Contoh Narrative Text:
Ali Baba
Once upon a time there were 40 cruel thieves who put their
stolen money and treasures in a cave. They went in the cave by saying ”Open
Sesame” to the cave entrance. A poor person, named Ali Baba saw them while they
were doing that, so he heard the opening word. After they left, he went toward
the cave and opened it. Suddenly he found a very large quantity of money and
golden treasures. He took some of it and went back home. After that he became a
rich man and his brother wanted to know how he became rich.
Ali Baba turned into the richest man in his village. His
evil brother was really jealous of him, and wanted to know how he could get
such a lot of money. Therefore, when Ali Baba went to the cave again to take
some more money, his brother followed him. He saw everything, and decided to go
back the next day to take some money for himself. The next morning he found a
lot of money in the cave, and he wanted to take all of them. Unfortunately,
when he was busy carrying the money to his house, the thieves came. The boss of
the thieves asked him how he knew about the cave. He told everything, but
unluckily they killed him and went to Ali Baba’s house.
After finding Ali Baba’s house, they made a plan to kill him
the following night. Some of the thieves hid in big jars, and the boss
pretended that he was a merchant who wanted to sell the jars to Ali Baba. Ali
Baba who was a kind man invited the boss of the thief to have lunch together.
After lunch they took a rest. Luckily, the house maid went
out of the house, and found that there were thieves inside the jars. She
finally boiled hot oil and poured it into the jars to kill all of them. The
boss of the thieves was caught, and put into prison.
Ali Baba was saved from the danger, and he finally lived
happily ever after with his maid who became his wife shortly after.

Long ago
in Java island, lived a famous animal, the mousedeer. The mousedeer was famous
of his cleverness, that he could always escape from troubles with his bright
minds. The mousedeer’s favourite food was the cucumber. He loved to eat juicy
cucumbers a lot, but the bad thing was he did not want to grow it himself, he
liked to steal them from the farmers.
The farmers disliked the mousedeer very much, since every time he wanted to harvest his cucumbers, the mousedeer had eaten them that the farmer could not get as many as he wanted. So that morning, before the farmer set out to his farm, he made a plan to catch the mousedeer with his wife.
That night, the farmer and his wife made a scarecrow. When they had completed the scarecrow, the farmer put a lot of glue on the scarecrow’s shirt and took it to the middle of the farm and put him there. This time, the farmer was sure, he was able to catch the naughty mousedeer.
Very early in the next morning, the mousedeer had already arrived in the farm. He was very surprised to see the farmer was already there. He did not know that it was only a scarecrow. So he was hiding behind the trees, and waited for the farmer to go away first from the farm before he came and took all the cucumbers he wanted. He waited for a long time, until he grew impatient. It was like the juicy cucumbers in th farm were calling his name to take them away with him. So he decided to come closer to the farm.
The more he looked at the ‘farmer’, the more he realized that it was not the farmer who stood there all along. It was just a scarecrow and did not move at all. The mousedeer was very angry for he was cheated. He approached the scarecrow and kicked the scarecrow. Remember, the farmer had already added some glue on the scarecrow’s body that made it very sticky.
When the mousedeer kicked the scarecrow, he could not let his feet of the scarecrow’s body. The mousedeer was panic. The harder he kicked, the stickier it got to his legs. Finally, the mousedeer was strapped to the scarecrow’s body. He couldn’t free himself. He cried and cried for help, but no one was there to help. When the farmer heard his cry, he quickly went to his farm and caught the mousedeer. No matter how the mousedeer begged for mercy and to let him go, the farmer refused to set him free.
