December 24

Today I have to cook the turkey dinner.
I also would like to shop for groceries and cook/prepare something for tomorrow. Tomorrow we will be with my husband's family for Christmas day. Everybody has to prepare a plate for the lunch. It will be a nice gathering, I am sure.
Now, I must leave ... thank you for your help.

Using 'can' and 'able' correctly

I just wrote a small paragraph using: can, can't, able and unable. Did I get everything right?

As soon as I arrived in at my destination, I was able to find the man who was supposed to give me the secret pen drive. Can he be trusted? I asked myself. It doesn't matter. I can't know for sure. As I approached him, he blabbered something in - as I believe - Russian. But I was unable to understand anything he said.

 

not bad for grammar, but an english speaker, or novelist like myself would make other changes. You change tenses from present to past.

To achieve his success, he had to pay for many things.When he was 20, he dropped out of Harvard University to work on a computer program with his friend. They worked 18 hours a day, and 7 days a week. A few years later, in 1975, they created a software company called Microsoft in 1975. Their company became very popular because there were a lot of useful software programs like Microsoft Word, Exel, Powerpoint... that help us a lots in our work.
