    They were OK with that. This is using an abbreviated form where only the verb is repeated. This is too.

    One of the uses of 'that' is to introduce reported speech: I said that I was happy. I said I was happy. I said "I'm happy'. All three mean the same thing; 'that' can be omitted in informal speech; sometimes it makes the meaning clearer.

    They are both correct, but as they seem to focus on the plants, it makes more sense to have plants as the subject of the sentence, i.e. the first is more natural. If we are focusing on the fountain, it makes more sense for it to be the subject: I saw a fountain that was surrounded by plants.

    It depends on what style and level of language you are aiming for. Using 'gas' to refer to fuel implies that you are writing colloquial spoken American English, in which case 'stop some place to buy some' would be perfectly valid. You could also write it as 'someplace'. If you are aiming for textbook correct English, follow the advice of the previous answers and use 'somewhere' instead.

    It is commonplace British English to describe an aggressive, violent man as hard. It can also be used jokingly: "you're so hard!" has a sarcastic ring to it. It is possible to conflate this meaning with the sexual one, as Athena suggests: this is what we call 'adolescent humour'.
