因未能及时还书致歉 Unable to return borrowed book on time
Dear Kate:
Excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “Robinson Crusoe” which I read through with great interest. I had finished reading the book and was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. Never having seen the book, She was so interested in it that I had to retain it longer. However, I hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner.
Thanking you again for the loan.
Sincerely yours,
Tom
亲爱的凯特：
我迟迟未能归还您的那本《鲁滨逊飘流记》，请原谅。该书我读得津津有味。读完后，正预备归还您时，我的表妹来访，见这本书也感兴趣，定要借去一读。为了让别人也能分享您那本书所给予的乐趣，我不能及时归还。我想再延迟些日子奉还，谅您不会介意的。
再次感谢您的慷慨。
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
道歉信英语范文篇四
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 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 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 Alan,
I'm writing to apologize about last Thursday. I am terribly sorry that I didn't go to see you, for I lost my wallet. Anyway, I found it. But it was too late for the train. I had to take the bus. What a pity that I took a wrong one. It went to Milford. There, I waited for half an hour for a bus to Driffield. It was much worse that on the way to your home, the bus broke down. So I just went back home to Pigston. I really do apologize because I didn't speak to you on the phone, but it wasn't my fault. I tried several times, but there was no answer.
Anyway, how about next Thursday?
Love,
Tom
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 Mr. Karl,
Please accept our heartfelt apologies for the late delivery of goods to your company.
The delay resulted from a minor malfunction in our inventory system. However, we have had it resolved now. Your shipment will be sent out this afternoon. We are sure you will get them tomorrow.
We hope that you will forgive our minor mistake and we can continue our cooperation.
Yours sincerely,
KS Co.

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 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.
Dear David，
I’m writing this letter to express my sincerely appologies to you for losing the book you lent to me. I’m very appreciated you lent it to me. In order to give it back to you as soon as possible, I took it to the library yesterday. I also borrow some other books in the library before I left. Unluckily, when I arrived at my dormitory, I couldn’t find your book. I searched all my dormitory and the road from the dormitory to the library. The next day I also looked for the library. However, I couldn’t find your book. I’m sorry I can’t give back to you on time as I promised before. But I will buy a new one for you later.Hope you can accept my appologies.
Yours Sincerely,
Li Lei

Dear teacher:
I'm sorry to have taught you so much pain. I know it's time to write this letter, but it has been put off until today. I hope you can accept this belated apology.
Sensible since you know to respect teachers, respect every one who love us and we love the people, but they made you unhappy, sometimes we do not actively speak some wrong class or other, it's not that we don't know what is wrong, our own heart is empty, he was guilty not the answer, or is that know how to do but twisted but that share strength, sometimes, of course I mean sometimes would like to actively cooperate with the teacher, also know how to do with the teacher, but is not put into action, perhaps the adolescent's sake, we have this feeling, but to see the teacher very sad, tell the truth, our hearts are sad, do not want to make things like this. So, teacher, we will apologize today by writing letters. We are wrong, teacher, but we do love you!
Teacher, say so, not for us to make excuses, recall the past, primary school time, we just started school, as if the class answer the question is very relaxed, now don't know what happened......
Teacher, you hope for us, we know that you love us, love is a kind of expression can not use language easily and completely, it is deep, persistent, and even let you fly into a rage angry all this is for us, for our good, what the teacher does not love the students, but is you love the students make you angry, disappointed, think of this old heart of a Sese feeling, is guilty, guilty, said did not repent......
I thought deeply that it was all our fault, and even to say that we simply would not cherish it. This kind of psychology from our old habits, always can not go beyond their own, open minded. So we determined to repent, the teacher gave us the opportunity to turn this opportunity from you, not angry, let us use action to prove to you, we need your love, we deeply love you!
Your students:

I apologize for the damage my son did to your screen door. John has delivered newspapers for two years and this is the first glass he has broken. He is embarrassed and understands your frustration. Will you please have the glass repaired and give me the bill.
John will be over to personally apologize and pay for the repairs. You have been a good customer for John, and he looks forward to serving you as long as he has this paper route.
