[問題] beyond 文法

[BBEN (ㄚ楠)]

The annual lantern observance brought to a close a full day
of memorials, ranging from official gatherings to a "DIE IN"
and dozens of small-scale peace rallies.

At 815 a.m., the moment of the blast, the city's trolleys stopped.
More than 55,000 people, including Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi,
GATHERED at Peace Memorial Park OBSERVED a moment of silence that
was broken only by the ringing of a bronze bell.

問題一
DIE IN 作何解
受難者家屬

問題二
GATHERED是動詞
那OBSERVED 作何解??

我的文法知識不足以解決這個問題

請教諸君了
