Hi!

Please help me with the following sentences:

1.Some of them cover a distance of a hundred or even more kilometres a day, and they do not find it a big problem. (should there be "a hundred" or just "hundred"?)

2.When I came round, I was in a hospital. (should there be "in a hospital" or "in hospital"?)

3.Although transplants are not yet routine, they are becoming more and more common. (Should there be "a" routine or not?)

4.What sort of persons join a sect? (should there be "sorts of people" or it's ok now?)

5. ...which can result in dewatering of the body. (is this correct or should it be: which can result in dehydration?)

Thanks.
