It says 'Su Hai wanted to play Mulan'. Why 'wanted'? Because this happened in the past. We use the Past Tense. For regular verbs, we usually add '-ed' at the end. Want becomes wanted. ‹#› Grammar Focus: Regular Verbs (+ed) Read the Examples 1. She asked Su Yang to practise with her. 2. She practised a lot for the show. How to Change? ask → practise → dance → play → Have a Try!
