I: What happened there, Rika? Did you just sign that guy’s book? R: You saw that? I: Yeah! It was like you were famous ____. R: That’s because, er ... I don’t know. I guess I am, ____ – if you’re a judo fan. I: What? R: Well, in my other life, away from selling books, I do judo and last week I was in a competition on TV. That guy recognised me from there. I: ____? That’s amazing! R: Oh, it’s no ____. I didn’t win it ____. I lost in the semi-finals. I: You got to the semi-finals! I can’t believe it! I mean, ____, but you don’t look big enough to fight. R: Well, you fight according to your weight in judo, so size doesn’t matter. Although being big isn’t always an advantage. It’s ____ balance. Someone can be big and strong, but if they’re off-balance, you can easily throw them. I bet I could throw you over! I: Hey, I believe you! So how long have you been doing it, ____? I: Hey, I believe you! So how long have you been doing it, then? R: Ever since I was a kid. At school, the big kids often used to bully me because I was so small and I got into fights, so my dad suggested I did a martial art to defend myself and that was it, really. I: Well, you’ve kept very quiet about it. I mean, how long have I known you now? Six years? R: Yeah, well, I don’t really ____ it’s connected to what I do at work and, I don’t know, I think it’s strange for me to just tell colleagues I’m a judo champion for no reason. I: I ____. So, how often do you have to train? R: Well, I usually practise all the techniques for ____ an hour a day once I get home in the evening, and then two or three times a week I go to a special judo school to practise fighting. I: ____! And this competition the other week … what was it exactly? Was it a big thing? R: Um, yeah … it was the women’s national finals! I: No! And you got to the semi-finals! R: ____! I’ve ____ won it before so I’m a bit annoyed I didn’t win it this time, but I had quite a bad back injury last year, which stopped me doing any training or fighting.I: ____? How long were you out of action? R: Well, I didn’t do anything for a couple of months and I only started full training a few weeks before the finals. I: OK. ____, it sounds as if you did well to get to the semi-finals then. R: I ____. And the girl who beat me went on to win the whole thing, so ... still, I hate losing! I: Amazing. You learn something new every day!
