I'd like to know if these sentences are correct:

Why do you walk so slowly?
The strong man carried the motorcycle in his arms.

The wind always blows very strong in that place.
The girl looked at him timidly and smiled.

khoshtipMary gave a cleverly excuse to the teacher.No, you can't have this one. You can have one of these:
Mary cleverly gave an excuse to the teacher. (not particularly idiomatic, but possible)
OR
Mary gave a clever excuse to the teacher. (better)

khoshtipI thought "in" mostly means inside/within.You thought right.
If you want to remember this expression, hold your arms out in front of you, bend your elbows so that your hands meet. You've formed a circle. Anything within that circular space is "in your arms".
It's corny, but it could help you remember "in your arms".
