A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a terrible car accident.
The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was doing well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move. "Sensei," the boy finally said, "shouldn't I be learning more moves?" "This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know," the sensei replied. Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.
Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first tournament.
Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy deftly used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.
This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the referee called a timeout. He was about to stop the match when the sensei intervened.
"No," the sensei insisted, "let him continue." Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a big mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy had won the match and the tournament. He was the champion.
On the way home, the boy and sensei reviewed every move in each and every match.
Then the boy gathered the courage to ask what was really on his mind. "Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only one move?" You won for two reasons," the sensei answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm."

试题分析：文章讲述了一个失去左臂的男孩学习柔道，只会一招，第一次参加比赛就夺冠的故事。男孩之所以胜利一是掌握了整个柔道中难度最高的一种摔跤动作，二是破解此招惟一的方法就是对手去抓男孩的左臂。由此可知，最大的弱点有时会变成了最大的优势。
小题1:细节题：从第二段的句子：The boy was doing well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move.可知教练只教这个男孩一个动作：The master only taught the boy one move.
小题2:细节题：从第四段的句子：Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the referee called a timeout. 可知裁判叫了暂停是害怕男孩受伤：Because he was afraid/concerned the boy might get hurt.
小题3:细节题：从最后一段的句子："First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm."可知男孩获胜是因为他掌握了最难的动作还有唯一破解他这个动作的是抓住他失去的左臂： Because he mastered one difficult throw and the only defense for it is to grab his missing left arm.
小题4:主旨题：文章讲述了一个失去左臂的男孩学习柔道，只会一招，第一次参加比赛就夺冠的故事。男孩之所以胜利一是掌握了整个柔道中难度最高的一种摔跤动作，二是破解此招惟一的方法就是对手去抓男孩的左臂。由此可知，最大的弱点有时会变成了最大的优势。答案是One’s biggest weakness can become one’s biggest strength.
