Dear Charlie,
Kindly excuse me for my not being able to see you off at the airport this Saturday as I have promised.
A major business partner of our company will be attending an important conference in Xiamen this weekend, and my boss finally chooses me to accompany him there to negotiate about a new transaction. I have just been informed of this plan and am happy about the decision—this is an opportunity to both display and enhance my abilities, so I am afraid I cannot be present at the airport.
Pursuing study overseas is an essential step in the accomplishment of your dream.
How I wish I could have the chance to share with you my personal feelings and suggestions before you are away! I hereby send you a gift to wish you good luck. Please forgive me.
Cordially,
Li Ming
Dear Prof. Patent,
I am very sorry to inform you that I did not manage to complete the book report you assigned last week, due to a sudden illness falling upon me a few days ago. For the past few days I have been in hospital with a continuous fever, which has thus prevented me from any academic activity. I hereby submit the doctor's note.
I would be very much obliged if you could grant me another week for the task, as my health is turning better.
Hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology.
Yours faithfully,
Li Ming

I do hope that you can understand my situation and accept my apology.
Yours sincerely,
I am so sorry the children behaved so badly when you were baby sitting for us last night. It must have been exhausting for you. I really don't know what got into them, though Jane was running a slight fever this morning, so it's possible that she wasn't feeling well.
I told them that if they were going to be so naughty, you would not baby sit them again, and Eric in particular became quite tearful. You really are their favorite baby sitter.
Eric and Jane have both promised that if you will give them another chance they will be "as good as gold." In any case, this is up to you. Please let me know if you would prefer not to take care of them again.
Dear David:
I am afraid that you will think me unpardonably negligent in not
having answered your letter dated 7, December sooner, but when I have told you the reason, I trust you will be convinced that the neglect was excusable. When your letter arrived, I was just in Hong Kong. As my family could not forward it to me during my absence, it has been, therefore, lying on my desk until the moment when I took it up. Now the first thing I have to hasten to do is to write to you these few lines to express my deep regret.
I enjoyed many pleasant sights during my trip. I shall be pleased to give you an account to of them when I see you next.
Sincerely yours,
Tom

Dear John,
I am eagerly looking forward to your visit to our city. After all these years of writing to each other, I can not wait to see you. However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport on time.
The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the earliest I can reach the airport will be about an hour after you land. Will you please wait for me in the arrival lounge? You can have breakfast while you wait.
By the way, as we have never met I must tell you home to identify me: I am of 165cm tall and have a long hair. In addition, I will wear a white skirt and carry a China Daily at hand.
Hope we can meet soon.
Sincerely yours,
Alice
DearMiss Morgan,
I am very sorry that I won’t be able to attend the lecture on American history tomorrow afternoon. I’m writing to tell you the reason for it.
My uncle is returning home from France, and I have promised to meet him at the airport at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon. You know I’m always as good as my word.
I am very interested in American society and history. I wonder if it is possible for the talk to be recorded, and if so, could I borrow the tape? It would mean a great deal to me to listen to the tape and learn what is covered in the talk. I sincerely hope you can understand me and accept my appologies.Once again, I am sorry for any inconcenience caused.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Dear Alice,
I am eagerly looking forward to your visit to our city. After all these years of writing to each other, I can not wait to see you. However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport on time.
The reason is that your flight will arrive at 9 o’clock on the morning of May 9, and unluckily our teacher has decided to give us an English test at that time. The test is important and we are all required to take it. So the earliest time when I can reach the airport will be about an hour after you land. Will you plese wait for me at the arrival lounge? You can have a rest while you wait.
By the way, as we have never met before, I must tell you I will wear a whiteT-shirt, with two red ballons in my hand that day so that you can recognize me easily. Thanks very much for your forgiveness and understanding. Hope we can meet soon.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
I apologize for the behavior of our second-grade classes at the dress rehearsal of your excellent show. They were certainly disruptive, and I was only amazed at how well your actors managed to keep going, in spite of the noise.
Their teachers have spoken to them, and the children have prepared cards and pictures for the cast, to express their own apologies. Will you please pass these on to Mrs. Doe and the cast?
In the meantime, I think we have learned from this experience that our second-grade students are too young to sit through a full-length show.
We will exclude them in the future, if you open dress rehearsals to us again. Our older students and staff certainly appreciate your kindness in this area very much.
Dear Tom,
I feel terribly sorry to tell you that our trip to Beijing next weekend will be rearranged due to my personal reason. I was informed just now that I entered the final of the CCTV English Speech Competition. And the final is to be held next week. The winner of this competition will get an opportunity to study in Harvard University. Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?
For years, I have been dreaming about studying abroad as an exchange student to learn/experience different cultures. Now the chanceis coming. I think that if you were me, you would grasp it as I do.
Is it possible for us to make another time to visit Beijing? I sincerely hope you can accept my apologies and understand me. Once again, I’m sorry for any inconvenience caused.
incerely yours,
Li Hua
Dear Ashley,
Please accept my deepest apologies for my mistake in regard to leaking customer information to people from the other department.
It was not my intention to create such an awkward and embarrassing situation for our department.
If there was any good that came out of this unfortunate experience, it is that I have grown and learned alternative approaches to these situations.
Please feel free to let me of your thoughts and concerns over this matter. You can reach me at email.
Sincerely,
Jim
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing this letter to apologize to you. I’m so sorry that we made a mistake about the shipment of vacuum cleaners.
Those vacuum cleaners we sent to you were meant to be sent to European countries, but as the old worker was retired, the new one wasn’t so experienced. Besides, the model number and the price of goods in March and July are so similar that the worker mistaken them.
I am awfully sorry for this and we promise you a replacement shipment. We will also give a 10% discount to compensate.
I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and I will try my best to avoid the same accident happening again.
Yours,
Eva

i am looking forward to hearing from you.

Dear Sarah,
I am terribly sorry to tell you that I am unable to attend your birthday part next Thursday evening. That is owing to the fact that my younger brother suddenly fell ill and was taken to a hospital this morning. I have to go there immediately and take care of him. As told by the doctor in charge, it will take around five days for him to recover and I have asked my boss for a leave.
I really regret that I cannot go to celebrate your birthday personally and would miss the perfect chance of enjoying myself with all our old friends. I have chosen a small gift for you and will send it to you tomorrow to show my best wishes. Besides, please give my regards to our friends when you meet them at the party.
Cordially,
Li Ming
I feel terrible about the damage John did to your garden. Being a gardener myself, I realize how much work you put into making it productive. I know I would be displeased if someone were to run carelessly through my carefully planted tomatoes.
John feels bad about what he did, and although he cannot repair the damage, he says he wants to compensate you by doing yard work for you this fall. If you agree, I think this would be a good lesson for John.
