試題分析：文章是為萬圣節(jié)活動(dòng)而征集志愿者，具體講述了每一類職位的要求以及職責(zé)，還有加入成為志愿者的方式等。

1.1】C 第二段開頭We are now looking for 10,000 volunteers to help the Carnival(狂歡節(jié)), the Haunted Walk and various other children's activities around the Park，說明志愿者是為了各種兒童活動(dòng)和游行而設(shè)。故選C。

2.2】D 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。題目中問的是在成為志愿者之前需要做什么，即是加入的流程，找到“register”Every potential volunteer must complete a volunteer application (click below to complete your application form). ，所以每個(gè)人需要先注冊申請，故選D。

3.3】B 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。根據(jù)短文中是十三歲的孩子如何加入，Children under 14 years old may volunteer if they are accompanied by an adult，十四歲以下的孩子需要一個(gè)成人的陪護(hù)才能加入。所以可以加入，故選擇B。
