
7 Both New Zealand and Australia: This is correct.
