2.Is the fire out ?火灭了吗？
反义：Is the fire sill burning?火还着着吗？

你可能被火烧伤；也可能因为太烫而把锅扔了。

4.In that case, you wouldn’t have a pan on fire. 如果那样的话，就不仅仅是一口锅着火了。

6.The fire also destroyed ears which belonged to people who worked in the building.

这句话中有两个定语从句，1个是which引导的定语从句修饰cars.另1个是who引导的worked in the building,限定people两个关连词作定语从句的主语，所以不能被省略。
belong to：属于，没有被动语态

▲It is /was impossible(possible),necessary, important) for sb. To do sth.对某人来说，做某事不可能（有可能，很必要，很重要）
It is /was +adj for sb to do sth和It is /was +adj sb to do sth的区别。

这句话表示to listen English is necessary是对动作的评价
②It is kind of you to help me. 你来帮我太好了。
这句话表示“you are kind”是对人的主观评价。
▲get close (to )接近
11.There were so many people in the street watching the fire that firefighters could not get close to the building.

“watching”在这里是分词做伴随，表示“There were many people in the street. They were watching the fire.”
