亲爱的大卫:
我怕你会觉得我不可原谅过失没有回答你的来信7日12月早,但是当我告诉你原因,我相信你会相信忽视是可以原谅的。你的信到的时候,我只是在香港。
作为我的家庭不能转告我我不在的时候,它一直在,因此,躺在我的桌子上,直到那一刻,我欣然接受。现在我要赶紧做的第一件事就是给你写信这些几行表达我深深的遗憾。
我喜欢许多愉快的景象在我的旅行。我将很高兴给你一个账户,当我看到你下一个。

尊敬的Patent教授:
我非常遗憾地告知您我没有完成您上周布置的读书报告,因为几天前我突然生病了。
过去的几天中我一直持续高烧,住在医院,因此无法进行任何学术活动。随信是医生的诊断书。
如果您能再给一周时间来完成它我将感激不尽,因为现在我的身体正在好转。希望您能理解我的处境并接受我的道歉。
您真诚的,李明

亲爱的约翰:
我非常期待着你来参观我们的城市。这么多年来我们一直通信,我早就想见到你了。但是很抱歉我不能按时到机场接你。
因为你的飞机是一大早就到达机场,而我最早也要1小时后才能到。你能不能在旅客休息室等我,你可以利用这段时间吃早饭。
随便说一句,因为我们没过面,我得告诉你怎么找我:我大概1.65米,长发。另外我会穿一件白色的裙子,手上拿一份中国日报。
希望早点见到你。
你真挚的:
艾丽丝
