Long long ago, there was a man. He loved gold more than other things. He was greedy （贪婪的） . He always prayed to a fairy for more gold. The fairy decided to punish the man and said to him, "OK, from now on, everything that you touch （触摸） will become gold." The king was very happy.
The next morning, when he touched his bed, it turned into gold. When he began to dress, his clothes became gold. When he picked one flower, it turned into gold. When he touched the food, it changed into gold. When he touched the water, it changed into gold to 0.Then he held his little daughter in his arms and the girl turned into a gold statue.
He began to cry and begged the fairy to take away the Golden Touch. From then on, the man wasn't greedy any more. He never forgot this lesson. He knew that gold could not bring happiness.
