Question

Use page numbers and quotations to write a three-to five-sentence paragraph about one theme from your novel or short story. Remember to include the title and author or the novel or short story. my story is the golden touch. PLEASE HELP

Answer 1

A theme from The Golden Touch is, “Family is priceless.” This theme shows in the story because when King Midas accidentally turns his daughter into gold, he cries and is desperate for her to come back to life, which is why he chose to have his powers removed. When Midas gets water from the river and pours it on Marigold, he is happy and relived to know his daughter is back to normal again. The quote which shows this is:

“But that water, which was to undo all the mischief that his folly had wrought, was more precious to Midas than an ocean of molten gold could have been. The first thing he did, as you need hardly be told, was to sprinkle it by handfuls over the golden figure of little Marigold.”

Answer 2

My story was The Golden Touch by Nathaniel Hawthorne.

We see in the last couple of pages that King Midas regrets ever having the golden touch as it has cost him everything that he has ever loved. Pages 6, 7, and 8 are the pages with the resolution on them. '” Well, friend Midas,” said the stranger, “pray how do you succeed with the Golden Touch?”

Midas shook his head. “I am very miserable,” said he. “Very miserable, indeed!” exclaimed the stranger. “And how happens that? Have I not faithfully kept my

Promise with you? Have you not everything that your heart desired?” “Gold is not everything,” answered Midas. “And I have lost all that my heart really cared for.”' page 6

“King Midas bowed low; and when he lifted his head, the lustrous stranger had vanished. You will easily believe that Midas lost no time in snatching up a great earthen pitcher (but, alas me! It was no longer earthen after he touched it) and hastening to the river-side.” page 7
