1. Some left-over errors you did not correct.

2. In your example, "ear" is used as what we call “量詞” in Chinese. It is normally seen in "ears of corn" not "corn ears." In your sentence you can simply use "corn," which is a collective noun and already gives the meaning you want to use here.

3.You can change "state-owned store" to "co-op store."

You can use "perch" if your chickens were resting on a platform high up above the ground. I was just curious that your chickens seemed to be so well-behaved.

The use of definite and indefinite articles is hard to explain in a few sentences, and sometimes it really needs 語感 to use them correctly. The correct use also depends on the way you understand or use nouns. I found you also have problems with nouns. I am sure you know English nouns are classified into countable nouns, uncountable nouns, abstract nouns, etc. The rule of the thumb is that you cannot leave a singular countable noun without any modifier.

In the Internet age, you don't need to buy a book or find a book in the library to learn the use of articles. Here is a useful link for you:

Please read it carefully, and I can also use the comments in your post to illustrate some points.

For example, in your comment, you wrote "I did use auto-speller."
Since the word "auto-speller" is a singular countable noun, you need to add "an" before it if you are mentioning it for the first time or add "the" before it if you are referring to the one you mentioned earlier.

In your sentence "You have been a great help," the word "help" can be a concrete (countable) noun or an abstract (uncountable) noun. I believe what you meant to use here should be an abstract noun. So the correct way to express that meaning would be "You have been of great help [to me]." If you use the word "help" as a singular countable noun by adding the indefinite article "a," the meaning is slightly different. It would mean 一個幫手 in Chinese, which I don't think is the meaning you wanted to use here.

If you are really serious about learning English, you can browse or join some English-learning forums online, especially those grammar forums where you can interact with native English speakers in discussing grammar or usage.

Learning the basics of grammar is only the first step to learn writing in English, and the hardest part is to try to think in English when you write instead of having a Chinese sentence formed in your mind before you actually write (or translate) it in English.

Another area you may want to work on is punctuation.

Yes, you are certainly right that an auto-speller by itself cannot eliminate all spelling errors; it just serves as a tool to get rid of some misspelt words or simple grammar errors as you type.
