Salut!

Ich weiß nicht genau, was du mit dem "an hour and a half ago" aussagen willst - übersetzt bedeutet es ja: "er kam vor eineinhalb Stunden an", was aber im Kontext "vor einer Woche" nicht wirklich sinnvoll erscheint.
Meinst du vielleicht "after an hour and a half of flight, he arrived at..."?
> He looked at a taxi and he found once.
Da hast du wohl ein, zwei Sachen durcheinander gebracht.
"Nach etwas suchen" wird mit "to look for" übersetzt - "he looked for a taxi".
Außerdem fehlt in deiner zweiten Satzhälfte noch das Objekt: "...and he found one at once" - "...und er fand auf Anhieb eines.".
> He stopped the taxi
> and asked the driver to take him to a hotel called"The
> Black Bull".
> Mr Davenport knew this hotel from a previous visit to
> Manchester.
> He paid the taxi driver and went into the hotel.
> He walked to the receptionist and asked him for his room
> number and his key.

Ja. :)
> Mr Davenport was washimg his body and he put on a clean
> shirt.
"...washing his body..." klingt etwas ungelenk - es würde zwar jeder verstehen, was gemeint ist, aber im Deutschen sagt man ja auch nicht "...er wusch seinen Körper...". Es würde wohl reichen, wenn du sagst "...washed himself..." oder "...took a bath..." oder dergleichen.
> He went to the dinner and ate vegetables, potatoes, meat
> and drank beer.
Ja - wobei es stilistisch noch schöner wäre, würdest du vor den letzten Punkt der Nahrungsaufzählung noch ein "and" einfügen, also "...potatoes and meat and drank beer.".
Au revoir!
