surface intersection, rendering

How to prepare for rendering Existing ground with cutted corridor river? Specially in places where corridor river is below EG. If there is some tool like cut?

It sounds like you're trying to create a Finished Grade surface, using a combination of the existing ground and the corridor surface.  Create a new empty surface, paste in the EG then paste the corridor surface.

If using 2014 you can also use your proposed surface as a hide boundary for the EGL - use this method if you only want to visualise the design in context and use Steve's method if you want a combined surface

Be careful doing this. If your existing ground is used as a target for the corridor and then you past the corridor surface into it then you end up with a circular reference. I would recommend create a new "EG Cutout" surface, past in the EG surface and then using the finished surface as a hide boundary to that surface.
