台灣國手獲得銀牌肯定要大賀並關注的呀！這一集喬依絲帶你一起讀奧運網站上概述柔道運動與比賽規則的部分，以後對於柔道比賽就有初步的認識與了解啦！

本集學習內容:
Judo means the ‘gentle way’, but it is a full-on combat sport in which a false
move or the slightest loss of concentration can result in defeat.

Judo originated in Japan in the late 19th century, as an activity embracing
physical, mental, educational and moral aspects. The founder, Dr. Kano Jigoro,
was the first Japanese member of the International Olympic Committee.

Judo was introduced as an Olympic sport for men at the Tokyo 1964 Games. The
event took place at the Nippon Budokan. Judo will return to the same venue for
Tokyo 2020. The women's events were added to the Olympic programme at Barcelona
1992.

The objective of judo is to throw or takedown an opponent to the ground; subdue
them with a pinning hold, or force them to submit with a joint lock or a choke.
Athletes (known as judoka) wearing white or blue judogi (judo uniforms) face
each other on a 10m x 10m mat and deploy any of the 100 techniques available.
These are divided into 68 nagewaza (throwing techniques) and 32 katamewaza
(grappling techniques).

The highest score a judoka can earn is “Ippon”, it is the ultimate way to claim
victory in the match and is the highest score in judo. After Ippon is scored,
the match is over. A judgement of Ippon for a throwing technique puts the
opponent on their back with strength, speed and control. If a throw or other
technique is successfully executed but all the requirements for ippon are not
met, waza-ari (a half-point) is awarded. Two waza-ari's in one match is the
equivalent of Ippon. Penalties can also be awarded for passivity or behaviour
deemed contrary to the spirit of judo.

If scores are tied, the bout goes into ‘Golden Score' or overtime. The first
contestant to achieve a further score wins.

Judoka execute these techniques in the blink of an eye and an athlete behind on
points can often achieve a major turnaround in the final seconds of a match.
This is a sport where you can't look away for a moment.
