If you want to describe an imaginative experience, you will write a narrative. This kind of writing has a definite structure. First you need to write an introduction that sets the scene: this is called an orientation. This is when you establish the main character and when the story begins to take place. Then you write the series of events. This is the main body of the narrative - we call this the complication. And finally, you will finish with sentences that will form a satisfactory ending or conclusion. This is called the resolution.
Ah Fong beats the pirates
Ah Fong shook the sleep from his eyes. His father would already be out on the South China Sea, catching fish to feed the family and sell in the market. Everyone in his village on Cheung Chau had been worried for weeks. There were rumours that pirates had been hiding their stolen treasure somewhere on the island and that was dangerous for everyone.
It was a beautiful day, so Ah Fong decided to go for a walk. He strolled through the swaying bamboo and along the beach. As he began to climb a hill, a hand came over his mouth. Another grabbed him roughly and threw him to the ground. He had been captured by pirates.
They carried him to their secret cave and tied him to a chair. Ah Fong looked around him and saw boxes full of jewels and money. After a while, one of the pirates came to him and said: 'Tonight, there are no ships in the channel, so we are going to rob everyone in your village.' Ah Fong knew he had to escape, but how?
As the light began to fade, the pirates got ready to go to the village. Ah Fong looked around. There was a sword on the ground and he could just reach it with his left foot. Skilfully he moved the sword so that he could rub it against the rope around his wrists and cut it.
His plan worked! Ah Fong knew a shortcut and sprinted as fast as he could to warn his family and the rest of the village. He was just in time. After being warned, the villagers hid in the trees. When the pirates arrived, they were taken by surprise and captured.
