1 Correct: This sentence is correct. The expression 'to get over' is a common one. It expresses 'recovery' after a disturbing or sad event. In this case, it took some time before Luna 'felt good again' after the death of her cat 'Mittens'.
1 Incorrect: This sentence is not incorrect.
2 Correct: This sentence is correct. We use 'over' here to describe the action of putting the pillow 'on top of' the husband's face. 'To put something over something' is synonymous with 'To cover with something'.
2 Incorrect: This sentence is not incorrect.
3 Incorrect: This sentence is incorrect. Although 'over' can often be used to mean 'finished' (as in 'game over' or 'the vacation was over'), it cannot be used when followed by the preposition 'with'. It is only an adjective. We could say, however: 'Their game was over, so they went home'.
3 Correct: This sentence is not correct.
