The fire had begun near the corner of De Koven and Jefferson and quickly fanned out thanks to increasingly gusty winds. One tong

ue traveled north up Jefferson, while the other headed east toward Lake Michigan. There was no way firefighters from two engines could contain a wind-driven fire with such a wide front. Still, they did their best.
Two men hauled the cumbersome canvas hose as close to the flames as possible and aimed a stream of water at the burning building. The water hissed and boiled when it struck the burning wood, sending up a vapor of white steam.

According to the excerpt, what caused the fire to spread so quickly?

the gusty winds
the canvas hose
the white steam
the firefighters

Read the passage.

Based on the given passage describes Jane crashing into Mrs. Miller's car as she thought to herself, "How could I not have seen Mrs. Miller’s van? Out of all the vehicles in this parking lot, I had to back into my Spanish teacher’s?”, but the tone of Mrs. Miller was quite jovial

<h3>What is a Tone?</h3>

This refers to the attitude of an author that is used to tell a story that has a profound effect on the narration which affects the general atmosphere of the scene, also known as the mood of the text.

Hence, it can be seen that when Mrs. Miller realized that her car was dented by Jane, she was jovial about it and acknowledged that she was aware that it was a mistake, and was quite helpful to suggest calling the insurance company to come to fix it up.

Therefore, option A is the right answer.
