Depending on the part of speech, when using platoon as a noun it would be defined as a subdivision of a company of soldiers. When using platoon in it's verb form it would be defined as athelets on the same team rotating through the same position. Hope this helps :)

Platoon means a group of people or things that work together under a leader.

Examples can be:

A platoon of soldiers, which has ~16 - 50 soldiers

A platoon of tanks, which has ~4 - 9 tanks

etc.

A. <span>It creates a melancholy mood that reflects the narrator’s feelings.

The imagery described in this paragraph is very melancholy, which seems to support the narrator's feelings. 

He uses phrases like "patches of snow and earth" and "spotty clouds" which give the image of incompleteness, something not quite full. 
He also uses images of darkness, "black trees" and "the stars were out" which support the unhappiness of the narrator's mood. </span>

Answer:

For the two rivers its

<em><u>Huang and Yangtze rivers</u></em>

the longest river is <em><u>Yangtze river</u></em>

Why the two rivers were important was because <u><em>the Yellow River to the north and the Yangtze River to the south. These major rivers were a great source of freshwater, food, fertile soil, and transportation.</em></u>

And I'm pretty sure what they meant by what the names were for the scientists is <u><em>Archaeologist</em></u>

<u><em>Have a great day a god bless, I'm a Hebrew and god has done great things to me so have faith in him and be strong don't give up because Yeshua ( Jesus) got up so that we could get up again</em></u>

2. by(prep) car(obj)

3. By(prep) afternoon(obj)

4. for(prep) lunch(obj)

5. near(prep) river(obj)

9. at(prep) motel(obj)

A preposition tells where one noun is in relation to another noun. It is always followed by a noun, which is the object of a preposition. One silly way to remember most prepositions is to think about a squirrel and a tree. A squirrel can go (through, on, under, in, off, to, by...) the tree. There are a few prepositions that just need to be remembered such as for.
