【解析】

文章大意：本文是一则广告，介绍Youth Explore准备的一个为期三天的暑期项目!主要是探索大自然的一些活动，既可以帮助你享受暑假又可以帮助你学习一些有趣和有用的东西。

1.细节理解题。根据广告中对年龄的要求Age: Students aged 8~16，可知这个项目要求年龄在8~16岁的孩子参加，故答案选B。

2.细节理解题。根据广告中的信息Both programs will start 1 DAY later if there is a warning of rainstorms. 如果有暴雨警报，这两个项目都将晚一天开始。再根据信息11th July, 2014(Friday). 2014年7月11日(星期五)，那么14th July应是星期一，推迟一天就是星期二开始，故答案选C。

3.理解判断题。根据Youth Explore has prepared you with a THREE-DAY SUMMER PROGRAM! Youth Explore已经为您准备了一个为期三天的暑期项目!可知Youth Explore应该是活动的发起机构，而不是这个项目的名字，所以A选项不符合文意，排除。根据Groups一行中的信息Each program needs at most 15 students.可知每个项目最多需要15名学生，而不是超过15名学生，所以B选项不符合文意，排除。根据meet with live animals- giraffes, pandas, tigers, and so on!可知，文中只是列举了三种动物，并非只有三种动物，所以C选项不符合文意，排除。根据How to do一行中的信息Simply come to our centre to get an application form . Send your completed form……到我们中心来拿一张申请表就可以了，寄回你填的表格…，可知想要参加这个项目，需要填写一张申请表，所以D选项符合文意。故答案选D。
