Guide: Red=correction | Green=you are correct but this sounds better | Blue=you are correct but more information helps
I think a more literal translation of sentence 2 would be: Mary and Meg often talk while drinking coffee.
What you have written is absolutely correct though.
In sentence 5, you want more (もう) tea, so add another or something to indicate another serving of tea.
You want to use far for distance and long for time when talking about locations.
When dealings with objects, long works for length. Example: How long is the tapeworm?
よいです！もっと！もっと！
