YangXi (spelling???) River. Perhaps someone else can give you the other two since this is the only one I know.

The Yangzi or Chang Jiang.

Huang He (Yellow River).

Those are the big two.

The Pearl River is more like the confluence of several rivers in an estuary, kind of like Chesapeake Bay or La Plata. Still, the estuary, or Pearl River Delta, as it is often called, is very important in human and economic geography because it is where you find Guangzhou (Canton), Hong Kong, and Macau.

The Yangzi, the Huang He, and the Mekong of Southeast Asia all have their sources in the Chinese province of QInghai. The Brahmaputra which joins the Ganges in South Asia, has its source in Tibet, administered by the People's Republic of China for the past half-century as the Xizang Ziziqu or Tibetan Autonomous Region.

Jangtse and Huanghe (Gelber Fluß (German), =Yellow River?) are the two most important ones.
other are Mekong, Perlfluss(German; =Pearl River?), Brahmaputra and Amur

from Wikipedia of Germany, I think there is an English version, too

Yangtze, Yellow and Huangpu. Most major cities border these rivers.
