【分析】
这是一篇以经典民间故事花木兰替父从军为主题的完形填空，解题时首先要通读全文，梳理清楚故事的完整脉络：木兰年少习武、朝廷征兵、木兰替父从军、征战多年立功、辞官返乡身份揭晓、故事传遍全国，对整体情节有基本认知后，再逐空结合上下文语境提示、词义辨析、固定搭配规则逐一排除错误选项，最后将所有选定答案代入全文通读，验证逻辑通顺、情节连贯即可。

1. 后文提到只有男孩才学习打斗和骑马，此处表达父亲在木兰年幼时教她用剑骑马，A. made后接不带to的不定式，不符合句中to use的结构；B. stopped停止，和文意相悖；C. taught教，符合语境；D. invited邀请，不符合人物身份逻辑，故选C。
2. 此处表达士兵来到木兰的家乡征兵，后文也多次出现hometown的提示，A. city城市范围过大；C. garden花园不符合场景；D. country国家不符合征兵挨家到户的逻辑，故选B。
