Are these sentences machine generated?

No. They come from the site's own dictionary examples, graded readers, travel phrasebook and grammar library — all written by a person. A word with no sentence gets no page here, rather than a page of invented ones.

Why do some sentences show 赖 inside a longer word?

Because that is where a single character usually lives. Seeing 赖 inside the words it builds is how the character stops being an isolated symbol and starts being something you can read.
