Are these sentence correct?

The sentences are correct, but believe it or not, some are more correct than others. They DO NOT have the same meaning.

1 and 2 are both correct, and could have the same meaning, but may not. The first one is "elliptical," which means that some of the words have been left out, but you can infer what is meant. The missing words could be several possibilities: repairs which were carried out; repairs which have been carried out; repairs which are carried out; are being carried out.

Since you don't know which auxiliary verb form is missing, so can't say with certainty what the tense is. But they are both correct.

2 and 3 might seem to mean the same thing, but they don't. In #2, the repairs are done on a frequent or regular basis, ongoingly on the motorway, and therefore delays could be expected.

But in #3, the repairs are being carried out on the motorway at the present moment, or at the present time. There is no indication that repairs are made on the motorway on an ongoing basis. Since repairs are occurring now, and that is unusual, delays would be expected. The sentence is grammatically allowable.

4 - is referring to repairs which were carried out on the motorway, and now they are finished. The implication is that something about the repairs themselves may result in traffic delays. The sentence conforms to grammatical conventions.

5 - In the last one, the repairs were being carried out recently, but for a finite period of time. This one is questionable as pertains to correctness. The repairs were carried out and now they are done. How could they delay traffic? This is another one where the repairs or resultant condition of the road become the problem for traffic.

Which one of these sentences is correct?

Grammatically speaking, both are correct.The first one is in direct speech and should be punctuated accordingly."How could I have forgotten about that?", he thought. It was the most important detail of the mission. Something that a soldier of his caliber had to remember.The second one is supposedly in indirect speech. It needs a few rearrangements.How he could have forgotten about that, he thought. It was the most important detail of the mission. Something that a soldier of his caliber had to remember.I don't know what you mean by just. But if you are narrating the story using dialogues, the first one would be better. Nonetheless, the first one seems to be an appropriate and clear grammatical construct.

Are these sentences correct or not?

Using the word condolences in the letter is a bit difficult and awkward. It doesn't really say anything or express your gratitude for their condolences anyway. How about something like this instead:

Dear __________,
Thank you so much for sending me a card when my father died. It means a lot that you were thinking of me at such a sad time. Your heartfelt condolences were very much appreciated.

Sincerely,

_________

You can change the word card, to letter, or note, or flowers depending on what they sent you. Just keep it simple.
