A Trip to the National Zoo and Aquarium
Yesterday, my family and I went to the National Zoo and Aquarium to visit the new Snow Cubs and the other animals.
In the morning, when we got to the Zoo and Aquarium there was a great big line, so we had to wait awhile to get in.
After we entered the zoo, we went straight to the enclosure for the Snow Cubs. My brother and I were so excited to see them. They were so cute and playful.
At lunchtime Dad decided to cook a bbq. He cooked sausages so we could have sausage sandwiches. Mum forgot the tomato sauce so we had to eat them plain.
In the afternoon, we visited the aquarium. My brother was excited to see the sharks and the tropical fish.
At the end of the day when we left we were going to go and get ice cream but we decided we were too tired so we drove straight home. (Sumber text)

Teks recount di atas terdiri dari 6 paragraf. Paragraf pertama itu disebut orientation, menjelaskan tentang apa, siapa, kapan, dimana dan mengapa. Sedangkan paragraf kedua hingga kelima, itu serangkaian events atau urutan kegiatannya. Lalu, paragraf terakhir disebut reorientation, isinya bisa kesimulan atau komentar terhadap pengalamannya.
