    A normal day

    When I woke up this moring, the first thing I did was to play (1) on my phone. Then I brushed my teeth and washed (2) my face with facial cleanser. After that I put some moisturizer on my face so that it helps my (3) skin lock the moisture. Afterwards, I (4) prepare my breakfast . I put one avocado, 250 milliliters milk, 50 grams oats and one cup of protein powder in the blender and make a milkshake.


    Great Story! I hope these corrections help! 

    (1) You need to change "is" to "was" because it is in the past. 

    (2) Since, this happens in the past, you want your verb in the past. 

    (3) "Skin" must have possessive adjective. (My, his, her, etc.) 

    (4) First you do not need to use the infinitive form with the verb "go", and you already have the verb "prepare", so adding "go" sounds awkward.

    Much is a quantifier. It comes before the noun, like other quantifying determiners (Few, some, little). "Much" is always used with uncountable nouns (much work, much snow, etc.). "Many" is always used with countable nouns (many cars, firends, etc.). 1.You are the best student whom I have met. Others don't have as many skills as you have. In this sentence, "skills" is a countable noun. The quantifier comes before the noun. 2. She doesn't have as much money as you have. In this sentence, money is not a countable noun. The quantifier come before the noun. 3.Our country is not developed as much as you think. Much is modifying developed 4.She can't sing as much as you. Much is modifying sing Much in 3 and 4 are adverbs. The structure is used to compare things of similar proportions. The structure is: "as...as" Other examples: She is as tall as you. You can eat as much as you want.

    Since your sentence is starting with "if", it makes the sentence conditional. This means it's talking about what COULD happen. The situation is a past situation that did not happen. So, only the last sentence, using "would be", is correct.

    Hello! I loved reading your story and learning a little about Germany. 
    In your first paragraph, there were some comma errors, and in some places you needed to add the article, "a". 
    In the second paragraph, "The dynasty where he came from had been controlling a half of Europe and have never been cut." You do not need the article, "a" before half. Also, since the subject is "the dynasty", after the 'and' your verb would be "had". 


    Somebody extraordinary

    Hi there! I still need some corrections... :)

    When I came to Germany for the first time, I visited a beautiful palace, Nymphenburg, one of the domains of a well-known Bavarian dynasty, Wittelsbach. The palace had been founded in 1664 and for the next centuries was used as a summer royal residence in Munich. Now, it’s a museum attracting a lot of attention as the largest royal castle in Europe. Thousands of tourists from all over the world come to see it every year, but I discovered that one part of the museum is private.

    Franz Bonaventura Adalbert lives there. He is 84 years old and he is Duke of Bavaria, present Head of the House of Wittelsbach, leading its history from XII century. His grandfather was the last real sovereign of Bavaria. The dynasty where he came from had been controlling   half of Europe and had never been cut. Names of all those kings, queens, princes ,and duchesses still live in the streets, buildings and parks… But, Herr Adalbert himself got through Nazi regime, a concentration camp where he was put at the age of 11 ,and eventually, through global changes in the whole world.

    His titles don’t have legal significance any more, but I guess he still is an unique and respectable person. I believe, if I had an opportunity to speak with him, I would create an interview of his whole life. As a journalist, I have a billion questions about his life and experience. I wonder how is it to be born with such a background? What does the world look like from his point of view? What can Franz Adalbert say as a spectator of different epochs? Well, if I could invite somebody extraordinary to dinner, I would chose him.
