Still Got Friday

I got on scooter within ten minutes after I got your letter. When I got to Carlsbad, I got a taxi for town. But I got wet through before I got to Carlsbad, and I have got such a cold as I shall not be able to get rid of in a hurry. I got to bank about noon, but first of all I got shaved and dressed. I soon got into the secret of getting a petition before the board, but I could not get an answer then, however I got intelligence from the agent that I should most likely get one the next morning.

As soon as I got back to my hotel, I got my dinner, and got to bed, it was not long before I got to sleep. When I got up in the morning, I got my breakfast, and then got myself dressed, that I might get out in time, to get an answer to my petition. As soon as I got it, I got into the taxi, and got to Carlsbad by three: and about tea time, I got home. I have got nothing particular for you and so Adieu.

What's wrong in the above paragraphs ? Can you fix it ?

They are called articles but more appropriate demonstrative ajectives. Both of you I think are correct. Got can in English vernacular be present, future or recent past.

it is the word got. it is used waaaay to often.
This is also something that the exam board look out for, so basically if someone handed that into the teacher they would be screwed, and it would be a big fat F.
