"May I have..." is considered to be really polite. If you are talking to a stranger and want to be polite then you can say this. "Can I get..." is just the normal way of saying you want something. e.g. The difference between "Can I get a glass of water?" and "May I have a glass of water?" is just politeness

In this sentence "backs up" refers to the traffic I think. So in this sentence, there is a lot of traffic between Buckingham Fountain to McCormick Place.

Dear mam

Dear mam.
Thanks very much for looking after your grandson while we are in the theatre.
I am positive that you don’t need any instructions, but just in case…
First of all, make sure that he isn’t hungry. Let him play in his room as much as he wants. Do not disturb him while he is playing by himself. Usually, he is able to play without demanding any attention during for half an hour.
Then he will ask you to turn on cartoons. Just press the ON buttons on each of the two remote controls.
Meanwhile, while he is watching TV you have time to cook a porridge for him (the saucepan on the left shelf and the corn packet on the lower cupboard). Please, don’t forget to add some slices of banana into the porridge.
Whatever you do, please, avoid giving him sweets before the dinner.
Then, when he will be after he is tired from watching the TV, give him a porridge, then after that he can get cookies.
Finally, before sleeping, read him a book, he will point to his favourite one.
I hope we will manage to be as soon as possible.   ?

I don't understand the last sentence, but the rest is very well written.

My problems of learning English

I have to learn English for so many years, but and I also can't speaking it very well.And My grammar is too very bad and I don't know how to make it better. The reason of these questions,maybe for this might be that I don't have so many a good language environment to practice in, therefore I can't practice it every all of the time. *But I think I will make my English better through exercise of everyday.
*I think practising everyday will make my English better.

A strawberry

My favorite fruit is a strawberry. A strawberry is reaped during winter and is acinaceous. I have a pleasant memory picking a bunch of strawberries in strawberry fields when I was eight years old. I was wearing a straw cowboy hat and draping in a flimsy outer garment. Some strawberries were grown in a vinyl greenhouse to prevent them from gale, cold and vermin. Those These fields were humid and hot but it was enjoyable since I could eat the as many strawberries ones as much as I wanted. I made strawberry jams with half of the strawberries picked and sugar that was with the remaining half of the ones, and then put them into a jar.

Please correct my sentences. Thanks in advance :)

Very well written. I've also never heard of the word "acinaceous" and it comes up as incorrect with my computer but maybe that's just me.
