5、rl was now in the finals. 几个月过去了，老师决定带她去参加一次竞赛。令女孩惊讶的是，她轻松地击败了头两个对手。第三个对手虽然比较强悍，但一番苦战后，对手就开始心浮气躁。女孩巧妙的使用她唯一的一招赢得了比赛。女孩自己虽感到不可思议，但她却一步步进入的决赛。This time, her opponent was bigger, stronger and more experienced.

Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.“ 老师回答她说：“有两个原因：一、我教你的招式是柔道中最难的一个动作，而你把它掌握的很精通；二、对手想要破解这个招式只有一个动作，就是抓住你的左手。”The girls biggest weakness had become her biggest strength.这个女孩最软弱的地方，竟然成了她致胜的关键所在。我们每个人都有软弱的地方，但上天总在我们的软弱上，给我们以意想不到的力量。只要善于利用命运给我们的一切，我们也能像这个女孩一般，在自己的软弱上，得到上天的另一种祝福。
