写作思路：首先写花木兰来历，然后写代父从军。
Hua Mulan is a heroine who joined the army for her father, according to what is described in a famous Chinese ancient poetry The Ballad of Mulan.
花木兰是中国有名古诗《木兰辞》中描绘的一位替父从军的英雄。
Mulan's father is too old to bear suffering from the bitterness, and she doesn't have an elder brother to go and fight instead of the old father.
因木兰的父亲年事已高，不能经受奔波劳苦，木兰又没有兄长可以代替老父，于是她把自己乔装成男子代父从军。
So Mulan decides to disguised herself as a man to join the army for her father. Hua Mulan has been highly respected as a filial model by the Chinese people for hundreds of years, even though it is unknown whether the story has any factual basis.
虽然这个故事是否真实不得而知，但是千百年来，花木兰作为孝顺的典范而深受中国人的尊敬。
In 1998，her story was adapted into an animated cartoon by Disney of the United States, and the cartoon was very popular all over the world.
