The factors that causes students difficulties in finding moral value were exception in the decoding process, previous knowledge, motivation or perseverance, high level cognitive skills, metacognition. Based on the result of questionnaire, it can be concluded, that most students were fluent in reading narrative texts in English because they often read narrative text. So, they can read the text in English easily. And then, most of students had problem in their previous knowledge, so they felt difficult to determine the moral value. Although most of students do not have problems in motivation or perseverance because they like to read narrative text, they do not know how to find the moral value in narrative text because they do not understand the story, so they felt difficult to determine the moral value. Furthermore, most of students have problems in their metacognition, because they must read the narrative text repeatedly to determine the moral value. If they read only once it is difficult to determine the moral value. Most of students felt difficult to understand the narrative text especially to determine the moral value if the text is not translated in Indonesian. And then, they must summarize the narrative text to determine the moral value, because they felt difficult to determine the moral value if they do not summarize the text.
