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.

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 Rabbit’s Tail Story” Beserta Terjemahannya.
Contoh Narrative Text – The Rabbit’s Tail
The Rabbit’s Tail Story
Many years ago, rabbits had long tails, not short ones, and crocodiles had tongues.
One such long-tailed rabbit lived near a pond. He drank water from the pond and the grass nearby.
Now, in the pond lived a crocodile. The crocodile saw the rabbit eating grass and drinking water, and he thought how nice it would be to eat the rabbit.
One day the crocodile swam very close to the edge of the pond. He lay still in the water, hoping that the rabbit wouldn’t see him. When the rabbit came to drink
, the crocodile opened his mouth wide. Then he closed it with a snap. The rabbit was caught between the crocodile’s sharp teeth!
Of course, the rabbit was very frightened, but he did not want the crocodile to know this. “I’m not afraid of you,” said the rabbit. “I’m only afraid of animals that roar. Everyone knows that crocodiles can’t roar, so you can’t frighten me.
When the crocodile heard this, he became very angry. He wanted to show the rabbit that he could roar as fiercely as a tiger. And so, the crocodile opened his mouth to roar. When the crocodile opened his mouth, the clever rabbit jumped free. As he jumped, the rabbit’s sharp toe-nails caught the crocodile’s tongue and tore it out.
The crocodile tried to catch the rabbit again, but his great teeth only snapped off the end of the rabbit’s tail. Again and again the crocodile tried to catch the rabbit, but the rabbit was too quick for him. Sometimes the crocodile caught a piece of the rabbit’s tail, but he could never roar at the rabbit because he had lost his tongue.
That is why rabbit today have short tail, and crocodiles have no tongue.
Terjemahannya
Cerita Ekor Kelinci
Dahulu kala, kelinci memiliki ekor yang panjang, bukan yang pendek, dan buaya memiliki lidah.
Salah satu kelinci berekor panjang tinggal di dekat kolam. Ia minum air dari kolam dan rumput di dekatnya.
Sekarang, di kolam itu tinggal seekor buaya. Buaya melihat kelinci makan rumput dan minum air, dan ia berpikir betapa menyenangkannya memakan kelinci.
Suatu hari buaya berenang sangat dekat ke tepi kolam. Ia berbaring diam di dalam air, berharap kelinci tidak melihatnya. Ketika kelinci datang untuk minum
, buaya membuka mulutnya lebar-lebar. Kemudian ia menutupnya dengan sekali jentikan. Kelinci itu terjepit di antara gigi-gigi buaya yang tajam!
Tentu saja, kelinci itu sangat ketakutan, tetapi ia tidak ingin buaya mengetahui hal ini. “Aku tidak takut padamu,” kata kelinci. “Aku hanya takut pada binatang yang mengaum. Semua orang tahu bahwa buaya tidak bisa mengaum, jadi kamu tidak bisa membuatku takut.
Ketika buaya mendengar ini, ia menjadi sangat marah. Ia ingin menunjukkan kepada kelinci bahwa ia dapat mengaum seganas harimau. Maka, buaya pun membuka mulutnya untuk mengaum. Ketika buaya membuka mulutnya, kelinci yang pintar itu melompat bebas. Saat ia melompat, kuku-kuku jari kaki kelinci yang tajam itu menjepit lidah buaya dan mencabiknya.
Buaya itu mencoba menangkap kelinci itu lagi, tetapi gigi-giginya yang besar hanya mematahkan ujung ekor kelinci itu. Berkali-kali buaya itu mencoba menangkap kelinci itu, tetapi kelinci itu terlalu cepat baginya. Kadang-kadang buaya itu berhasil menangkap sepotong ekor kelinci, tetapi ia tidak pernah bisa mengaum kepada kelinci itu karena ia telah kehilangan lidahnya.
Itulah sebabnya mengapa kelinci sekarang berekor pendek, dan buaya tidak punya lidah.
