Hallo Everybody…
This time I will share an example of narrative text that the story is very interesting and full of moral value. I’m sure my friend has understood about this text because this text has been delivered to the students in Junior High School and repeated again in Senior High School.

But, if you want to learn more in detail about this kind of text, you can read this explanation below :

– Narrative Text (Complete Explanation)
– Narrative Text (Penjelasan Dan Contoh)

Ok, In this post I will give you a little explanation about Narrative Text.

I am sure you must be often to tell the story that you just hear, watch or even your own imaginative story to someone, good friends, relatives, parents, etc. Well, actually what we do when telling the story we experienced is an applicative example of the Narrative Text.

Ok, I will tell the definition of Narrative text. It is “An imaginative story to entertain the reader” For example, Cinderella, Snow White, Monkey and Crocodiles, Malin Kundang, The Legend of Tangkuban Prahu Montain, etc.

Then, Kinds of Narrative Text are Fable, Fairly Tales, Folktales, Legend, Mith. That’s a brief description of Narrative text from me.

But, In this time I will not give you a complete explanation about Narrative Text, Here I just want to share an example of Narrative text, because if we read many example of it, we will have a better understanding about it. We will also have some collection of story that we can tell to our students, friends, family, or our children.

Oh ya, dari tadi kok saya pake bahasa inggris ya… 🙂 Paham kan sobat penjelasan saya di atas…. Oke langsung saja berikut Contoh Narrative Text dengan judul “The tiger, the monkey, and the mousedeer story” Beserta Terjemahannya.

Contoh Narrative Text

Why the sea is salt
(Favourite stories from Taiwan)

There were two brothers who lived in a village by the sea, the elder was called Chi Hua and the younger Chi Ming.

When their father died. Chi Hua took all the family property for himself. His brother had nothing. Chi Ming was poor and worked hard every day to collect firewood to make a living. One night, he had a dream. In this dream, an old man came to him.

“I am the god of stone,” he said. “I want to help you because you are honest and hard-working. If you will climb to the top of the mountain behind your village, you will find a stone gate there. Open the gate and go inside. There are many fairies living there. Ask them for anything you want and they will give it to you. Don’t be greedy, however. Ask for the stone grindstone which you will find there. It is a magic grindstone. Whatever you want, it will make for you.”

The next day, Chi Ming climbed the mountain. He carried a basket of food with him. When he arrived at the stone gate, he went inside. He found himself in a large cave. There were many fairies living there. However, they did not have enough food to eat. He gave them the basket of food and they were very pleased.

“You can take away all the gold and silver you can carry.” They said to him.

“Please give me instead the magic grindstone,” Chi Ming asked.

The fairies handed over the grindstone to him. Chi Ming thanked them and carried it away with him.

When he returned home. He felt hungry. He asked the grindstone for some food. In no time, a wonderful meal appeared on the table. From that day on, everything he wanted was given to him by the magic grindstone.

Not long afterwards, his elder brother, Chi Hua, heard of Chi Ming’s good fortune. While Chi Ming was sleeping he crept into the house and stole the magic grindstone.

He sailed away in a little boat with the magic grindstone.

“what shall I ask for?” he thought. “I know. Everyone need salt. I’ll ask the grindstone to give me as much salt as I want. I’ll soon become a rich man.”

He then asked the grindstone for the salt, “All right,” said the grind stone.it started grinding away and the boat soon filled with salt. There was alt everywhere. But Chi Hua was so greedy that he did not want to tell the grindstone to stop.

Finally, the boat sank under the weight of the salt and Chi Hua was drowned.

From the day on. The grindstone continued to make salt at the bottom of the sea. That is why the sea is so salty.

Mengapa laut itu asin
(Cerita favorit dari Taiwan)

Dahulu kala ada dua bersaudara yang tinggal di sebuah desa di tepi laut. Si sulung bernama Chi Hua dan si bungsu bernama Chi Ming.

Ketika ayah mereka meninggal, Chi Hua mengambil semua harta keluarga untuk dirinya sendiri. Kakaknya tidak punya apa-apa. Chi Ming miskin dan bekerja keras setiap hari untuk mengumpulkan kayu bakar demi mencari nafkah. Suatu malam, ia bermimpi. Dalam mimpi itu, seorang lelaki tua mendatanginya.

“Aku adalah dewa batu,” katanya. “Aku ingin membantumu karena kamu jujur ​​dan pekerja keras. Jika kamu mendaki ke puncak gunung di belakang desamu, kamu akan menemukan gerbang batu di sana. Buka gerbang itu dan masuklah ke dalam. Ada banyak peri yang tinggal di sana. Mintalah apa pun yang kamu inginkan dan mereka akan memberikannya kepadamu. Namun, jangan serakah. Mintalah batu asah yang akan kamu temukan di sana. Itu adalah batu asah ajaib. Apa pun yang kamu inginkan, itu akan menghasilkan sesuatu untukmu.”

Keesokan harinya, Chi Ming mendaki gunung. Ia membawa sekeranjang makanan bersamanya. Ketika tiba di gerbang batu, ia masuk ke dalam. Ia mendapati dirinya berada di sebuah gua besar. Ada banyak peri yang tinggal di sana. Akan tetapi, mereka tidak memiliki cukup makanan untuk dimakan. Ia memberi mereka sekeranjang makanan dan mereka sangat senang.

“Kalian dapat mengambil semua emas dan perak yang dapat kalian bawa.” Kata mereka kepadanya.

“Tolong berikan saya batu asah ajaib sebagai gantinya,” pinta Chi Ming.

Para peri menyerahkan batu asah kepadanya. Chi Ming berterima kasih kepada mereka dan membawanya pergi bersamanya.

Ketika kembali ke rumah, ia merasa lapar. Ia meminta batu asah untuk memberinya makanan. Dalam waktu singkat, hidangan lezat muncul di atas meja. Sejak hari itu, semua yang diinginkannya diberikan kepadanya oleh batu asah ajaib.

Tidak lama kemudian, kakak laki-lakinya, Chi Hua, mendengar tentang keberuntungan Chi Ming. Ketika Chi Ming sedang tidur, ia menyelinap ke dalam rumah dan mencuri batu asah ajaib.

Ia berlayar dengan perahu kecil sambil membawa batu asah ajaib.

“Apa yang harus kuminta?” pikirnya. “Aku tahu. Semua orang butuh garam. Aku akan meminta batu asah untuk memberiku garam sebanyak yang aku mau. Aku akan segera menjadi orang kaya.”

Dia kemudian meminta batu asah untuk memberikan garam, “Baiklah,” kata batu asah. Batu asah itu mulai menggiling dan perahu segera terisi garam. Garam berserakan di mana-mana. Namun Chi Hua sangat rakus sehingga dia tidak ingin memberi tahu batu asah untuk berhenti.

Akhirnya, perahu tenggelam karena berat garam dan Chi Hua pun tenggelam.

Sejak hari itu, batu asah terus membuat garam di dasar laut. Itulah sebabnya laut begitu asin.
