'to move on' means to go forward so it fits with option 1.
'to expand on' means to enlarge a topic so it wits with option 5.
'to digress' means to talk about something that's not fully connected to your main point so it fits with option 8.
'to go back' means to return to something so it fits with option 3.
'to recap' means to cover the things you've said again so it fits with option 4.
'to conclude' means to finish so it fits with option 9.
'to summarise' is to cover all the material quickly (normally done near the end of something) so it fits best with option 7 though it could fit with option 4 too.
'to turn to' means to make a fairly large change in what you're talking about so it fits best with option 2 but you could use it for option 1 as well.
'to elaborate on' means to go into more detail so it fits best with option 6.
Hope that helps.

Well, I suggest you use a dictionary.
