Just a few notes:
In your first sentence, I get the impression that you mean 'LOUDLY', rather than 'ALOUD'. Check the meaning of 'ALOUD'.
In the second sentence, you must say "it is for pregnant WOMEN'.
In the third sentence, you need to use an adjective (DESERTED), rather than a noun/verb (DESERT).

In number 5, I would say 'THE top one'.
And in number 6 'desires' sounds a bit strange....I think it would be more natural to say 'everyone WANTS/LONGS/WOULD LOVE, etc. to live there'.
