Explanation:

Based on the criteria provided in the image, a claim is based on opinion and can be easily agreed or disagreed upon. The statement "King Midas from 'The Golden Touch' loves his daughter more than gold" is an interpretation (opinion) about King Midas' feelings. It can be debated (agreed or disagreed with). The other two statements: "King Midas has a daughter in 'The Golden Touch' by Nathaniel Hawthorne" and "King Midas is a character in 'The Golden Touch' by Nathaniel Hawthorne" are factual (based on the content of the story) and difficult to effectively argue against, so they are not claims.

Answer:

King Midas from "The Golden Touch" loves his daughter more than gold.
