- 1. NARRATIVE REPORT A group of soccer players racing aimlessly around a field kicking and heading the ball, do not make a soccer game. Playing soccer requires teamwork. Similarly, words and phrases thrown carelessly together do not make sentences. The parts of sentences must work together just as a team does. All parts of a sentence must work together for the sentence to express a complete thought. In every sentence, there is always two essential parts: a subject and a predicate. The subject of a sentence is the part about which something is being said. In a sentence, you can find the subject by asking yourself who or what is doing something or about whom or what something is being said. The subject could be considered as simple, compound and complete subject. The simple subject is the main word or group of word that tells whom or what the sentence is about. The compound subject contains two or more subjects that have the same verb. The complete subject is consisting of all the words that tell whom or what a sentence is about. The subject does not always come at the beginning of a sentence- it may be in the middle or in the end. In most cases, the subject has come before the predicate. Most sentences are written in this order, called natural order. However, when the order of the subject and predicate is reversed or inverted, then all or part of the predicate appears before the subject. This sentence is said to be in an inverted order.
