Bonjour Elena !

Bravo, most of your sentences are correct: you definitely nailed j'ai faim and j'ai soif ;)

However, you would say je bois de l'eau, and not je bois d'eau, as here you need the partitive article to express "some".
Please have a look at the related lesson for more explanation:

À bientôt !

J'ai faim, et je mange. J'ai soif, et je bois d'eau.
