【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了TED以及它的历史发展。
（1）考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“Andatwww.ted.com,youcanaccesslecturesbyartists,scholars,designers,techniciansandothers.”在www.ted.com，你可以访问艺术家、学者、设计师、技术人员和其他人的演讲。以及以下几个段落的内容，可知这篇文章的主题是“TED是什么”，故选D。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“TheTEDwebsitecamefromadesiretosharetheconferenceswiththeworld,to‘offerfreeknowledgefromtheworld'smostinspiredthinkers,’asthewebsiteputsit.”TED网站源于一种与世界分享会议的愿望，用网站的话说，就是“向世界上最有灵感的思想家们提供免费的知识”。可知，“TED大会是在www.ted.com网站成功之后召开的”这种表述错误，故选A
