Many of your answers are correct. But you've mixed up superlative and comparative in these phrases:
6, 15, 4, 7, 10
6, 15, 4, 7, 10

"More" , "More" are the comparative. Look at 6 and 15.
The superlative is "est" and "most" , example - "farthest
The superlative is "est" and "most" , example - "farthest

More favorably received
15: I listened more calmly
3: farthest from my mind ???
4: most finely carved
7: ran fastest
10: went most smoothly
But I am only guessing!
