点石成金的故事 篇一：Midas Touch 点石成金的故事 Midas Touch 这个谚语是来自古希腊神话。传说Midas（迈达斯）是Phrygia的国王，他統治Phrygia人民，种植闻名遐迩的玫瑰花。有一次因为他的殷勤招待森林之王，所以就得到了一个愿望。你们猜他的心愿是什么？原来就是得到点石成金的本领。所以，任何他点到的东西都可以变成黄金。不过这样却让他非常后悔，因为除了食物之外，他的女儿也变成了金子。过了不久，Midas恳求神仙使他从他那愿望中解脱出来，因為他饥渴交加，快死了。 所以，后来当人们称赞别人懂得生财之道的时候，就会说他拥有了Midas touch了。 This old saying comes form Greece myth. Midas is the king of Phrygia. Midas has a gift – everything he touches turns to gold. But he soon learns that an excessive love of riches squeezes the truly valuable things out of life. One day, while walking in his garden, he saw an elderly satyr (forest god ,half man half beast,)asleep in the flowers. Taking pity on the old fellow, King Midas treat him great courtesy and let him go without punishment. When the god Dionysus (酒神, 迪奥尼索司) heard about it, he rewarded King Midas by granting him one wish. The king thought for only a second and then said I wish for everything I touch to turn to gold.quot; And so it was. The beautiful flowers in his garden turned toward the sun for light, but when Midas approached and touched them, they stood rigid and gold. The king grew hungry and thin, for each time he tried to eat, he found that his meal had turned to gold. His lovely daughter, at his loving touch, turned hard and fast to gold . His water, his bed, his clothes, his friends, and eventually the whole palace was gold. King Midas saw that soon his whole kingdom would turn to gold unless he did something right away. He asked Dionysus to turn everything back to the way it had been and take back his golden touch. Because the king was (来自:www.zaidian.cOm 书 业网)ashamed and very sad, Dionysus took pity on him and granted his request.

And as long as he lived, he rejoiced in all that was simple and natural. 篇二：要给学生点石成金手指 要给学生点石成金的手指 古老的童话时代，一个老人和一个孩子，老人用手指把石头点成了金子。老人说：“孩子，你愿意拿多少，我都可以给你。”孩子却摇摇头说：“我要有你那样的手指。”这是点石成金的故事。 在二十一世纪第一个暑假，在赴北师大学习时，结识了
