Surely you often read fiction in the form of short stories, novels, or story books, right? In Indonesian, these writings are referred to as narrative texts which aim to entertain the readers. Same is the case with English. Narrative text is an article that is usually conveyed chronologically. The target audience for narrative text is different. If it is targeted for children under five to elementary school, usually the story will have positive values ​​that can be learned. If the target audience is adolescents and adults, the stories tend to be longer and more complex. The genre of narrative text also varies, including:

Fairytale 

Fable

Myth

Roman

History

Romance

Horror

Characteristics of Narrative Text

To better understand the use of narrative text, let's explore its characteristics .  

Specific character

In a narrative, the author will create a specific character as the main character in the story. Not only the main character, but all the characters in the story will be written clearly starting from their name, shape, color, and character. For example Ariel the mermaid, the dwarves who have different characteristics, Dana the brave Moana.

Example of Narrative Text

Fox and A Cat

Orientation

One day a cat and a fox were having a conversation. The fox, who was a conceited creature, boasted how clever she was. 'Why, I know at least a hundred tricks to get away from our mutual enemies, the dogs,' she said.

Complication

'I know only one trick to get away from dogs,' said the cat. 'You should teach me some of yours!'

'Well, maybe some day, when I have the time, I may teach you a few of the simpler ones,' replied the fox airily.

Just then they heard the barking of a pack of dogs in the distance. The barking grew louder and louder - the dogs were coming in their direction! At once the cat ran to the nearest tree and climbed into its branches, well out of reach of any dog. 'This is the trick I told you about, the only one I know,' said the cat. 'Which one of your hundred tricks are you going to use?'

Resolution

The fox sat silently under the tree, wondering which trick she should use. Before she could make up her mind, the dogs arrived. They fell upon the fox and tore her to pieces.
