Hello,
I want to clarify your question at the beginning. You want to know if all the sentences are written correctly ? Or are the numbered sentences the original ones, and you want to know if the sentences beneath each one are a correct interpretation ?

I want to rewrite the first sentences into the second ones in each number that keeps the same meaning as the first ones.

Hello.
In that case, the first sentence pair is not good. The first sentence means that it was not possible to escape, but the second means that they didn't have any reason to want to escape. In the second pair, it is unclear whose friend got the prize. I'll stay with my previous answer for the other two.
