Are these sentences natural? November 3

Hi,

Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?



1. I don’t know what was wrong with the tap a last couple of days. The force was missing.



2. I wanted to investigate why the fundraising amount this year so lower than that in last year.



3. Our hero is a lawyer in (the) real life ( is ‘the’ required)



Thanks,

MG.
