This is a story of one 10-year-old boy who decided
to study judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a devastating
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 time-out. 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
critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to
pin him. 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 summoned 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. And second, the only known defense for that move is
for your opponent to grap your left arm."
The boy's biggest weakness had become his biggest
strength.
Your task is to classify the sentences you've read above to its types: simple, compound, or complex.
Underline the key point of each sentence that gives signal or represents your reason toward the answer you have (classification).
Good luck, students! ^_^
