c. Recount Text

Recount text is one of the genres in genre based approach taught in Indonesian curriculum. Recount text is one of the writing texts in English which deals with recount experiences happening in the past. Anderson 2000: 48 stated that a recount is a text retelling past events sequentially. The purpose of this text is to inform the audience a description of what and when an event occured. There are several language features of recount text according to Anderson 2000. The first is using the “past tense to retell the events” in making sentences because it tells the past evidence. Secondly, it uses proper nouns. Moreover, it also uses “descriptive words to give details about who, what, where and how” in the form of adverb and adverbial phrases to express time, place and manner. The last is using the “words that show the order of events for example, first, next, then” or conjunction and time connectives to sort the event or events. These features can be the consideration of both writing and comprehending recount texts. In comprehending recount text, there is a generic structure that must be realized while reading the text. Structure of recount text is divided into three parts such as orientation, events and reorientation as stated by Anderson 2000. The first is orientation, the author tells an introduction in the form of information about who, where, when the event or events that happened in the past. In second part are events, the author recounts the events which are usually written in chronological order. It also consists of personal comments about the event or events recounted in the ... “sequence of events that recount the past in the order in which the events occured”. The reorientation is the stage of repetition introduction in the first line. Anderson called it as concluding paragraph. Repetition should not be the summary of all events. By knowing the about the structure of recount text, it can assist the reader to comprehend the passage.
