when the japanese have fevers how high is it before they like cant go to school and work?

"Shimashita" and "shita" are both past-tense forms of "suru", the verb that means "do". "Shimashita", however, uses the polite "-masu" form/conjugation, and "shita" is just the plain, past version. Use the -masu form with people you're not super close to and where politeness is important ^_^.
