1 CORRECT: This is correct: this sentence uses "motivated" correctly. To be "motivated" means to have the energy, ambition, or inspiration to achieve something. Going to the gym every day certainly requires a lot of motivation! There is a related verb: "Bruno motivates his employees by offering them chocolates for results".
1 INCORRECT: This sentence is not incorrect.
2 INCORRECT: This sentence uses "motivated" incorrectly. A "motivated letter" or a "letter of motivation" are not terms that are used in English. In the context of applying for a job, we send a CV (UK) or resume (US) and a "cover letter" (US and UK) or "covering letter" (UK only).
2 CORRECT: This sentence is not correct.
3 INCORRECT: This sentence uses "reliable" incorrectly. "Reliable" cannot be used as a noun: it is an adjective. In this context we could use a noun like "manager", "director", or "operator".
3 CORRECT: This sentence is not correct.
4 CORRECT: This sentence uses "reliable" correctly. If something is "reliable", you can count on it, depend on it, or trust it. For example "I never have to get my watch repaired. Rolexes are so reliable!" "Reliable" is synonymous with "dependable", and is related to the verb "to rely (on, upon)".
4 INCORRECT: This sentence is not incorrect.
5 CORRECT: "Reserved" is used correctly here. A person who is "reserved" is shy or timid. A reserved person waits to be approached rather than starting a conversation and could be seen as being inhibited.
5 INCORRECT: This sentence is not incorrect.
6 CORRECT: This sentence uses the adjective "reserved" correctly. As an adjective, "reserved" can describe something (such as a table or car) that has been "set aside" or placed apart for the use of someone or something.
6 INCORRECT: This sentence is not incorrect.
