(答案→)C
解析：本文介绍了在春天会有许多网站和公司会举行宝宝摄影大赛，详细说明参加比赛的条件、要求和奖金等内容。
【小题1】推理题：根据第一段内容可知获奖了还会有奖金，这会吸引家长的注意。故选C。
【小题2】细节题：根据第三段最后一句“so you have to advertise their site for them”所以你不得不为他们宣传他们的网站。故选A。
【小题3】细节题：根据第三段中“Grand prize is $25,000. ”奖金是2万5千美元，可知A错误；根据第五段第一句“Avon is another pany that has a baby photo contest this spring”雅芳是这个春天另外一家举行婴儿照片比赛的公司，因此B错误；根据第四段第一句“Perents. has a website only for their members”Perents.网站只对自己成员开放，而不是成员的孩子，因此C错误；根据第五段中“Babies’ age: newborn to 2 years. Just go to TinyTillia. and upload your recent baby’s photos”婴儿年龄是新生儿到2岁，就去TinyTillia.上传你家孩子最近的照片，由此可知把一周岁大的孩子的照片传到TinyTillia.是可以的。故选D。
【小题4】推理题：根据最后一段第一句“The tip is to run a search engine for all the latest contests going on and start entering them today. ”小窍门就是运用搜索引擎找到所有最近将要进行的比赛，今天就进入，可知是在告诉你进入尽可能多的比赛的方法。故选B。
