You need an apostrophe in all the abbreviations of 'not', eg isn't, can't, don't.

Here are some tips to get your questions answered:

1. Number each question.

2. Make your post MUCH shorter. For example, the first ten questions only.

And

3. Use standard English to start with. You have no capital letters, which makes us question how serious you are about learning correct English.
