4.1.1 Accident
In this first topic, there are nine texts written by the students. Those nine
eleven data represent the generic structure of narrative; orientation complication resolution evaluation.
The sign shows the order of the
element in the generic structure Halliday and Hasan, 1989. Moreover, Orientation is the part where the characters and setting of the story in the texts are
introduced. Complication is part where the problems in the story arisen. Resolution is the part where the problems in the story is solved, either in happy or
in sad ending. The last is evaluation. This part explains the evaluation through problem arisen, and ending’s story resume. The two data of text 1 and text 2
completely represent full part of narrative’s generic structure. Meanwhile, other
seven data represent three main part of narrative, orientation complication resolution
only. Those parts of narrative deeply elaborate the role of elements in narrative story, such as; characters, plot, and setting.
Hence, Kane 2000: 363-364 elaborates that characters and action are completely significant to the story of narrative that the students can build many
kinds of characters particularly an actual people in their stories. For instance:
1. On 15
th
of May 2013, I woke up and doing my daily activities in the morning.
Text 1 2.
A few years ago, when I was in Senior High School my father got an accident.
Text 5 3.
One day, there was a kid about five years old. text 8
Most of the stories use personal reference “I”, among those nine data. Meanwhile, there are three data using other references in their texts, such as;
father, kid, and civil servant. It means that all of the students are able to apply the use of characters in their texts. Moreover, all of the texts in this first topic
constitute the simplest chronology of narrative. Their stories start from the first to the end, as written follows.
