Have you ever heard of a famous charity called Operation Smile? We hope we can help you understand how we are trying to help children all over the world.
Operation Smile was set up by a doctor and his wife in 1982. Together with some volunteers, they went to the Philippines to help children who had holes in their lips or inside their mouths. It was very difficult for them to eat and drink. These volunteers worked hard. But they worried that they could not carry on with the work because they didn't have enough money. Then they decided to set up a charity so that they could help these children in need. They called it Operation Smile.
Operation Smile works in many developing countries and has cured thousands of children who have problems with their mouths. Operation Smile has won many prizes for its work and in 1999 it even held a special event called The World Journey of Hope. 5,300 children in 18 countries were cured during the event.

选项C：原文提到该组织此前就因为资金不足难以推进工作，文末还呼吁大家捐款，说明开展工作需要资金，描述错误；
选项D：对应原文第三段第一句"has cured thousands of children who have problems with their mouths"，描述正确。
因此本题选D。
3. 主旨大意题：文章前半部分完整介绍了Operation Smile的成立背景、工作范围和取得的成果，最后一段直接呼吁读者献出爱心、捐款支持该慈善项目，因此写作目的是介绍这个慈善组织并寻求公众的支持，对应选项D。
