(2)Why don't use "had received"?
Dan went to the address (he received), but it turned out to a bad call.

(3) Why use "its"?
America buys most of( its) pumpkins in grocery stores.

(4) Is it correct?
For example, the owner of the town's hardware store, Tom Zettler, (asserts makes) 25 percent of his sales to trhe Amish.

(5) Why use "go"not 'going'or not 'went back'?
In short, they favor traditional customs that, (go )back hundreds of years.

Thanks.

The way to remember whether or not you use 'I' or 'me' is by dropping off the other person or thing and see if it still makes sense.
For example:
Do you want to go to the mall with Brian and me?
Do you want to go to the mall with me?
and
Brian and I went to the mall.
I went to the mall.

The sentence is "This form will ask in which health plan the employee wants to sign up for."
I know I shouldn't end the sentence with "for". But this doesn't sound right either: "This form will ask in which health plan the employee wants to enroll."
