A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo (柔道), although he had lost his left arm in a car accident.
  The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher, Mr. Tanaka. The boy was doing well, but his teacher had taught him only one move in three months of training.
  “Mr. Tanaka,” the boy finally asked, “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,” his teacher replied.
  Several months later, Mr. Tanaka took the boy to his first tournament (锦标赛). The boy won his first three matches, using his one move to win. The boy was now in the finals, and was amazed by his own success.
  This time, his opponent (对手) was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. The referee (裁判) wanted to stop the match.
  “No,” the teacher insisted, “let him continue.” Soon, his opponent lowered his guard. At that moment the boy used his move to pin (钉住) him. The boy won the match and became the champion.
  On the way home, the boy and his teacher reviewed every match. Then the boy asked what was really in his mind.
  “Mr. Tanaka, how did I win the tournament with only one move?”
  “You won for two reasons,” his teacher answered. “First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. And second, the only defense (防守) for that move is for your opponent to catch your left arm.”

Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp(大口喘气) and take a deep breath of air.
