In this paper, we consider with the large time behavior of solutions of the Cauchy problem to the one-dimensional compressible micropolar fluid model, where the far field states are prescribed. When the corresponding Riemann problem for the Euler system admits the solution consisting of contact discontinuity and rarefaction waves, it is shown that the combination wave corresponding to the contact discontinuity, with rarefaction waves is asymptotically stable provided that the strength of the combination wave and the initial perturbation are suitably small. This result is proved by using elementary L²-energy methods.
