1. Summary
Narrative text is a text focusing specific participants. Its social function is to

tell stories, entertain the readers ad show moral values indirectly. There are many kinds

of narrative or story such as fairy tale, folktale, legends, myths, etc. There are several
important things to consider when creating a narrative text, namely:

a. Generic structure, which consists of orientation which functions as an 1)
introduction part of the text; 2) complication, namely the part which explores the

conflict among the characters; and the last is 3) resolution, namely the part when
the conflict tends to be decreased and ended.

b. Language features, which consists of the use of specific nouns to mention people

and things in the story; the use of adjectives; the use of time connectives; the use of
adverbs and adverbial; and the last is the use of past tense.

Another function of narrative text apart from entertaining the reader is to convey a
moral message indirectly to the reader about everyday life.
