8. late,

9. better without for

10. on this street

11. your outstanding debt what you ow me is much more natural

12. [not sure] "it must be assumed that the letter has been sent"

14 purposes

2 is right; 1 would be 'he's so stupid to do that' [he does it] - 'he would be stupid to do that' [he hasn't done it yet.
