The Golden Touch Unit- II  (SUMMERY AND MCQS)


1. King Midas woke up early in the morning, eager to see if his wish for the Golden Touch had come true.


ସକାଳେ ଶିଘ୍ର ରାଜା ମିଡାସ ଉଠିଲେ, ତାଙ୍କର “ସୁବର୍ଣ୍ଣ ସ୍ପର୍ଶ” ଇଚ୍ଛା ପୂରଣ ହେଲା କି ନାହିଁ ବୁଝିବାକୁ ଆତୁର ଥିଲେ।


2. At first, his bed and room looked the same, and he felt disappointed.


ପ୍ରଥମେ ତାଙ୍କ ବିଛାଣା ଓ କୋଠା ସେଇଭଳି ଦେଖାଗଲା, ଯାହା ଦେଖି ସେ ନିରାଶ ହେଲେ।


3. When the first ray of sunlight entered the room, the bed sheet turned into cloth of gold, proving his wish had been granted.


ଯେତେବେଳେ ପ୍ରଥମ ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟକିରଣ କୋଠାରେ ପଡ଼ିଲା, ବିଛାନାର ଚାଦର ସୁନା ହେଲା ଏବଂ ତାଙ୍କ ଇଚ୍ଛା ପୂରଣ ହେଲା ବୋଲି ସିଧାସଳଖ ପ୍ରମାଣ ମିଳିଲା।

4. Everything he touched — the bed, curtain, and his clothes — turned into gold.


ସେ ଯାହାକୁ ସ୍ପର୍ଶ କଲେ — ବିଛାଣା, ପର୍ଦା, ଓ ଜମା — ସବୁ ସୁନା ହେଇଗଲା।

5. His spectacles also turned into gold, making it impossible for him to see through them.
ତାଙ୍କ ଚସ୍ମା ମଧ୍ୟ ସୁନା ହେଲା ଓ ତାହାର ମାଧ୍ୟମରେ ଦେଖିବା ଅସମ୍ଭବ ହେଲା।

6. Midas was overjoyed and went downstairs; even the door handle turned to gold when he touched it.


ମିଡାସ ବହୁତ ଖୁସି ହେଲେ ଓ ତଳକୁ ଗଲେ; ସେ ଦରଜାର ହ୍ୟାଣ୍ଡଲ୍ ସ୍ପର୍ଶ କରିବା ସହିତ ତାହା ସୁନା ହେଇଗଲା।

7. In the garden, all the roses he loved turned into hard, yellow, scentless golden flowers.


ତାଙ୍କ ଉଦ୍ୟାନରେ ଯେତେ ଗୋଲାପ ସବୁ କଠିନ, ପୀତ ଓ ସୁଗନ୍ଧହୀନ ସୁନା ଫୁଲରେ ପରିଣତ ହେଲେ।

8. During breakfast, Midas found that everything he tried to eat or drink — coffee, eggs, fish, bread, and butter — turned into gold and became uneatable.


ସକାଳ ଖାଦ୍ୟ ଖାଇବା ସମୟରେ ମିଡାସ ଦେଖିଲେ ଯେ ସେ ଯାହା ଖାଇବା ବା ପିଇବାକୁ ଚେଷ୍ଟା କଲେ — କଫି, ଆଣ୍ଡା, ମାଛ, ପାଉରୁଟି ଓ ମଖନ — ସବୁ ସୁନା ହେଲା ଓ ଖାଇବାଯୋଗ୍ୟ ନ ରହିଲା।

9. His daughter Marygold came crying because all her roses had turned into gold.


ତାଙ୍କ ଝିଅ ମେରିଗୋଲ୍ଡ କାନ୍ଦୁଥିଲା କାରଣ ତାଙ୍କ ସମସ୍ତ ଗୋଲାପ ସୁନା ହେଇଗଲା।

10. When Midas tried to comfort and kissed her, she herself turned into a golden statue.


ମିଡାସ ତାକୁ ସାନ୍ତ୍ବନା ଦେଇ ଚୁମ୍ବନ କରିଲେ, ତାହା ସହିତ ମେରିଗୋଲ୍ଡ ନିଜେ ସୁନା ମୂର୍ତ୍ତିରେ ପରିଣତ ହେଲା।

11. Midas then realized the terrible consequences of his greed — his wish had brought him misery instead of happiness.
ତାପରେ ମିଡାସ ବୁଝିଲେ ଯେ ତାଙ୍କ ଲୋଭର ଭୟାବହ ପରିଣାମ କି; ତାଙ୍କ ଇଚ୍ଛା ତାଙ୍କୁ ସୁଖ ନୁହେଁ, ଦୁଃଖ ଆଣିଦେଇଛି।
