Many people don't use the bopomofo input, but character input. The character input is faster than the bopomofo input. It need to divide the word into characters and remember the character positions on keyboard. Or you are familiar with the position. I cannot remember the position, but I can easily use the bopomofo input.

Once in Beijing a child fired one netcafe and many young people were killed.

(that is very sad to hear.)

Billy, in English we would say "set fire to" instead of "fired."

"Fired" is when your boss thinks you are not doing a good job and tells you not to come to work anymore.
