Lets Make a Summary

• A recount text is a text that tells about a part
  of experience. A recount text has an orientation,
  a series of events in chronological order,
  personal remarks on the events, and a
  re-orientation that rounds off the sequence of
  events. In the text, you will find words and
  phrases used to start, connect a sentence with
  the next one, and end your composition.

When Sau Ling was a young man, a fortune-teller
came to the house. "You must send your son away,"
he said. "One day he will become a thief and
cause you a lot of trouble." Mr and Mrs Lin were
very sad to hear this. They believed what the
fortune-teller said. They gave Sau Ling some
clothes and money and sent him away. Several
years later, Sau Ling was having a meal in an inn
several miles from Taipei. He put his bag on the
floor near his table. After finishing his meal,
he picked up his bag. "That's strange!" he
thought, "It feels so heavy."He looked inside. It
was full of small gold bars. Then he realized
that someone had taken his bag by mistake and
left another bag, in its place.

without saying a word. Mr and Mrs Lin never
believed in fortune-teller after that. Sau Ling
took them to live with him and they were very
happy and contented until the end of their
lives. Taken from Favorite

Lets Make a Summary
Every text has its own structure. The structure
of narrative text consists of three parts
complication, and resolution. Orientation
describes scene and introduces the participants
of the story. Complication begins when there is a
problem in resolution. The structure of narrative
text occurs in the text variously. A text may
have only one complication and resolution but
another text may have more than complication and
resolution.
