His Adam's apple protruded IN/FROM his scrawny neck? As in the title - which preposition would be correct in this sentence?

Recoil IN horror or WITH horror? Exactly as in the title. If you rapidly move, flinch at the sight of something for example - can you also say that you "recoiled WITH horror"? I think you can say "recoil in horror", but I was wondering about with.

Is the sentence: 'to enkindle the feelings of patriotism in the heart of new generation' correct? I specifically wonder if there should be a singular noun "heart" or "hearts". I have read in a French grammar book that 'French normally uses the singular form of nouns if they refer to something of which we have only one, e.g. la vie (life), la tête (head/face), le cou (neck), for example: Elle leur a sauvé LA VIE. = She saved their lives (so in French it's literally: "She saved their life"). As an extension of this idea, I would imagine that we should apply plural in my sentence as well: "hearts". But, honestly, a singular form "sounds better" to my ear, so I wanted to know how do you, especially native speakers feel about it.

Would you rather say "commiserations FOR the losing team" or "TO the losing team"?

Do I "feel" offended or I "am" offended? Or perhaps both are correct?

'ON' this area or 'IN' this area? For example: 'The family lived IN/ON this area for four years'. I would say 'in' but I want to make sure if I am not mixing my native language here ;)

'Stones weather IN time' or 'WITH time'? Or perhaps both versions are correct?

How to say that the food is not good to eat anymore because it is too old, in the American English? I know the expression "to go off" used if food or drink is not good to eat or drink any more because it is too old. However, in dictionaries this expression is marked as a British expression. I was wondering, how an American would express the same concept then?

Grammar question (about articles in a sentence). In a sentence: "when we make adjustments we zero the hours in the former task but we leave it, just to be able to trace the changes in the future, should a need arise." What article should we use at the end? 1) should A need (indefinite because we do not know what will be the need)? 2) should THE need (because that is a fixed expression: "should the need arise")? 3) should X need (zero article because "need" is an abstract noun?)
