What happened when the author…——2014 高考英语第 37 题答案解析

【答案】D

【解析】考查细节理解。根据文章第三段话的叙述，I had tried to light a barrel（桶）of paint but couldn’t
really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the
police were there to greet
me，可知，我点燃了一桶油漆，但火并没燃得很大烟却很浓，警察来把我带走。所以答案选D。
