When God made the first man, he put him on a beautiful garden, the Garden of Eden. Here Adam lived din peace with all the animals. God gave Adam eternal (永恒的) life. But Adam was lonely in the garden, so God made Eve. When Adam was asleep one night, God took a rib (肋骨) from him and made Eve, the first woman.

Garden you have everything. But you cannot have one thing: you cannot eat the apples from the Tree of Knowledge.”

One day Satan came to the Garden. He changed into a snake and went to live in the Tree of Knowledge. When Eve came near the tree one day, the snake called her.

He gave her and apple and said, “Take this apple and eat it. Don’t listen to the God. Eat it.” After Eve took a bite, she took the apple to Adam. He was afraid, but Eve repeated again and again: It’s good. Here, eat it. Why not? So h e finally ate the apple.

Before they ate the apple, Adam and Eve didn’t know that they were naked (裸体的). But now they were ashamed and covered their bodies with leaves. God was angry with them. He said, “Leave the Garden. You cannot stay here.”

When Adam and Eve left the garden, they had their first experience of pain and hard work in the cold hard world outside.
