The question is, Write a 3- to 5-sentence summary of one myth you just heard before moving on to the next page to continue the lesson. And the thing is about King Midas. Can someone help me?
Answered by Writeacher
If you write the summary, I'll check it for you.

The myth itself is in your reading assignment, correct?
Answered by Elaina
Okay, i'll write a summary.
And no, Myths and legends is a voice recording of a video. And i have to write a 3-5 sentences about about what that video says.
Answered by Writeacher
OK, so you should be able to replay that video as many times as you need, right?
Answered by Elaina
Okay, here is what i got.
The most famous King Midas is popularly remembered in Greek mythology for his ability to turn everything he touched into gold. This came to be called the golden touch, or the Midas touch. The Phrygian city Midaeum was presumably named after this Midas, and this is probably also the Midas that according to Pausanias founded Ancyra. to Aristotle, legend held that Midas died of starvation as a result of his "vain prayer" for the gold touch.

Should i add or take away anything?

<b>Do. Not. Plagiarize.</b>

If you are not clear on what plagiarism is and how NOT to plagiarize from a source, read through this entire webpage from Purdue University:

Close the Wikipedia window, listen again to the myth video you were given, and try again.

Answered by Elaina
Here. I tried this.

King Midas was a well known king. He was mainly known from a well known legend. Call, The Gold Touch. Or Midas Touch. The myth was named that because some people say he had a golden touch. And that anything he touched, turned to gold. But nobody could really find this out, That's why its a myth.

Anything i should add or take away?

You've only told who the myth is named for and the barest of reasons why. I hope that video tells what happened to him and how he reacted.
