Answer:

1.Controlled Burns can grow out of control if you are not careful or properly prepared to execute one.

2.Wind speed and direction

3.*need more info, sorry*

4.*need info but will give it a shot* quotation marks can indicate that the safe and controlled burn isn't entirely controlled and safe at all times.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.controlled burns can progress into full blown forest fires if you are not careful and deliberate with how you execute them.

2.Wind speed and direction is random at times. This unpredictability can lead to the fire changing directions and progressing into a major wild fire.

3.There isnt enough info on the author, just do a guess about how you think they feel.

4.My guess is that the author is pointing out that these words are not entirely true. The author could be doing this by quoting these words: for example, Tom is late to work again, he said he was "doing his taxes".
