PAGE 6 - Unit 1 Women of achievement Period 3 Learning about Language 课后阅读作业 Ⅰ. 阅读理解 A Mulan is a young woman in ancient China who disguises(假扮)herself as a man in order to fight in her father’s place against the Huns. This legend dates back to a 6th century Chinese poem. In the poem, Mulan is a strong and independent woman. As we first see Mulan, she is preparing to meet with a matchmaker(媒人)to find a suitable husband and honour the family name. To ensure good luck, her grandmother sends along Cri-Kee. However, Mulan is not yet ready to have a husband. Soon after this disappointing turn, her father is drafted(征募)to serve in the army against the Huns. Mulan decides to honour her family by fighting in her father’s place, so she leaves with her horse to other soldiers. Before she leaves, Mulan asks for guidance from her ancestors; they send a tiny dragon named Mushu to watch over her, but he may bring more trouble than help. Mushu and Cri-Kee provide much of the comedy in the movie. Mulan is a great family film, suitable for almost any age. There are few frightening or overly violent scenes. The comedy is successful and its characters are easier for young children to watch. What’s more, music is an important part of the movie and the music numbers are well-placed, and while they maintain Disney standards, they also manage to show the mood of different time and places. 【语篇概述】文章讲述的是动画片《木兰》的故事梗概以及它成功的原因。 1.
