Narrative Text

A narrative text that entertains and instructs the readers. It entertains because it deals with the unusual and unexpected development of events. It instructs because it teaches readers that problems should be confronted, and attempts made to resolve them. The text incorporates patterns of behavior that are generally highly valued.

The text is organized to include:

• a stage that introduces the main character/s in a setting of time and place;

• a sequence of events, which may begin in a usual pattern, is changed in some way so that the pattern of events becomes a problem for one or more of the characters. The events are evaluated by the character/s, thus making it clear to the reader that a crisis has developed;

• the problem is resolved or attempted to be resolved; and

• a stage which makes explicit how the character has changed and what has been learned from the experience.

The grammatical features include:

o use of particular nouns to refer or to describe the particular people, animals and things that the story is about;

o use of adjectives to build noun groups to describe the people, animals or things in the story;

o use of time connectives and conjunctions to sequence events through time;

o use of adverbs and adverbial phrases to locate the particular events;

o use of past tense action verbs to indicate the actions; and

o use of saying and thinking verbs to indicate what characters are feeling, thinking or saying.

Example :

Kyai Jegod

Once upon a time there was a king who ruled Mataram Kingdom. His name is Amangkurat IV. He was the grandfather of Sultan. He often meditated in a nearby forest, called Garjitawati. One day, when a gardener was gathering grass for his cattle in the forest, he looked for some water because it was so hot.

 He found a small pond and when he was going to drink some water from it, a dragon came out of the underwater, but it was so friendly to him. The dragon said that if Sultan wanted to build his palace, it was supposed to be located in that forest. 

Then it disappeared. Then Sultan started to build the palace in that forest. He demanded strong and old woods and the forest where those woods lied was said to be home of genies and spirits. His lumberjacks could not find anything to eat and the only thing they could have were some rice and water for three days, or sometimes they could not have anything.

 Then Sultan started to build the palace in that forest. He demanded strong and old woods and the forest where those woods lied was said to be home of genies and spirits. His lumberjacks could not find anything to eat and the only thing they could have were some rice and water for three days, or sometimes they could not have anything. Then Sultan ordered that the main pole in the palace’s hall had to be built from special wood, which would give strong impression.

 One night, a servant who was sleeping in the forest heard loud and deep voice. The voice introduced itself as Kyai Jegod. The servant saw that Kyai Jegod was an old, tall, and massive tree. He said that he would voluntarily let himself be cut to make the main pole so that he could stay inside it forever. The servant told it to Sultan and Sultan let Kyai Jegod stay inside it forever, while Kyai Jegod became the protector of that palace since then.

She gave each a little piece of bread, and said, "There is something for your dinner, but do not eat it up before then, for you will get nothing else." 

       Gretel took the bread under her apron, as Hansel had the pebbles in his pocket. Then they all set out together on the way to the forest. 

      When they had walked a short time, Hansel stood still and peeped back at the house, and did so again and again. His father said, "Hansel, what are you looking at there and staying behind for? Pay attention, and do not forget how to use your legs." 

     "Ah, father," said Hansel, "I am looking at my little white cat, which is sitting up on the roof, and wants to say good-bye to me." 

       The wife said, "Fool, that is not your little cat, that is the morning sun which is shining on the chimneys."

The brushwood was lighted, and when the flames were burning very high, the woman said, "Now, children, lay yourselves down by the fire and rest, we will go into the forest and cut some wood. When we have done, we will come back and fetch you away."

Finally the rabbit could stand it no longer and wanted to get her own back. One day, she went to the lion and said,’ Good day, respected older brother. Imagine it, I met an animal over there that looked exactly like you, and he said to me, ‘Is there anyone in the world who dare stand up to me? If there is, let him come and have a duel with me.

The lion flew into a rage and roared, ‘Where is he? Where is he?’

So the rabbit took the lion behind a hill and, not going to near himself, pointed to a deep well from a distance, and said, ‘He is down there, in the well.’

The lion hastened to the well and glared angrily into it. Yes, there was his rival- as the rabbit said the image of himself- who even glared back at him angrily.

The lion showed his teeth and lashed out with his paws to scare his rival – and his enemy in the well retaliated!

It was a hot day and the lion laid fast asleep in the forest.  Suddenly, a little mouse ran up to his nose. The lion woke up and caught the mouse in his paw.

“Please let me go,” begged the frightened mouse. “All right,”said the lion. “But don’t disturb me again.” Then he let the little mouse free. “Thank you,” the mouse said. I will never forget your kindness. I might even pay you back one day.” The lion only laughed. “How can a tiny mouse help me?” he thought. He rolled over and went back to sleep.

Some time later, the lion was caught in a net. He roared loudly. Deep in the forest, little mouse heard him. “the lion is in trouble,” it said. “I must go and help him.” The mouse soon found the lion. It began to bite the ropes of the net. Its sharp teeth soon made a big hole in the net. Before long, the lion was out of the net.

“Thank you for saving my life, litle mouse,” said the king of the beasts. He felt so embarrassed.
