Здесь нужна конструкция prove that... — «доказать, что...». Путешествие доказало, что Азия не соединена с Северной Америкой. Convince и persuade требуют одушевлённого объекта — кого именно убедили, а appear означает «казаться» и не выражает доказанность факта.

Здесь описывается положение острова относительно побережья: off the shore of... — «у побережья, недалеко от берега». С предлогом off именно shore естественно используется при географическом описании расположения острова. Bank относится прежде всего к берегу реки, beach — к пляжу как полосе суши, а sea-side обозначает приморскую местность и здесь не подходит.

Компания была создана для того, чтобы заниматься российскими интересами и защищать их. Фразовый глагол look after означает «заботиться о, следить за, обеспечивать интересы кого-либо», поэтому сочетание look after Russian interests соответствует смыслу. Look at означает «смотреть на», look for — «искать», а look away — «отводить взгляд», поэтому эти значения не соответствуют функции компании.

Пропуск относится к словосочетанию the European colonists, то есть к людям, и вводит определительное придаточное: они никогда не насчитывали более нескольких сотен человек. Для обозначения людей в такой позиции используется относительное местоимение who. Which относится преимущественно к предметам и явлениям, whose выражает принадлежность, а what не употребляется после уже названного существительного в такой конструкции.

Речь идёт о территории Аляски, которой русские управляли до её продажи США. Area означает «территория, область» и подходит для обозначения географического пространства без значения независимого государства. Country предполагало бы отдельное государство, ground обозначает землю или поверхность, а earth — землю как почву или планету.
