Contoh Narrative Text – The Monkeys and the Men

The Monkeys and the Men Story

Long, long ago. There were many monkeys living in the forest around Chiengmai. Hunters used to go there from Bangkok to catch them. Some were sold to zoos, some to people who wanted them as pets, and others to people who liked monkey soup.

One day, a hunter caught many monkeys in his traps. They were all screaming and making a loud noise except one who sat very quite. “He must be a very unusual monkey.” The hunter said to himself, “I’ll keep him for myself.”

He sold all the other monkeys and kept this one in a big wooden cage in his house. He was very proud of him. When his friends came to visit him, he showed them the monkey. The monkey always sat very quietly in a corner of the cage.

“He’s very polite and well-behaved,” said his friends. “He’s like a human being. Why don’t you let him out of the cage? We’re sure he won’t run away.”

The hunter did this. As soon as he opened the door of the cage. The monkey ran away to the jungle at the back of the hunter’s house. He soon met some other monkeys. They were interested in him, as a monkey who had been caught by hunter seldom returned.

“What happened?” they asked him. “What was it like living in the monkey hunter’s house?”

The monkey scratched his head and ate a banana before replying to them. “I lived in a cage,” he said. “I had a good chance to watch the hunter and his friends very closely. First of all, they talk a lot. They all talked at the same time. Some of them played silly games. They threw away food they didn’t eat and left it lying around.”

The monkey’s new friends did not want to hear any more. They expected the monkey would tell them something more interesting. They started chatting among themselves and eating bananas and throwing away the skin. Some chased their own tails and scratched their heads.

“Wait,” the monkey called to them. “I haven’t finished yet.”

“we don’t want to hear any more,” the other monkeys said.

“The hunter and his friends don’t seem to be any different from us.”

Kisah Monyet dan Manusia

Dahulu kala. Ada banyak monyet yang tinggal di hutan sekitar Chiengmai. Para pemburu biasa pergi ke sana dari Bangkok untuk menangkap mereka. Beberapa dijual ke kebun binatang, beberapa kepada orang-orang yang menginginkannya sebagai hewan peliharaan, dan yang lainnya kepada orang-orang yang menyukai sup monyet.

Suatu hari, seorang pemburu menangkap banyak monyet dalam perangkapnya. Mereka semua berteriak dan membuat suara keras kecuali satu yang duduk sangat tenang. “Dia pasti monyet yang sangat tidak biasa.” Pemburu itu berkata pada dirinya sendiri, “Aku akan menyimpannya untukku sendiri.”

Dia menjual semua monyet lainnya dan menyimpan yang satu ini di kandang kayu besar di rumahnya. Dia sangat bangga padanya. Ketika teman-temannya datang mengunjunginya, dia menunjukkan monyet itu kepada mereka. Monyet itu selalu duduk sangat tenang di sudut kandang.

“Dia sangat sopan dan berperilaku baik,” kata teman-temannya. “Dia seperti manusia. Mengapa kalian tidak membiarkannya keluar dari kandang? Kami yakin dia tidak akan lari.”

Pemburu itu melakukan ini. Begitu dia membuka pintu kandang. Monyet itu lari ke hutan di belakang rumah si pemburu. Ia segera bertemu dengan beberapa monyet lainnya. Mereka tertarik padanya, karena monyet yang telah ditangkap oleh si pemburu jarang kembali.

“Apa yang terjadi?” mereka bertanya kepadanya. “Bagaimana rasanya tinggal di rumah si pemburu monyet?”

Monyet itu menggaruk kepalanya dan memakan pisang sebelum menjawab mereka. “Saya tinggal di dalam kandang,” katanya. “Saya memiliki kesempatan yang baik untuk mengamati si pemburu dan teman-temannya dengan sangat dekat. Pertama-tama, mereka banyak bicara. Mereka semua berbicara pada saat yang sama. Beberapa dari mereka memainkan permainan konyol. Mereka membuang makanan yang tidak mereka makan dan membiarkannya tergeletak di sekitar.”

Teman-teman baru monyet itu tidak ingin mendengar lagi. Mereka berharap monyet itu akan memberi tahu mereka sesuatu yang lebih menarik. Mereka mulai mengobrol di antara mereka sendiri dan memakan pisang serta membuang kulitnya. Beberapa mengejar ekor mereka sendiri dan menggaruk-garuk kepala mereka.

“Tunggu,” monyet itu memanggil mereka. “Saya belum selesai.”

“Kami tidak ingin mendengar lagi,” kata monyet lainnya. “Pemburu dan teman-temannya tampaknya tidak berbeda dari kita.”
