The following is the arrangement of conflicts in Narrative Text:

- Problem, which is a paragraph or sentence
that begins to lead to the problem of the story.
- Conflict, after a problem arises, it will lead to

something more complex, then the story will
continue with conflict. In this section, the
audience will be curious about what happened
between one character and another.

- Climax, namely the peak of the conflict or the
problem begins to heat up and become tense which becomes the main focus
in the narrative text.

- Anti-climax, this section is also known as conflict reduction. So, the conflict
will decrease slowly and almost find a bright spot in the problem.
- Solution, as the name implies, is a solution, then the paragraph in the
solution section will explain the resolution of the conflict that has been

described previously.

Complications are divided into three conflicts, namely:

 Natural conflict = natural conflict or between universes.
 Social conflict = conflict between characters or actors.
 Psychological conflict = inner conflict or self.

1) Simple Past Tense

Why use the simple past tense? Because, the entire narrative text must be a story
that has happened before or a story in the past. The simple past tense is also
synonymous with showing an activity or event in the past. So the tenses most
commonly used in narrative text are the past tense with the change in the verb form
to Verb 2. Let’s check below:
