How do you know what degree you are in York Rite Freemasonry if you are aMark Master mason in Mark and a Companion in Chapter?
Mark Master Mason (MMM) is directly after the Master Mason degree; then is Past Master (PM), Most Excellent Master (MEM), then the Royal Arch Degree at which time the Brother becomes a Companion. The Chapter Degrees are not numbers like in the Scottish Rite or Blue Lodge.
In Britain, the order of these degrees is quite different. A Master Mason may become a RAM in England; a Fellowcraft in Scotland generally becomes a MMM before becoming a Master Mason. The PM (Virtual Past Master) degree is unheard of outside of the United States or those places who derive their ritual directly from there.

Why is number 33 the highest rank in Masonic Degrees?
I am guessing that by "ranking" you are referring to degrees. To make a long story short, there is no degree in Freemasonry higher than that of Master Mason, or the Third Degree. There are, however, a number of organisations (or appendant bodies) that require being a Master Mason as a prerequisite for membership. The Scottish rite is one of these appendant bodies and offers degrees up to the thirty third. While these appendant bodies have no authority over Freemasonry, (nor regardless of the level of their degree, do they place their members in a "higher" status than that of a Master Mason) they can provide an expanded perspective on some of the allegorical, moral and philosophical aspects of Freemasonry.

When someone is given the "third degree", what is it? What are the first and second?

For the third and most important degree (master mason) it is particularly detailed and lengthy. As Masonry has been traditionally popular in law-enforcement agencies, "give him the third degree" became an "in" reference to a particularly gruelling police questioning.
