Smile What are some tips to write a short narrative in 30 mins test?

Hi, I would like some helps on writing a short narrative in an extremely short amount of time (30 mins)! I only started to learn English four years ago so I have limited vocabulary and poor grammar and spelling. Therefore, I would like some tips on how to structure a good short narrative as I don't want to fail miserably!
Thank you!

And since you are only given a considerably short time, work on something your are completely familiar with. This will make the task easy.
