A 10-year-old boy decided to learn judo(柔道)despite(尽管)the fact that he had lost his left arm in a car accident．The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher．The boy was doing well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move．
“Master,” 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 teacher replied．Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training．Several months later, the teacher took the boy to his first competition．
Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches．The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent(对手)became impatient and charged(紧张); the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match．Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the final．
This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced．The match started, and the boy soon appeared to be overmatched．Thought that the boy might get hurt, the judge called a time-out．He was going to stop the match when the teacher appeared．
“No,” the teacher insisted, “Let him continue．”
Soon after the match continued, his opponent made a careless mistake．Immediately, the boy used his move to pin(压住)him．The boy won the match and the competition．He was the winner．
On the way home, the boy and the teacher reviewed every move in each and every match．Then the boy got up the courage to ask what was really on his mind．
“Teacher, how did I win the competition with only one move?”
The teacher answered．“First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo．Second, the only known defense(防卫)for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm．”
