There are a very large number of English words that fit this pattern. I'm not about to provide an exhaustive list, but "number" is one of them.
Most words that have the EI pair give it a long E sound (receive) or a long A when it is used with the silent GH (weigh, eight). The words height are sleight are among the few words where EI has a long I sound.
The u is a short vowel and the i is a long vowel.
Yes, the word "fire" does have a long vowel sound. The vowel "i" in "fire" is pronounced as a long vowel, which means it says its name. In this case, the "i" in "fire" sounds like the letter "I" itself, rather than a short "i" sound like in "fit."
There is no short I. There is a long I and a long E. (SHY-nee)(A short I would make it sound like shinny.)
There are 12 pure vowels: see, fit, bed, pan, far, dog, force, food, put, hut, bird, and the last pure vowel sound is called shwa (which accounts for 30% of all vowel sounds in British spoken english), it is the sound of any unstressed vowel, like the second vowel in any of the words atlas, college, lettuce

Words that fit the CVVC (Consonant-Vowel-Vowel-Consonant) pattern typically include those where a consonant is followed by two vowels and ends with another consonant. Examples include "bead," "team," "coat," and "rain." In these words, the first vowel often contributes to the syllable structure, while the second vowel can modify the sound of the first or serve as a part of a diphthong. This pattern is common in English and can be found in various word families.
The term "prehaps" seems to be a typographical error for "perhaps." If we consider "perhaps," it does not fit neatly into the VCV (vowel-consonant-vowel) or VCCV (vowel-consonant-consonant-vowel) patterns. Instead, it follows a VCV pattern with the "per" as a consonant cluster followed by the vowel "a" and the consonant "ps." Thus, "perhaps" is best represented by the VCCV pattern.
The word olive does follow the vowel-consonant-vowel pattern.Remember that the only vowels in the American Alphabet are A,E,I,O, and U; Everything else is a consonant.When the word olive is broken down into letters:O (vowel)L (consonant)I (vowel)V (consonant)E (vowel)

There are many, many such words, including cat, dog, fin, gin, dig, hex, and on and on. There are even more if you think of "ch", "ph", "sh", "dg", "th", etc, as consonants, which they are, at least in the spoken word. Then you could include words like then, this, that, bath, both, ...
The word "banner" is a VCCV (vowel-consonant-consonant-vowel) structure. It consists of two syllables: "ban" (VCC) and "ner" (VCC). Each syllable contains a vowel followed by two consonants, making it fit the VCCV pattern.
Because you double the words ending in CVC (consonant vowel consonant ) like adMIT ... train does't fit in this rule, that's why!
This is a word that is formed of: first a consonant, second a vowel, and third a consonant. Some examples are: can, jam, peg, den, bin, fit, cot, dot, cut, bun.
